I have been mulling over a variety of personalisation options. Number plates came into consideration. It's a bit naff but - hey who cares. We have the option for to personalise our plates with up to 5 number/letter combinations.

A search shows me the obvious are unavailable because others got in before me so I'm not the only idle daydreamer.

GONE are R90, R9T, NINET, BMW90,BMW9T, and permutations thereof ....

In frustration I have reserved BXR90 to acknowledge 90 years of boxer BMW's and include the model # R90. Any other bright ideas out there.

Remember combo letters and numbers = maximum 5

A hint - our motor registry can decline naughty words or suggestions.:eek

Here in blighty we have a one off fee for the plate purchase + fee to transfer onto the bike ,then the plate must only be used on a bike and can't be transferred onto a car

so it has to be a good choice

So as it's a special bike and a keeper I'm looking at a plate R90 NTE ,as a plate reading 9T is £90,000 over here and not much option of anything else ,I have found a R90WMB which is

Congratulations on the plate purchase! It's always a tough decision to choose the right one. I'll mull it over for a while I think.

So has anyone else personalised their 9T with a personal plate yet ?? What's your thinking of something non standard in your own country ??

you all clearly have too much money! personalised plates ARE naff petrichor and amount to little more than voluntary taxation!!

That's IYHO zippy correct ,it's a personal choice and looks very

IMHO
Its not all about being expensive ,it depends where you reside I suppose ,I'm pleased with my R9NTE and was dirt cheap and a one off payment nothing else to pay
