When I pick my bike up thursday it will be fitted with the most awful registration plate holder mankind has ever seen.
I'm not sure if this is a "service" provided here in sweden only, or if you've all suffered through the pain of seing such a beautyful bike equipped with such an ugly accessory.

Anyway. Where can I get myself a better looking holder?
Thanks a lot in advance

I think the plate holder is the same in all countries but these guys do one in the UK:

When you do your best, you can make it yourself, like me :wink:
And yes, I've never seen such an ugly one as the S3 05 plate holder, also in the Netherlands :evil:

Interesting.
Yeah the idea of making my own has crossed my mind but I'm such a lazy bastard
What have you done with your turn signals? (Or whatever they're called in english) Did you get new ones or just modified the existing ones?

These turn signals (I know what you mean, I'm also not enlish :wink: ) are other ones. I only had to make holes in the (alu) plate to put them through and they are fit with a nut around their housing.

Here is a picture, I bought white ones:

Shock racing makes some nice mini LED marker lights that might work well.
