Default Pics of the relocated plate.

What do you guys think the yellow acts as an accent light for the undertail and swingarm. The plate looks crooked in the pic bc of the bend to avoid the swingarm but it isn't.

From what I could make of the photo, I would be surprised if you didn't get pulled over. It looks like you wouldn't be able to read the plate at all from that angle.

As far as the light, I have no idea if color lights would be legal or not. I think the yellow light would look hot with the blue and yellow RR. (I din't realize you had the blue and yellow until after I looked at your other photos)

Please post a better photo. Set the camera down on a box or tripod and use a self timer (if available) to get a better photo in low light. If you try to take a low-light photo with the flash off while holding the camera in your hand, the picture will always be blurred.

with that yellow light you're just bring more attention to it. Get a relocation kit or a swingarm mount. With the way you have it now you're better off not even running a plate.

Well since I rode all last summer with it like this and have yet to be pulled over for it... I guess where you guys ride just sucks or you are too slow to get away. I love the fact that I post a pic on here and all I do is get ripped for it. You know you could just say don't like it or that it's not a good idea. Either way I think it looks good, and I havent been pulled over for it, so I think I'll keep it.

Here, I will say it for you."Looks stupid."

I found another picture of your bike, but I could not see the plate at all on it.
Might wanna relocated it to the left or right tentical. Just so your safe from getting a ticket.

Nobody is trying to give you a hard time (except maybe cbr_racin123, but his post was funny). We are just sharing our experience and trying to save you from a ticket.

Personally, I think the yellow light would look cool, but you can't really tell from the photo. I guess you would have to see it to appreciate it. Anyway, this is your bike. Do what you like. But don't ask a question in this forum if you don't want to hear people's opinion. Personnally, that is what I like about this forum - they are honest in their opinions!
