Breakout license plate
Hi
No doubt that the stock breakout license plate is very ugly. I am actively looking for different way to change it. I cannot use the side license plate due to legal reason in Canada. The license has to be in the back of the fender.
I will list all the vendors I founded.
This is my first option, expensive though 997 plus shipping and accessories.

The second option, almost same as the first option 575

The third option , which I really don't like but it's better than the stock , needs some modification 83

any suggestions or other option
Thanks

I live just a bit north of you and have never had an issue with my side mounted plate as far as the police are concerned. I got pulled over this summer for speeding just outside of Banff. The officer let me off with just a warning about the speed. I asked him about my plate which is mounted on the left hand side of the rear swing arm, turned sideways 90 deg., and curved to match the curve in the mount. The officer said that most likely the police wouldn't pull me over for just the plate mounting, but could add it to other tickets if they REALLY wanted to make a point. Otherwise he said don't worry about it. And over the rest of the summer in both Alberta and BC, I was passed numerous times by the cops who must have seen the mount and I also gently passed a couple of cops and never once did they pull me over. Seriously, if you like a side mount plate, get it. Highly unlikely that you'll be bothered by the police because of it. I picked mine up from Ebay by a guy in the US for about $75 CAD.

Here's the one I use on my '16 BO that I bought from Ebay: Harley Curved Rocker Breakout License Plate side mount Bracket Black. Built by accufast2d. Fit like a glove, super easy install.

In my state on cars and trucks you also need to have a front plate. On some of my vehicles over the years I did not run one up front, cause it was ugly. Admit I never got a ticket for driving without it. Only ticket for that was when I was parked at the airport run by the city. I should have known better, $75 down the drain. Now I just run the front plate all the time.
