I've been a lifelong hockey player and fan and I thought about 54FGTNG for my Spyder, but I thought everyone would think I was a fan of the band...

My vanity plate is a little more understated - you can't really figure it out but it means a lot to me. I got the same number that was on my Euro delivery German tourist plate.

I guess I'm stuck with my 991.1. Pretty happy about that, too!

I had a custom plate on my Honda RC51 v-twin sport bike...MYRC51. Then it got mangled when it somehow touched the rear tire during a track day and got pulled over the tire. Survived but very bent up. Months later I was hit by a car. Uninjured but the bike was totaled. No more vanity plates for me

I did keep the plate and have it up in the garage as a reminder of something. Not sure what. These days I prefer anonymous normal plates. No sense in calling more attention to my vehicles!
