New bike - personalised plate ideas

[hedgier1]

I have "YQUE" if ya want it? advertised on trademe. Always get a pissed off look from cars when I buzz past in rush hour. hahaha

Are bike plates - when personalised - different size to car plates?

When I last looked at the order forms for personalised plates they didn't seem to have an option for choosing whether you wanted a car or bike plate.

Yes they do have the option. Once you choose a plate, it goes to another screen that indicates what it is for and the sizes involved. Cars, bikes and trailers all being different to eachother.

When are you getting the new toy ??

Likely a few weeks away... next month once the bits arrive to bling it up.

I dont see much point in mirror plate ideas as they would be hard to see going the other direction in a side mirror... and probably at a speed to high to read easily.

Given bikes dont have front plates visible from larger rear view mirrors, it kinda pours water on the idea.

I really don't understand the only 5 for a bike. Its personalised so already doesn't fit in to the "standard" and cars can have less than 6?

Bureaucracy.

I thinks its more to do with the fact the plate is already considerably smaller. 5 characters is still readable on the smaller plate. 6 might be a bit of a squeeze.

Cunning .Get a real fast bike then pick a plate every *555 er can remember.Are you sure you thought this through?

Absolutely thought through. I have had one ticket and cant afford another one depending on what I decide to pursue for getting back into work.

The plate is more for a point of difference. I'll be keeping my speed down from now on...






... on the driveway.

Are personalised plates for bikes smaller than for cars?

At what point in the process do you get to ask for the plate to be made for a bike?

They have the size on website,i.e also the euro style for mercs,bmws etc.

There is part where it asks for type of vehicle IIRC.

Don't do it, makes finding you easier as personalised plates are easy to remember at a glance. People who may want to remember it, thieves, people you may piss off by being on a bike whilst they are in a car, police (heaven forbid) and finally guys who want to abuse you for being a homo poser with a personlised plate... Invest that money in trackdays (I need to do that) and or some flashy gear. All the best

Simple... registered to a PO Box, house is like Fort Knox, I make no enemies of the police, especially being an ex cop, and I don't care what people say. If people want to call others homo's, then that their personal problem.

I'd like a plate that makes the bike a little more personal for me, not anyone else. The hard bit is picking what plate! And yes I intend to make a few track days (see you there??)
