Been riding with a 7/8 and not been stopped yet . It's not the plates it's the size of the numbers and letters that have to be a certain size

i bought a 7/4 plate 2 weeks ago, i will be putting that on when the bikes ready.
The original plate was way too big, like a pizza box lol

I had a 6x4 inch plate, got pulled and bike was siezed.. I think police don't seem to care if you've got a full licence with modded plates... they seem to dislike us "L" plate users.. I was told the only plate I was legally allowed was the standard 9x7, he showd me a piece of paper n such with the size on it too, anything under 9x7 was classed as an illegal modification.

i dont think they have the right to siezed it they just tell u off and give u a fine or a puducer

Does sound a tad extreme for a plate

Just had my bike fail its MOT for the numberplate... apparently letters where too small. :( damn... that and the fork seals. :/

I've got a 7x5 on my bike, no issues yet have been pulled police told me to be careful said its borderline lol.

bkray · DTR Senior Member

yh, i think my one i had on there was a 7x5

they then made a new one up and put it on there, looks like a bloody billboard... >.>

after the re-test though ;) things will be different... :D

I got a 6x4 or 7x5 on mine is pretty small but the trick is of course when I got mine of a bloke from ebay I wanted the numbers and letters bigger, and of course for MOT's I just swap it over for my normal size one with the reflectors on it
