Those translate to an internal IP address that isn't accessible by
anyone not on that network.

OK, trying again after sleep, a morning coffee and a quick test ...

Without wanting to sound pedantic - do you get a free windscreen with em
(I don't have one and it would be nice of Gov't to flick one my way!)



Stan

 

Back to the drawing board I reckon.

 

How come those bikes both have the same number plate?

P

 

And the naked bike version?

 

I reckon we should _all_ use that number

Maybe we can get a batch made up...

+--------+
| ZT-823 |

big (not sure where I'm gonna stick it on the Monster...)

 

What? you're kidding...

Interesting. Is the decal colour coordinated to the bike?

Do we have a size for the decals? (bet it's too big for the Z50's fairing)

How much would it cost if we made up a load of them, keeping the ZT 823,
with just a small aus.moto as a sortof subscript?

Seems to me that as they are not required in any state as yet, that the
number should be more... creative.

What, for example, is the numberplate of the private car of the minister
for transport in Victoria?

Zebee

 

simple solution: make windshields compulsory and tinted ones illegal
"for you own protection" of course.

 

His plate is personalised
It's WNKR

 

I like the wy your mind works....

P

 

They'd have to be called "Safety Screens"

Or looking like numebrplates. Lots of them. All with diffrent numbers.

Zebee

 

Dunno about the current transport minister, but the son of the transport

Or applying another sticker on top featuring a bullet-hole, water streaks,
bug splatters..

Perhaps "Freedom Screens"?

 

There we run into the same issues that got the old bracket above the
headlight design removed in every nation in the world (with one or two
third world exceptions) on safety grounds. That design caused
injuries to riders and to pedestrians involved in collisions.

I'd really rather the government didn't require me to mount a
potential guillotine on the front of my bike thanks muchly.
