Well shorten the area up with more brackets in several areas.... my bike has the plate in the DOT approved area, and also has a braket for the inspection placed where the passenger rests should be..... now you probably have more registration-taggs than I do, but just make some more brackets to lighten up the bulky look.... also removing the passenger pegs really cleans up the look of the bike











yea, my bike is drenched with oil on the left side and is a broken baby.... so just dont look at the mess....

he's got it the wrong way around, the country is slovenia, formerly part of yugoslavia i believe... if you know where that area is.

the poms and many other euro countries get stuck with big plates like that, it would suck.

the position you have in the first photo is about all you can do with that i reckon, at least its standard and everyone else's bike look like that.

whats the bike scene like in slovenia?

We are small but it's quite nice here. Even the Queen Elizabeth from UK which was here last weekend said that it's nice here : )
The country is quite green with some nice roads to drive (To the mountains or to the sea side). We even have our own sea : ) Not much but it is our. But unfortunately we don't have any tracks to race, so we race illegal way

I'd be careful in the normal position (your first photo)unless you tilt it back. My plate is shorter than yours and it got slightly munched by the rear wheel on a large bump on the freeway. Normally is was OK but I'd guess your plate will hit with about 1" less travel.
