Where on your bike did you put your base sticker to keep it from being a blinding eyesore on the windshield or front fork? thanks

Unfortunately, in San Diego they made us put them on the front fork. Then when I xfered up to Whidbey Island, they kept it there. I have seen them on the swing arm as well. Honestly on sport bikes there is no great place to put base stickersthey are an eyesore or they claim that they cannot see them right. I have seen people put on little sheets of hard plastic for the sticker then zip tie them to the forks. That's about all I can think of.

Most everyone around here (it's a Navy town) has them on the left front fork. Might not be pretty, but it's better than on the windscreen!!

you might wanna check before you do this,your post may not approve. we got a magnetic sheet and cut it to the size of the sticker, and just stick the sticker on the magnet. this way you can have it out if you are going on post and if your not then you will not see it. this way you dont get any adhesive on your baby.

i made a bracket for the stickers and mounted it to the front brake caliper, that way i can take it off anytime i want to and i don't have those gay ass stickers anywhere on the bike itself.

Do what me and my boys did.. Put it on a piece of swran wrap and that way you can put it on and take it off as you please and never mess up the sticker.. Then when your going through the gate.. Just slap it on and it doesn't matter if it's on the front of your windsheild.. I did my inspection sticker in my car the same way I hate the manditory sticker stuff..
