Default License plate - Customized
I did this a while ago...moving the plate up into the fender and then using the run/stop/turn module.

Today, I cut the license plate bracket off to expose the rear tire more. I kind of like it for now. Would be cool if I was runnin the SE180.

Ever consider a side mount plate bracket? I'm looking for one but so far I haven't found one without lights.

Not really, only because it wouldn't work when runnin saddlebags. I don't live close to anything so being able to carry necessities when riding is priority.

Makes sense. If I were to keep saddle bags on by bike I'd have someone sew a leather pouch of some sort onto the back of one of the bags so I could slide my plate in it. I'd use the back of the bag as a plate holder.

That's not a bad idea at all.

That's something I thought about a few days ago when I was trying to figure out what to do with mine. I looked online and didn't see anything like that. I thought for sure someone would have come up with something like that. Maybe it's just not that great of an idea. Or perhaps it's so genius no one thought of it yet. LOL

LOL I'd stick with "it's so genius...". Makes the story that much more interesting.
