            Hmmmm, my memory is a freeking joke. Let's see....I want to say $46 here in NH, and the tag arrived in the mail within about 8 days.

            FYI, Gary F is getting the same "XS11" but his is for the state of Maine. So with mine, Dpotter's and now Gary's, only 47 states left. They're running out. LOL

              I guess I better hurry down for mine then since there are several other xsives in California, I might get stuck with one of the variants.

                Nice plate ... Here in Ontario personal plates are $235.00 plus the yearly sticker fee. We can only use 5 numbers or letters. That being the case I could only order "XS11F" for my restored 1979 bike and "XS11E" for my 1978 hop-up bike. I ordered them a few weeks ago but it will take up to 10 weeks for them to arrive. You would think that at those prices they could have them in the mailbox much faster.

                  Hi Rob,
                  some years back my boys bought me a personal plate. At that time my primary ride was an XS650 so that's what I wanted. But no, I couldn't have that "because we may in the future need to issue that as part of a normal plate series" so I settled for "XS" which worked out OK for me.
                  But $235? In Saskatchewan it's $82.50 which is quite enough to pay for self-indulgence. You can buy a pair of tires for $235.

                    I don't know about other states here in the U.S. but in NH, on Veteran's Plates, you only get four digits.

                      See mine on the left, under my signature. Someone else has XS11 in NY, possibly Gary G.
