So yesterday I get back from riding around a little, was just going to check and see how my air filter was holding up, so took off my gas tank, pulled it and checked it. I just happened to look behind my bike and noticed it was open back there, and to my surprise my license plate wasn't there lol... The plastic bracket holding it on snapped in half, and I guess it was dangling on the one end, and just totally snapped off eventually.

Anyone else lose their plate before too? Man I was looking forward to riding this weekend, I guess this is God telling me to stop riding and get some maintenance done haha =[

 

ive had my FE pop out and hang by 2 screws.. ha

 

lol yeah, I had my undertail pop out from under my bike, until I secured my ballast better from hammering it down lol. Thank god for that keylock cable thing for holding it on lol.

 

you know what? i just had this happened to me about a week ago.... i did a long trip around hayden lake (about an hour) and then when i saw my friend, i pulled over and started to talk - well right when i was about to take off, he is like "oh yea, your plate is missing.." i thought he was joking but then when i got home it was gone.. i thought someone stole it, but after about 5 minutes i remember i used some stupid crap bolts to hold it on... oh well, need to register it anyways in Idaho - so worked out for the better.

 

Yeah I caught mine hanging by one screw. After that I took a ziptie from one of the holes to the helmet holder on my F3.

 

Yeah in NY supposedly I have to go to the cop station and get this form or a police report, and then fill out a lost or stolen plate form, and a registration form. =[!! lol oh well

 

Coincedently, I did. I was riding home from my local route when a red e46 M3 pulled up next to me yelling something I couldn't understand. Thinking he just wanted to race I ignored him until his girlfriend started yelling as well. They were saying "no plate, no plate!" I was confused at first but soon realised what they meant once I got home... it was gone, except some of it decide to hang around.

^^ not sure which code is used to post pictures but one of them should work.

 

Haha, yeah that's exactly what was left on mine! Upper left side was left, I just got back from the police station, and had them fill out the form I need to go to DMV to get a new one. Interesting day so far lol.

 

lol i lost my temp tag when i first got my bike. rode it around in the rain and it got wet and flew off. it's probably somewhere in the median of the highway.

 

Yeah, I came pretty close. I found it hanging by one screw.
