Front Vented Number Plate

5/1/2023 6:06pm

Chris crushes it on his plates, we all seem to have a different style of doing them. Price wise I think we are all around the same price. (Haven’t looked at anyone’s prices to be honest) with me doing Anchor full time and not being a graphics company like Chris with Dare Decals. I have to have the people send me their graphic and front plate. That way the fonts are the same, colors are the same. You might be seeing some more bigger names and teams running them come outdoors.

With modern liquid cooled four strokes a vented plate is just a silly fashion accessory. 

With that said, they are so cool, and I think I need one.   Laughing

In fairness, mine is a two stroke

Only the best! Didn't know you were doing the plates as well, otherwise would've reached out. Next time!

You can see here how gas gas actually notches the front plate on the bottoms of each side from the factory to make sure none of the plate is in the way of the radiator at all. Even with the bars turned all the way to the side there is a wide open path to the radiator. If the bike had one of the old school square front plates it would be covering the top of the radiator here. Its simple yet genius!

79405401-2292-418D-B59E-0D862F37CD7D.jpeg?VersionId=KQ3CtOqj.h BbXICfVidI made mine for $3. I bought black gutter guard at lowes. Used Tinsnips to cut the guard and just used a heated razor to cut the plate out. For first time effort it wasn't horrible. Using a cycra plate had some different challenges and how the ktm brake line runs down the back. I think I saw some of these companies were charging like $150 or something ridiculous, not including the plate! I did paint the rivets on the numbers white since this picture.

 

Did you cut the plate and then put the graphics on?  If so, how?  Do you think that the heated knife would mess up the graphics if you cut it with the graphics already on the plastic?  I want to do this but my graphics are already on my plastic.

I’ve done three of my own, all with the graphics already installed. It did not melt the graphics. Not saying it couldn’t, but mine did not. I just hear my knife, not the plastics/graphics themselves.

The guy at Anchor Tape Company is cool and does a great job!  He texted me a picture of mine he just finished up.
