I can't take this sort of bloody revenue raising photography!!!
BS to the friggin max !!!
Years ago when we used to ride in a group near every where we went , we would duct tape our plates and make runs across town ...50 - 60 klm's of fun and games
Some of the chit we had taken on those cams was pretty out there !!!! LOLOL
Needless to say what we did back then most of the time was quite above the law ... but it did keep us amused ...lol

Ok, sorry been off air for a couple of days. In a former life I ran a 24 hour servo. Malcolm used to do the graveyard shift, and owned one of those very nasty little Honda City Turbos. He used to get sprung very often in the early morning on his way home from work by a speed camera on a long uphill haul out of Dunedin that is still in the 50Km limit. So he came up with this amazing invention. A long pole, with a spray can of clear laquer at the top, bit of a kinda hinge mechanisim and a piece of string to make the can spray. Cruise up Caversham Valley Road in the early morning, stop,walk up to the speed camera and spray a goodly dose of laquer over the wee window that the lens looks out of. Impossible to see as you drive past but totally ****s the focus on the camera lens.
Repeat at weekly intervals; when they go and retrieve the film from that camera but can't issue any tickets because they're all too fuzzy to read the rego numbers on. It's now more than 10 years later but I still notice when I'm in Dunedin that that camera has been decommisioned. Score.

Double Post Risk
So I've been kinda thinking about remounting my rear number plate with a brass piano hinge at the top and nothing at the bottom. Looks all good and kosher at rest (and at W.O.F. time) but once you get up to open road speed the airflow should bring the plate up to horizontal, making it a little bit difficult for speed camera's to get a fix on you. Your thoughts please gentlemen?

TK. I've thought about this too in my murky past. You would have to experiment with drilling a few different sized holes in the plastic behind the plate to vary the airflow and have the plate lift at the required speed. without the holes I think the turbulence would cause the plate to flap up and down.
In the old country I was toying with the idea of a spring loaded plate with an extra lever on the bars to trip the catch. It'd just look like a choke lever.
Of course, I wouldn't condone....blah....blah...blah because I'm a friken
