L plate on upper front fork?

[Bambam3]

Got a rigid L plate and bracket, although the bracket won't fit/screw in on the lower part of the fork as it's too wide.

Would it be safe/ok to put it on the upper part of the fork, near the top as it'll go down with the forks as the suspension goes.

Would it hold?

Best to put it down the bottom. Just cable tie it with the 2 holes to the bottom part.

For the front of my bike I got some stick on L plates, 59p in Wilkinson and put it on the front mudguard thing. Saved me the hassle of fitting a rigid L plate on the front of me bike

Yeah, put it on the thicker part of the forks. Mine has a screw which you can't tighten all of the way but that doesn't matter. It's still on there tightly.

ms51ves3: why does it need 500 miles? Are you teaching it how to be a piston?

When I had L plates I cable tied my front one to the top of my clocks. Also see a lot of people taping them to the inside of the screens on their 125 sports bikes.

When i had L plates....
Rear one drilled and bolted to the rear plate (flexible)
Front one cut down and mounted on the front nosecone (sticky)

Yeah but my post wasnt aimed at owners of MotoGP 125's, it was at the sticking of L plates onto 125 'sport bikes'.

A CBR 125 I would definatley not class as a sports bike. Or a Yamaha R125, or a Hyosung GT125. An Aprilia 125...maybe...but still not.

A sports bike should do as the name suggests, be sporty. Not have a small single cylinder engine with tarty fairing.

If its a rigid one don't do it. I've got a nice big scratch on the top of my mudguard where the thing hit it under braking. I've changed it for a flexi one cable tied under the headlight. (YBR125).

the clamp on ones mount altogether too close to the disc for my liking.
