Black / Silver Plates

[WR6133]

On a side note the last MOT tester said it’s not a fail to have a mini plate fitted as long as it’s easily readable but it is illegal to ride it on the road so you could literally ride out of the garage after it passing and get a ticket for an illegal plate

He best hope he doesn't pass a DVSA bait one, while they don't have to "measure" they are expected to reject anything obviously incorrect https://www.gov.uk/guidance/mot-insp...of-the-vehicle

However your cruiser if the plate mount looks to be made in such a way only a tiny one fits maybe legally ok for MOT due to this line, for the sake of 2 bolts probably not worth arguing with the tester though.

Imported motorcycles that do not have the space for a standard sized registration plate can have a smaller registration plate.

Yup, a small plate is a fail if the MOT tester is doing their job correctly, for sure some turn a blind eye but most won't
