My TS185 And My R6

[PsuPepperoni]

Eleven years ago; fifteen-year-old me not happy about the mud depth

I've been through a few cars, but I still have the ol' Suzuki

And a month ago I finally got a real bike...

Very nice Psu! Love the old photos, have you done much off-road riding? Cool that you have that old beast still, if you have the space you should never sell it

How's the R6 treating you? Looks very nice in black. Why is your license plate angle like that? It doesn't look flush to the rest of the bike. I assume legal reasons, but I'm not sure having it that far back helps reading it. Especially in the evening. My mate has it like this, I think with the size of your license it would look pretty good. Or it is just me having a problem with that angle

It's to make the plate more difficult to read

You should see the lengths these hooligans here in the states go to, to make those plates invisible.

They have to be on the back, generally facing backwards, but that's about it.

What a useless law then.. I have to stay within a couple of degrees or I get fined. It even has to be lighted but since you can't turn off the lights on a bike it's allowed to have it directly under it. Since shortly it's not allowed to have it on the side like many Harley riders have.
