I’m fitting a Tec tail tidy to my Speed Twin and was wondering about a smaller number plate, 8x6 Can I get the numbers and letters to fit if they are the correct size? Hope this isn’t to controversial
Yes you can, although The plate is a non legal size the letters can be a legal size but the spacing won’t be quite legal either,
If you get one made be sure to add the numbers shown on the bottom of your legal plate. Allegedly some bored coppers (mainly in Wales) use the missing BS numbers to justify fines I think it's BS145d and the postcode of the plate maker
Ok, thanks guys, now to find someone to to do it. I’ve had one made from a company on the web but the lettering is to small
Bought a rear plate from this firm https://www.jdmplates.co.uk Got the web page from a thread on the forum. Comes with a card with a declaration of conformity. Looks good on the back of my Street Twin. Alfie
Looks great that Stramasher, I’ve discided to go for a legal plate from JDM plates .the last time I fitted a small plate to a bike I got done within weeks.
Completely understand! My bike does not get used everyday plus hardly see any cops here and even rarer on the type of roads I go for a boogie on. I'm obviously a vain bassa too.
Looks like your in Scotland you lucky man, I try to get up there on the bike a few times every year,love the place. The Macdonald Arms hotel Kinlochleven is a favourite.
