Seems like a lot of money. I used a $3 cabinet hinge and just reach back and flip it up whenever necessary.

Looks pretty trick if you ask me. I just wonder what the fine would be if you get caught with it installed on the street? Would be great for running the toll roads here in Dallas. But I have heard at over 120mph you are going to fast for the cameras shutter speed and the pic will be blurry.

in england they did a test on tv,using a ferrari. 137mph it had to go before the cam` wouldn`t flash
No worries then, I can go 137 easy.

well here in hawaii, i checked with a friend who is a cop and told me the state law concerning license plates;
there shall be no cover of any kind covering or be placed over the license plate; such as plastic, glass or any material. the only thing legal here is frames.
so i guess this is illegal. oh well i just have to get one or two. just to irritate my friend.

Hey when was the last time you seen a Harley pulled over for laoud pipes? Never! What about the licence plate with no light.? Never! The list can go on and on. I paid a 300 dollar ticket for doing a wheelie in bumper to bumper in myrtle beach during the biker week there. Point is how was I doing a wheelie if my tire never left the ground? Must have been that R on my back that pissed them off!!!
