hmm thats a good one, dont think I can have a new style plate though, as its a Y reg
y plate is march- august 2001 so MY 01 FZS. its the new style and incorporates the yr ur bike was first registered. it will be allowed.try typin it into the licence plate website and it prob cost u 6-800 quid.
[/quote]The DVLA site goes from 51. Are you sure about this?

I was just about to mention this! 51 (sept 2001) was when new plates came in
I remember when i had just bought my F650 and my bro had new car with a "personalised" plate P444PKR and was bragging bout it. I pointed out my reg N608ARB was a personalised , he said whats different bout that.... I just said well my bike only vehicle with that number on it!!! lol
:rollin :rollin

My FireBlade had a postbox style number plate and i was always getting pulled. One copper followed me for 4 miles with his Blues and Two's on before i stopped, i couldn't believe it.
In the end i put the original on, £150 in fines from 3 pulls.I only fit standard plates now?

It would still be a standard size, just inventive spacing

As I recall ... It's another £80.00 to pay to the DVLA every time you change your bike
£80 worth of pop would fill the average tank .. well almost :lol
I have had a couple of bikes that lots of people want to photograph .. including Spanish & French Police .. a Special BMW R1200 c Montauk. Mark Grinnall Trike and now my 2008 Honda CB1300s HP EZS Sports Sidecar outfit .. The Spanish Dancer.
If ever the camera man is talking serious .. or the bike is in a show (I've won a couple of Best Bike awards
I carry (in the boot) a laminated card plate ABC 123 that sticks onto the real plate .. looks cool, gives nothing away and people seem to really like it :b End of shift .. it's all Bull Stuff Boys and Toys :rolleyes
Stay Safe Y'all . Trev The Polar Bear (By the way .. ABC 123 = A Bike Conversion with 1. 2. 3 Wheels :\ )

Re: Thinking of one of these - alexanderfitu - 01-02-13
Just the spacing. No buggering about with screw caps or stupid fonts they annoy me too !
Re: Thinking of one of these - Lawrence - 01-02-13
Spacing is still an issue. Mate of mine (well, his mrs) got pulled for it a while back so he went back to standard plates.
Re: Thinking of one of these - alexanderfitu - 01-02-13
True, only going by my experience on the car.
Meh Ill probably just put the money into a recon hud live
Re: Thinking of one of these - fireblake - 01-02-13
I saw a bike with the plate of A1 6UNT, the six was opened slightly, even a bike cop laughed at it. I never saw if a fine was given though?

I must be a bit thick, but what you trying to say? when I got my bike got a list to pick from so got 6 FZ as part of the reg as **06 F*Z

It's meant to say Alex mf

If you like it - do it! We've got a couple in the family.
Although as Bob pointed out it's totally wrong format for a square plate so will probably attract old bills attention.

Save your money + other expenses. Put it towards a newer bike/gear/anything but a plate. Waste of money. (IMO)
Something tangable, fondle etc.
Re: Thinking of one of these - alexanderfitu - 02-02-13
lol @ the fondle, I have come to that conculsion as well
Re: Thinking of one of these - dazedandconfused - 03-02-13
You can't make your bike look newer than it is with a private plate so anything Y or before is ok, anything after is a no go.
