Number Plate Bracket/Holder

Post by alexwitham »

My current number plate isn't road legal and will not pass another MOT. I have a legal number plate in the garage but I cannot get it to fit the NC as the reflector on my un-cut undertray is in the way. I have come to the conclusion that some kind of number plate holder/bracket is required.
I have seen these:

Does anybody have any other ideas?

Thank you.

Mine had a legal sized plate on it when I got it - the top edge of the plate was trimmed down and it fitted a treat.

You could in theory just take it off :grin:

Are these built into the UK spec undertray?

I had the same problem.

The undertray Steve sold me had an extra bracket on it (currently being powder coated), which raises the numberplate slightly and clears the indicator (well, rests on it a little).

I think the bracket's from a new ZX-6R, might have a spare one knocking about.
