should I put my private plate on the bike?

Post by Hanuman »

for my 30th, from the wife, I got my first initial, followed by 30, then the rest of my initials.

it's now on retention.

should I put it on my bike? or is that naff...

I could put it on my pick up.

I reckon you have far too much money.

What happens when you turn 31, will you have to get another plate? :wink:

The only potential down side is that if you put a small plate on,
the plod can have dvla confiscate the number, you then revert back to the original number and you are at least £250 plus out of pocket + any fine for the illegal plate in the first place..

generally if plod stop you, it's a £30 fine and you're told to sort it, (happened to me with the car plate), though they can take it back off you via dvla

its more about being able to read it with the traffic camera vans, so stay away from fancy fonts and this should reduce the risk of being pulled
