I know of people who make plates for people who want to ride without paying yearly road taxes or endorsments. If they want to go for a blast on the bike and know there are speed cameras etc around.

So these guys get the plate numbers from the net for the same model bikes.

And let's not forget who makes the majority of these license plates.....

Yeah, they're behind bars.

Just the plate in a parking lot doesn't tell you how many bikes are in the garage, or what kind of tools are there. A lot of posters here have pictures of those, too, a lot more information for someone looking for it. Has that information ever been used for theft? I don't know, haven't heard of it used that way. Might be a way for scammers to use that kind of info. Fraud is the biggest industry in the country; some folks may think, why make it easy for them?
cant believe it took 4 pages.

Close, but no cigar.

That info didn't come from DMV....

I was just messing, your photo is linked to your photo bucket and your photo bucket full of pictures of your house. Your house pictures have the address on a board attached to your junction box out side. Beautiful house by the way, I love the style of houses in the San Antonio area. We spend every couple of Christmas's in New Braunfels with the in laws and I visit military buddies homes in the area.

Photobucket stripped the exif info from your photo.

I think the forum does the same. I checked a couple of my pics that I know I didn't strip, but the exif was missing. Probably a privacy thing.
