xx54 xxx, will be putting that plate on any stolen Comet 125's I sell from now on. Thanks for bring that to our attention as otherwise I might not have seen it and you've just made shifting stolen bikes lots easier for me.

[malb]

Well anyone planning on stealing it has this forewarning. I collect Samurai Swords and I know how to use them.

Why would I want to steal your bike when I've got lots like it which I've nicked already and all I needed to be able to shift them was a different number plate of a Comet 125.

[malb]

I'll remove the picture if it makes you happy then ste. But its pointless unless you edit your post!

cheers

To be fair ste, you could go to a show room and do the same thing .

Best practice, but not exactly a major issue. Now, if he was pissing on a picture of the queen while riding the bike without a helmet and then signed the photo there might be cause for him to blur up the numberplate .


/me quitely resists mention the expensive new 125 so as not to cause offense

[Scooby]

I dunno why people make such a big thing of covering up plates in pictures. Fair enough, I've covered mine up in the past, but thinking about it, whats the point. You ride it everyday and show the plate to thousands of people, yet you're scared to show it to a few hundred who look at the forum. Overrated in my opinion.

I refuse to say you have a nice bike due to it being cleaner than mine.

Well it is only 2 days old, and for some reason it looks cleaner in the pictures than it actually is.

Ok Tin I see your point. It's basically a case of you've nothing to lose by hiding it, but there's a slim chance something could happen if you don't?!. Anyways, I'm pissed so I am gonna go to bed and see what sort of crap I have been posting when I get home from work tomorrow

People go from one extreme to the other https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=31903

If a bike theif is after a specific bike, he can brosw this forum and bike picture websites until he finds one that matches his order. Take the number plate details and get the address from the DVLA, browse a few posts for any details on the security, where the bike is locked up - or if they are posting about going on holiday etc..

Couple of seconds to blank off the plate, well worth it if you asked me for my opinion.

Nice bike btw and sorry for high jacking your thread malb

Exactly Hustler, you don't even need special Photograph editors like Photoshop a simple spray over in Paint can do the job, just as good.

Just remember that once you have altered a picture, change the filename. If you do not, then the thumbnail will always show the undoctored picture. This is definitely true in photoshop.

[JodieWodie]

Ahh...a good ol' Comet.
It's ok. Prefer the CG

I too am loving the moccassin effect with your feet there
