Hi all,
I like vanity plates on my bikes.
On my 1991 GS500E, my plate says CAB 27.
That's because a similar TAXI plate was previously on my last bike, a 1984 Yamaha RZ350 that I sold in 1993. I owned the RZ beginning in 1986, while I was still in college and working my way through school in Madison, Wisc., by driving a taxicab. It was Cab 27. My RZ was the Kenny Roberts yellow and black edition, and it looked great next to my real taxi, as you can see.
When I moved to PA after school, I had to swap my registration to PA and the TAXI plate was not available. So I received the CAB27 plate instead, which I use now. Here are some photos of my former RZ and my former taxi. OK, I was a little overboard, but I had fun. :)
Yours,
Todd

My old '82 Yamaha Vision had a model designation of XZ550, and for some reason I always think of a way to remember model designations, so I thought of it as seXZy550. Anyway, if you wanted to use those letters in your plate...

XZA55 or XZ500
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

By the way...I have a passion in 'naming things', I'm really sad because here in Italy vanity plates are not legal. (ahem....basically NOTHING is legal in this country...)
But if I could have a vanity plate I would definitely do my best... 8)
I have a passion for words, phrases (I have two lettering tattoos); lately I've been busy founding a name for my GS: I couldn't decide, then I bought the new jacket for the bike and it has "diamond lady" written on the back...so I found the name!  :mrgreen:

Yeah...but I thought people just ignored that and did what they wanted to anyway.  :lol:

Needs a meter and an "off duty" light. ;)

Damn, I'm always a big fan of Yamaha's classic yellow and black design. That's a fine lookin' bike.

Resurrecting this to see if anyone has any other interesting vanity plate stories...I'm about to register my bike in PA and I've got a few ideas of my own though they're mostly just shortened indie band names.

Also, anyone have any tips for finding if a tag's been taken or not?  Or choosing an unlikely tag?  I was already thinking about possibly writing the letters in reverse.
