Im looking to put one of these reg's on my zxr400.
I know a lot of people have differing opinions on these, such as being pulled over by the police etc, But atm i have a really bulky square one and I really think it ruins the look of my bike.

Any help would be great.

Cheers
Rhys

You'll need to save up a fair bit of money. They cost £60 on the spot every time you get pulled by plod, plus the wasted time and hassle. Once your local plod get used to you they'll pull you on a weekly basis to keep a steady stream of income coming in until you get the message and change it. If you continually fail to get the hint DVLA will withdraw your registration number and you'll have to re-register the bike on a Q plate, making it worth diddly squat when you try to sell it.

As you have drawn attention to yourself with the plate and made them stop you they'll also have a good root round to check that the exhaust, tires etc are also legal and if they're not they'll stick a few bob on for those and a few points too. That will bung up your insurance nicely.

I love people with small plates and race exhausts. Whilst plod is tied up at the side of the road dealing with the easy pickings I can get by unmolested and carry on hooning about :smt001
