Ive had two 3/4 plates now.
The first was a lot smaller than the newer '3/4' plate i ordered off fancyplates.com - but tbh the newer larger (but smaller) one looks better


It fills the recess perfectly

i always use the same argument well used too been a long time since i was pulled lol.
How come a bike doesn't need a front plate and a car does, a bike is a vehicle just like a car??? one rule for one etc etc......

All the police say is thats the law they never really have an answer and i get a telling off never been find YET lol

I bought some Standard Size plates and DIY Trimmed them

Maintains the Standard Font and Spacing Sizes that way, and never had any issues with or attention from the Fuzz.

You're better off with a normal sized plate if you either have a small one stuck in a stupid place or a second one in your windscreen, looks ridiculous.
