    Same as above, under seat cowl. Mainly because I think they look carp on the bike.

    It's car related but I thought I'd share seeing as we're talking about disc position.

    Picture the scene,
    Hospital appointment, no parking spaces to be had, so the little lad had a blue badge, as much as I loath using it I dropped MrsB off for the appointment and parked the car on a side road.
    Technically the car was facing the wrong direction on the carriage way, anyway the upshot is, I got a £60 fixed penalty not because I was facing the wrong way, but because the taxdisc was not visible from the kerb side.

    I challenged the traffic wardens decision for the ticket as I was within the boundaries of the "blue badge scheme"
    I got a great letter back from the council sympathising with the traffic wardens decision, but they were upholding his ticket because of the position I left the vehical contravened health and safety.
    The traffic warden going about his daily duties is not permitted to enter a carriageway to check the badges.
    Should the badge not be visible from the kerb a fixed penalty will be issued.

    Heres the hit

    They backed this theory up with a leaflet and also with a fucking photograph of my car and is position taken from, yes the fuckin road!!!

    I Simply said, surely while the tosser was stood that side taking the picture, he could have checked the badge!

    Local authority. Who'd have them

    Stick std Tax disc holder in a Vice
    Bend the last 30mm or so of the fixing tag over at around 40 degrees
    Undo top RHS Mirror nut
    Affix there, re-do nut.

    Voila! (Keeps the rain from feckin the paper up as they all leak to a degree!)
