I just got my replacement plate in the mail today for my shovelhead, the
current plate is 7 years old. The new plate has no raised numbers or letters.
That makes it look so cheap, fake even. When did they make that change and
what possible reason could there have been to justify it. I guess my twinkie
will get a new plate this year too. Some changes are not for the better.

I've seen some of the new car and truck plates. They look like cheap
novelties.

Same as Montana adn many other states. The Wifes tag read 1BLU09 then
again she did but the first blue 09' EX250 sold in Montana. Her only
modification was to have it broken in using the Motoman technique,
cost here a case of Moosedrool and a fresh batch of KimChee. 8^) I
work cheap for cute chicks.

Think I'll go vanity on the wing. Not sure what yet got some great
ideas though. But might go with "COBOL" those who know understand why
it's a good way to say "Not NICE".

I had a vanity plate on my '78 back in the late 70's or early 80's. It was
HD4HG or HG4HD I don't remember which. It was mounted on a Cobra license
plate mount alarm and after a very short time the HD license plate mount
broke while I was riding down 59 and it was lost forever. Man that sucked.

The cobra alarm added way to much weight to the stock license bracket so I
should have known better than to trust my pricey plate to it.

COBOL is a computer programming language I think. I have zero experience
with it. Closest I can come is back when I used to enter code from C-64
magazines and save it on tape to play rudimentary games like egg drop and
such.

I was just teasing you...

Be very glad...but that is just my opinion. It was worse than RPG-7 do
the same two in a class and it a sure bet that you could snap. I did,
I also crackled, popped and went SPLANG!
