Fitting front No Plate and what size?
The ferry is booked, TF is on for three days and my guest house has a sauna, however, Lots of people being asked for front plates at the barriers at
Nurburgring.
I have not rocked a front plate ever on the R1, however, how have you law abiding citizens fitted yours and what size did you go for.
Pics appreciated.
main concern is brackets as it is on an angle

Just get some double sided and stick it on before you go through the border control, take it off afterwards (you won't need it on the way
back).
Just make sure you have all the papers for the car and it'll be fine.
They stopped me and weren't going to let me through on my bike, because I had no lights on it - But I didn't actually know that I had to
take my doc's... (Idiot, I know!)

I've got a sticky on my nosecone. No problems so far but it doesn't mean they won't throw a wobbler. Don't forget your
flourescent jacket, emergency flares etc if travelling through France. Nice little earner if ever there was one
