Finally got my 60-day temporary plate, and my Empulse is now road legal! I was going to laminate, basically a piece of paper, and mount it to the license plate holder. The DMV clerk said the gas guys just tape theirs to the gas tanks, which I do have something that resembles a gas tank. How did you mount yours?

I guess it depends on where you live. In Oregon I just put the temporary in my pocket until the real plates come in. I have been pulled over once in the last 20 years. In that case I showed the police the temporary, they said thanks and off I went. I think putting the temp on the bike is silly (but you may live in a silly state) because someone can just remove it and place in on their car. I'm actually a bit surprised that my Empulse hasn't been pulled over yet as an excuse to see it.

Come to think of it, I can't recall CA issuing a temporary plate for some time. All I get when buying a new motorcycle is an empty license plate frame and a small strip of paper which is the temporary registration that you carry around with you in your wallet. The metal plate made by the State's prison workers, arrives within 30 to 60 days after the sale, via snail mail.
My daughter just bought a new car and she didn't get a temporary plate, either. However, I seem to recall that CA used to issue a temporary paper "plate", but that was a while ago. I wonder why things have changed?

Thanks for the input. I've decided to just tape it to the main battery frame. I was careful not to cover the Empulse R logo. ;)
