Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Talking about licence plate: yes

But well, even these "new" ones are larger than the North American plate, so they still look ugly; but it is a small improvement.

Olaf, Mike, Peter, Uwe, Georg, Ralf, Ulli, Rheingauer, Frankie and all other friends from Germany! Is it true? Kleiner ist besser?

Perfect size , for a mud flap .

It’s better for the Germans “smaller from what they have now” but here in Belgium we also get the new European plates this year and it is ugly compared to the ones we have now.

Admin, could you tell me how to post a picture here?

Erik their is also an alternative way to post pictures on the site using the "upload attachment" method. To use upload attachment method type your message and where you want your picture to appear scroll down to the bottom of the message box and

1. click on browse
2. locate your picture on your computer. It is easier for some to have the picture on the desktop.
3. click on add the file and you will see it upload
4. after uploading click on "place inline" where you want the picture to appear in the message
5. click on submit





Click "submit" to post your message with picture. You will get the best result again if you previously resize your picture to a maximum of 800 pixels wide.

The picture using this method will appear as below.

if you have a friendly, understanding guy working at the licence plate bureau you can get a small one, but this is very rare. Look at my bike (second from left) and Wolfgangs (last on right).

The plate on my bike is only allowed for bikes up to 80cc, but this guy said to me: "if anyone wants a plate like this, send him to me, and I tell him to buy a bike like you have"

Wolfgang tried this in his township and never got one. Drives him nuts

Isn't there a country that requires or did require a license plate on top of the front fender ??

Hahha Peter! Maybe it has something to do with the size in this case as well! You are MUCH bigger than Wolfgang ! So kleiner is not allways besser!

Thanks W1ldman and 502wingman, tried both your methods and it worked

Jack,
not that I know. In Germany it is not allowed, because a large plate sticking up in the air may become a razorblade in case of an accident.
Still a lot of choppers here ride with the plate up.

Having the plate on the side, is tolerated in some townships here, and forbidden in Austria. But police wont stop you for that. It only may come back insurance wise in case of a problem......
