Have full info and more pics on my website : www.r6-yzf.co.uk Although you might have to force a refresh if you've been there before. Control + F5 to do that.

What do you think? Looks much better I think.

Just waiting on my carbon micron can, carbon tax disc holder (oh need to tax it too Rolling Eyes ) and screen etc. Even bought some blue valve caps Laughing Laughing

Laughing @ Stu.

398cc : nah mate I stick to legal size, reason for that is my cop theory that your at least 50% more likely to get pulled with a smaller number plate. (going by what I've seen at bike meets)

The way I see it, is cops can instantly see if your number plate is too small, no questions asked, so that's an excuse to pull you and check out your exhaust/visor etc.

Whereas with standard plate, your less likely to get pulled.

That's my theory anyway. It's not like you can see the plate whilst riding so who cares Laughing

I want to splash out on the carbon bits I want, but really need to save some cash for a trail bike/commuter Confused

Suppose, but mine is half size of a legal one and i've only been porked twice, and they just say, get it changed sharpish. but no details or anything are taken, so i kept it on Neutral .

Just thought you might because it looks like a legal one is gonna be pretty close to the wheel.

Nice.

Although your bracket and/or plate aren't on straight. You can see it in the first photo in the thread, as the LHS looks lower than the RHS. Same again in the photo with the number plate on it, but easier to see. Just twist the bracket round a bit. Very Happy Thumbs Up

Oh yeah, TART!!!. Laughing

lol ste, yep it's not straight is it Laughing

I can't remember if I took the pics before or after I attempted to straighten it, I presume after cos I have the seat cowl on in the pics.

Will check that out tomorrow I think.

Cheers for pointing it out thought mate as I wasn't sure Laughing

Much like you can't see blue valve caps, a fancy plate bracket, a solo seat cowl, a carbon tax disc holder, a...... Laughing

Shut it Middle Finger Razz Middle Finger

Ok you have a point, but blue valve caps, seat cowl etc etc won't get you pulled by the police Wink

And you just know you loved my new tax disc holder don't you! Mr. Green Wink
