Went to ride the Storm into work this morning....did my usual checks, tyre pressues etc and found that some scum bag had robbed my tax disk off the bike. Not sure what they used to removed it but they made a complete mess of my double bubble screen! Not a happy bunny.
The last time I left my bike in public was 2 nights ago in Cheltenhams inner promenade.

Anyone got any ideas of other styles of holders that are a bit more tamper proof? And also location wise? Because I know it has to be visible on the front end of the bike.

i dont wear one on the bike now for that reason m8, plus ive ruined a few with the jetwasher.
i just keep it in my wallet all the time.
never been moaned at for not displaying a tax disc, probably cos when im out i rarely leave the bike & when i do it's not left where traffic nazis can earn money off me.

Ahh thats fair enough. I think I'll start using your method. Either that or I'll hook the next holder to the battery and the feckers will get a belt if they touch it

Some people take a colour copy of theirs and write on it somewhere "original with rider."

Round here I'm lucky enough. They dont seem to be intelligent enough to steal tax discs. They just push the bike over instead.

I think I'm right in saying that the tax disc has to be visable from the kerb side of the bike only. You might see them anywhere from the front mud guard to the back of the chain guard. A good place to mount is on the fairing mount above the n/s radiator.

I never put mine on my bikes as ive had on nicked before
I leave mine at home with the rest of the docs . Never had a prob with the cops when I've been stopped
Traffic wardens can suck my co.k as it's always parked on a drive and if it ain't they just walk by to the next car
Parked wrong lol
I did ask a copper once and he said it's fine as long as it was taxed )

- Can't ride but it don't stop me trying

Some people fit it under the seat so its always with the bike

I think I will go with the fitting under the seat option

in the wallet is best.........imho

Thats the problem nowadays- scum thievin everything even when it is tied down, and the coppers dont give a toss about the theft, cause its easier to hand out a "failure to display" ticket to the law abiding..
