    ...and you meant "...that's just..." ( :-) )

    My Aussie mate with a GN got a $?00 ticket for not displaying his WOF. ...but he had thrown it away when he got his license, on the (fairly reasonable) basis that since he had to have the WOF to get the license, having the license meant he must have had a WOF.

    (He had the license folded in half, and stuffed into the plastic WOF holder thing (that I don't want to use)).

    As long as you ain't standing anywhere near my behind when you are being anal, that is fine by me.

    One thing when you make up that tail tidy, ensure you allow for a rearward facing mounting point for your or a red reflector (factory ones are usually pretty small and tidy looking just in a crap position).

    Without a reflector you will not get a WOF period. The theory being that if your tail light goes out at night at least the reflector will show up in headlights.

    Yep - thanks for that. Easily forgotten detail.

    I'm hoping to find a way to bung it on the license plate light (so I'm looking for something to replace the stock one e.g. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=131687750 so I don't have to screw with the OEM one, or maybe a set of those little LED's that would mount under the tail).

    I'm going for:

    [Lic][reflector on plate light][WOF]
    [Registration plate]

    Nice 'n tidy.

    As I understand...the "charge" would be "failing to display a current WOF". As long as the parking twats can see the EXPIRY date, they will be happy. Plod KNOW all the details when they call in your rego no. Big brother knows all... little brothers know fuck all...

    stick it under, been pulled over 37 times on bike, never had a problem with mine having only one side visable.

    if they wanna know they just radio it in to confirm.

    either that or stick it to your bike screen.

    A good idea (if your gonna use the ally reg holder for yr warrant) is to get it laminated or glad wrap as was mentioned, or water will get in and you wont read it after a short time !
    My shit (reg and warrant) is up hidden above the back wheel, as its tailless now !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    The WOF sticker on mine is in a plastic holder stuck to the back of the numberplate. The peel off paper that reveals the sticky bit has been left on so the the label doesnt actually attach itself - thus, I dont have to buy a new holder every time I get a WOF. The details are visible if someone cares to look and its tucked away for aesthetics.
