    Does GORUP actually mean anything?

    You could read it as GO RUP I guess and put it on a two stroke scooter that goes rup-rup-rup...
    Or you could take the 2 as a Z and read it GOZ UP and put it on something that is about to catch fire or explode like a BMW maybe . Or you could read it as GO 2 UP which is how I read it as a general encouragement to use your motorcycle as a happy conveyancing device for yourself and your significant other .

    Wow - I should probably put the price higher .

    GROUP? - then it would need to probably be on a Harley .

    Or maybe GRO UP? That would mean it would be on a Busa as a subtle message to GN250's and their riders .

    Yeah my Mrs would probably be one of them... but some people are into this sort of thing. When I first bought the bike (with the plate already on it) I had a couple of people ask about buying the plate funnily enough. They must have gone to Ausy or something

    So, it was on a bike you bought? That means you can try and sell it for stupid money?

    What a rought!

    You mean a rort?
    rort
    rɔːt/
    noun informal
    1.
    AUSTRALIAN/NZ
    a fraudulent or dishonest act or practice.
    "a tax rort"
    2.
    AUSTRALIAN
    a wild party.

    No... it's not a rort in either sense - its selling something for what the market thinks its worth - I took into account the plate when I bought the bike as having possible value for later sale
