Guess I'm going to find out what Mr PoPo says about the vertical license plate at some point 
These Are BC rear lights - with Amber bulb - the stock clear bulb did not want to work - too much resistance.
BC license plate holder
The space between the turn lamps is waiting on a brain storm to clean it up, maybe fit a small LED in the hole or cover up the space completely with some 'stylish' plastic or rubber, or fabricate a license plate holder in case the old bill don't like my design

Don't think Mr PoPo is going to like it. Easy enough to look up before spending time and money: Link
"RCW 46.16A.200
License plates.
(5)(a) Display. License plates must be:
(i) Attached conspicuously at the front and rear of each vehicle if two license plates have been issued;
(ii) Attached to the rear of the vehicle if one license plate has been issued;
(iii) Kept clean and be able to be plainly seen and read at all times; and
(iv) Attached in a horizontal position at a distance of not more than four feet from the ground.
(b) The Washington state patrol may grant exceptions to this subsection if the body construction of the vehicle makes compliance with this section impossible."

Papa - yes I did, also saw the rules on speed limits, loud pipes and bike modifications, flying flags, having certain dogs, taxes, guns, diversity, drinking - way too many rules for me.
Defiance - just a little ?
Tal - hope my rear end ends up looking that good

On the lighter side, I have a friend who recently purchased on of these miracle front wheel bike stand/locks,[similar to the one shown,but not the same one] who was braggin about how good it worked to hold up his 2001,and in perfect condition,Nomad.So I went over his house to view this wonder tool,which he had his bike locked into.After viewing it,we turned and started walking away,when we "SUDDENLY" heard this loud "CRASH" behind us. It really wasn't funny,but it WAS!! So the moral of the story is,make sure which ever wheel vice/lock you buy,is designed to support the MC in question and or the MC in question has the front wheel SECURELY locked into it. OR ELSE!! His wasn't!!

Jeez, you guys are easily distracted; you need to get out more. Back to the topic.
Easy and satisfying enough to break the rules without advertising the fact in plain sight. That license plate, excellent looking though it is, is just a pull-me-over sign to a bored cop.
I have to admit I didn't know there are rules about having certain dogs.  Like TRex/dog hybrids? Cloned killer mutant zombie dogs? There should definitely be rules about those.
