Hello Citizens,
I wanted to know everyone's take on personalised plates.
They can be bad because they are memorable.
They can be good because they add character.
There are many other reasons but I wanted to get and idea of what people thought and why?

Its a matter of personal preference but in the past I have had the plates reflect something about the bike so it can be sold with the bike if need be.

Hmmm - mostly they seem to be another way of spelling 'wanker' on the back of a Nissan 200SX or Subaru WRX. Dangerous waters!

Voting needs a third choice for the fence sitters....... me.........
I don't mind them, if like Rob said, they something about the bike......
No way would I pay a large annual fee for them and there is no way I would pay for, or display those wanky ones.... ISXY4U... UNVME .... etc

I have one on my car but it's a ridiculus price for the bike in the ACT so not interested in paying $2000 for a "unique" plate as they call them, but my car is still registered in WA and that one only cost me $250 I think

i have personal plate, my initials and birth year, my 18th bday present. they match my old mans (sort of) anyways, i also have personal plates on my car. they sort of say wattie. WAT-71E, i wouldnt pay for a plate that suited a bike or car, coz you cant keep it when you upgrade.
also, the yearly fee it a bit sucky. lucky i got mine before they started the yearly fee.

Had them on my old bike, thought better of it on my current one - the less memorable the better. Especially with a loud exhaust and the EPA report a vehicle BS.
