I want to get the smallest number plate i possibly can on my 1999 bike. What size does this have to be and could i get a single line plate or does it have to be a double?

Despite what anyone says a single line plate is a big no no, you WILL get pulled and it will only be a matter of time. Single line plates tend to be taking the piss so much I think you'd have a hard job getting off it.

I have a 6x4 on my Gixxer which is about pushing the limit of what you can get away with. They should be 9x7 but a 7x5 is a safe bet.

rofl

You were lucky then Mick - I know several traffic cops and they say that the general feeling is that if they stop someone with a slightly smaller plate they usually judge the persons attitude on whether or not they will do them or just give them a talking to.

They also reckon that a one liner is just taking the piss so they dont even bother talking about it, just give them a fine and be done with it.

I dont reckon a one liner is worth the risk. You were obviously lucky........or too fookin fast! Wink
