Hi all

Just a quick qustion were are you all fitting your tax disks as have had mine on the light cowl both sides and still its getting wet

1. Can you still keep it in your pocket and show it when asked by plod

2. Or is there some were on the bike that will keep the bugger dry

Yes I use the bike every day for work rain or shine also one ride out a week rain or shine.

Any Ideas welcome as you cant read the bugger now anyway

Many thanks kevin

hiya kev
you need to have your tax disc on dislay m8 mine sits on the headlight cowl in a plastic clip together thing and that seems to seal fine there only a couple off £ to buy try ebay or somewere like that
mick
or you could always tatoo it on your hand and not wear a glove!

Hi have you got your bike up and running

Sounds as if you have the same type as me .
Do you have yours on the left side

Good idea But I think a bit cold for not wearing gloves at moment

Gess thats really only safe place to fit it.

Many Thanks kevin

Kev,
i got one of those aluminium ones with a load of small allen bolts that hold the cover on.(for road bikes mainly). but the clever bit is, you wrap the tax disc in cling film, and seal the mating surfaces with clear silicone. I've bolted mine where the helmet lock and tool box used to be.

Why should you care if it gets wet or ruined , The new tax disk is registerd with the dvla / coppers/wardens computers , If any authority needed to know if your bike was taxed they would simply have to input your reg into there pc..Numberplate recognition doesnt even need a copper behind the camera , Just keep the reciept as proof of purchase.
