So far i have put in 2 sets of rears and one front and they both need replacing soonish. They are Vesrah pads . Had the bike for 18000kms. is this excessive or do others go through them too.

I'm thinking he's seen my number plate mounted directly to the rear guard...

So when did that become illegal? I've got the plate mounted on the rear guard, a white led strip mounted untder the rack illuminates the plate, the standard stop/tail light is in the orginal position and the reflector is below the plate. Plate is perfectly visible from the rear night and day.

all my dual sport bikes have had the plates direct mounted to the plastics

Meant to be as close to vertical as possible and white light illuminated.

Mine is visible from the rear day and night as long as they don't turn their lights off.

how you get around not having the white light for wofs

Nah i go through them at about the same rate, not quite as tough on the rears though
