Highly Illegal and obvious to spot.
Got done twice on my old GSXR at £30 a pop. I think the fine is a lot more now.
Because wilts is a low crime area you're more likely to get pulled for something as innoxious as an under sized plate.
It's not so much the plate but the fact that they will then start snooping around the bike.
'Tyres look a little worn, is that exhaust legal, is this insured and MOT'd'
Not worth it in my eyes.
I have a slightly smaller, square plate. Looks ok and doesn't draw attention.
9x3 would be considered taking the p*ss and they might take exception. Also its a bit 90's.
