Spacing looks okay to me. Great gift. I assume the GC is your initials?

Yes GC initials. As McD says not correct spacing but I’m hoping it won’t attract too much attention.
As it's full size (even if not correctly spaced, no BS mark and no makers mark...) you'll probably be ok.
A local traffic cop once said that they tend to ignore any one of speed (within reason), noise and plate, but if you have combination of 2 or more you'll likely be pulled over.
That’s good to know, the Remus exhausts with the baffles out are pretty nice sounding but not obnoxious… I think.
Life is too short to ride with your baffles in.
Baffles out surely?
Always. When I sold the last bike it took me two weeks to find the baffles, thought I'd binned them.
My bad, I missed the word ‘to’ in that sentence.
Nice plate !The mighty Mrs C bought me this for the Bonneville for Christmas. Im ready for the roasting for
A. The plate itself
and
B. The spacing
But I thought she did pretty well.
I bought this for a Tiger 900GT
That is not Thames Ditton. It is Hampton.Saw this at the weekend in Thames Ditton.

Reminds me of the scrapyard owner who had the row with Lamborghini and was doing pictures with
TOO 510W on it…… Seems that number is no longer in use.
I saw 2 SLY on an Audi A5 the other day.
It would have been TO05 LOW but either way it doesn’t appear to be on a car
Seen on a modified Seat Leon recently (on a motorbike plate):
W7
NKR
I only hope that it is somehow ironic…
this was back in the ‘80s so in the date suffix era. W would have been 1980/81. Was an old Countach he was having issues with.

this wasn’t the picture I was thinking of but show what I meant….
Edit:- Seems it was sold in 2020 for £13,300.
Was on Lamborghini Countach chassis 1121320 while in the ownership of Tim Dutton-Wooley. This pic was on a magazine cover.

Found it - and the article is scathing :-)
Range Rover Evoque in front of me at the lights today JO0 5PAN, obviously before altering the spacing it was JO05 PAN. And the name Jo Spanwick printed where a dealer name normally is. When the spacing is altered, numbers used as letters, and THEN it still needs to be explained, then things have got rather desperate.

Like that one :-)
Can see the idea of the plate….
Probably my favourite plate on this thread - especially being on a Vauxhall Corsa.
I recall many years ago a low spec Skoda or Lada with a single letter single number registration - something like S1 or S5 - worth a multiple of the car itself. Fabulous
Had no intention of buying this as was looking for another to match my initials but could not resist:
Just bought vehicle registration L31YCA direct from DVLA
Will have to find a plate maker who can tweak it to: LƎI YCA
Not perfect but near enough. And was not expensive – in fact was their standard? £250 price

"Well they would say that ... wouldn't they!"
I'd keep it as is - if you know you'll know, no illegal fonts required.
If you have to spell it out or mess around with the spacing then we have another thread for that.
Happy with standard font and border.

Ridiculous, just buy a T-shirt to express your enthusiasm.
Over-judgemental disapproval noted.
"Well they would say that ... wouldn't they!"
Or maybe some tats.

^^ The forum's "miserable old grannies'" comments were expected ... :)
Will likely be a few more and can guess who they might be from

Grannies with a sense of humour :-)
… was FAL 1C on a navy blue Rolls Shadow II spotted on Knightsbridge. It was John Entwhistle’s car (from The Who).

Today received a full refund from DVLA i.r.o. the "personalised vehicle registration purchased in error"
The old adage: 'Seemed like a good idea at the time' applies.

"Well they would say that ... wouldn't they!"
And now seems ridiculous…
I’m not sure about that but Steve Parish had PEN1S on a Mercedes SL500 back in the eighties.
A subtle difference but Steve Parish's was PEN 15, PEN 1S was never issued.
Can see the idea of the plate….
Would suit a friend of mine who bears the surname RESTRAY.
I thought that there was a famous picture of Fiona Richmond sitting on the bonnet of a car bearing that reg. no..
Turns out I was wrong & it's actually this -
The plate was owned by Paul Raymond at the time.
(Younger readers may require to Google Fiona & Paul. It's probably NSFW.)

I stand erected!
Not bad
Saw 13 OBS on a Vanquish at the weekend, spaced to look like "BOBS".
Anyone know how much WE11 ONS might be worth?

Looking at the DVLA site for plates available to buy now, all the WExx ONS plates are between £250 and £699
WE11 xxx plates go from £399 to £1799 for some reason, though the vast majority of them are £399
Unless there's something special about WE11 ONS that I can't spot, I'd suggest at most it's worth £80 less than the original purchase price (whatever that was) as there's no shortage of either We11 or ONS plates available
Just saw W1NCH on the M1 this morning.
Was not on any 4x4, or overtly company vehicle, which I felt was a shame

A friend of mine just sold his plate at auction. He thought it was funny when he originally bought it but I think that soon wore off !
The plate was BE11 ENS !!!!
Saw this in Clitheroe some time ago.
