technically this was always the case. the yearly stickers are unrelated.

Yes, but a lot easier to notice a plate back then with an expired or no sticker vs now that there are no stickers at all - cops need to use ALPR or manually run them instead of eyeballing.

Been like that for a few years here. All electronic now and I think automatic scanners here as well.

Which shop? Sounds like the guy is unreasonable, but he's going by the book on the turn signals. I believe they need to be a minimum distance from the center of the bike to pass. I don't know if they need to be OEM, but they may not notice if you buy an OEM-ish looking set. As for the costs:

- 1 left grip ( a pair is as cheap as $10)
- 4 turn signals ($20-$50 for a set of 4 on the cheap side)
- hardware for gas tank were missing but they are both there just not OEM (what exactly is this hardware?)
- one brake caliper bleeder cap ($1?)
- one of the four screws that hold my chain guard ($1?)

So your bike isn't worth safetying for $60?

Tank bolts were just some M8 bolts i bought same thread pitch and yes of course it is , it was the way he didnt want to go ahead with it was and is my problem then charge me the full price to not put it in the tablet ...at least then id of known if there were anything seriously wrong with it...not cosmetic **** ..also said i had a massive oil leak ...which is crazy talk my bike is sitting behind me in my dining room and hot or cold no leaks .. it was just his lack of wanting to do it that makes me upset because I wasted 2 weeks of time booking that appointment thinking I was going to get on the road within a couple days of that at least now I've got to book another appointment and wait another probably week or two you know what I'm saying 60 bucks is f****** nothing dude

You can register the bike in your name without the safety but need the safety in order to get plates. Also without the safety the ownership will read unfit.

You don't need safety for plates or to register it fyi.

I've seen them inside the windows of cars. I've never seen one on a bike..

Perhaps they may still issues them to bikes but you would just be expected to have it on you if asked by the PD.

I got this temp paper plate when I bought one of my previous bikes in Ottawa for cheap adn rode it back home - no need safety adn good for 10days. You don’t need to “stick it” to a bike, just to have it with you. I mounted one of my existing previous bikes plate to the bike to avoid the attention riding with no plate. Nobody stopped me so can’t say how cops react on these..
