As a little sideline, i used to make numberplates. Legal or show plates. Then i had a child and found i didnt have as much time to do it, so i let it slip.
But i still have all the equipment and the blank plates, and a little more time on my hands (not much), so i'm considering starting it up again.
I just need to guauge the level of interest, as i would need to lay down a reasonable amount of ££'s for software licensing. Fortunately i dont need to pay out on blanks as i have a box ready.
So, would anyone be interested in a lovely shiny plate? lets say around a tenner for a motorcycle plate as a ball park figure. Maybe I could do a 'FOC-U plate' with FOC-U.co.uk in the tag line and the yamaha logo ghosted in the background if thats what people want?

Me too please.

This is good feedback, I would need 15 to break even on software cost. I can do them without the plate software, but the right software literally saves hours! I'd also include the plastic nuts/bolts.

My 7x5 that I knocked up... Bit dirty from commuting.

Depending on cost, I could be interested in 3 different plates!!

I'll have one. As a point of interest can you do them with national flags, say Flag of St George with England underneath?

I'd have 2 fella - assuming you could also do one with a Triumph logo ghosted.

thunderpantz · « **Reply #12 on:** 16 January 2014, 09:09:52 am »

I'd take one

The penalty for supplying non-standard plates looks quite harsh.

dcurzon · « **Reply #14 on:** 16 January 2014, 10:34:12 am »

They are! I'm a registered number plate supplier, so can do legal plates. Anything other than legal are for show purposes only - concourse, shop window, and most definitely NOT for the road

I'd be interested

I'd probably the the GB sticker on the side for European jaunts?

sadlonelygit · « **Reply #16 on:** 16 January 2014, 03:05:02 pm »

Count me in for 8x6 yamaha ghost

Cheers

Sounds like it will be worth me putting down the dollar then... I'll wait until payday as i'm skint right now lol!

Yes please

Is England not legal???

dcurzon · « **Reply #22 on:** 17 January 2014, 08:36:38 pm »

Fizzy - simply not do-able. Maybe you could fashion some dzus fasteners for quick number plate swaps?

GB is legal (assuming its on a legal plate of course), don't think it is but I'd have to check if England would be legal as an alternative.

what sort of money are you looking at?

dcurzon · « **Reply #24 on:** 19 January 2014, 01:27:09 pm »

Probably a tenner. If anyone want a normal plain legal plate, I can do them now.
