I might get a secondhand mudguard so I can keep the black plate and reflector on it for a change every now and then  |

Bodie Found nearest match to the Tommy Leonard Font, not perfect but could be with some research  Which would look like this on the bike  |

HiPete that looks great my mate Paul is on the case with Tommy Leonard's son with regards to the official number plate the shop has been closed for a while now but he got his new Fireblade from there in 97 and got a personal number plate and lost his original Honda one so he would like to have a plate made for his blade as well but if no joy what you have pictured there is good enough for me ,did you get your plate sorted?  |

Once I have the registration number back from DVLA probably will opt for this  My mate who is an ex-printer will do the final copy which will make sure the images are sharp Given up the pressed plate option as want to keep within the law |

I like Pete's mock up too & would like to replace all my SD plates with those. Where could we get some done?

I have a feeling that original plate is quite boring like this I think!  |

Good news on the number plate front found a genuine Honda dealer plate on my mates vt250 1983 he is stripping and it should be aluminum with stick on letters and a sticker on the bottom  |

Hi Pete yes it is good number man ones were a few years in the early 80's then they did it with the number first I am trying to get an unpressed plate from chestnut plates and get numbers and sticker made and stick them on myself as in the period  The street name should read fort street that was his old shop that had a bad fire in the 80's and he moved to new shop in castle Mona ave of Douglas prom where mine and Pauls Blades came from free photo uploading websites |

The fonts are different from the business card Quick Mockup, the spacing etc looks lop sided on the original so tried to reflect it  image hosting gif |
