Were you told to put a GB sticker on your rear; so to speak? Have been wondering where/if I put one on my Pani for later this year.
Easier if you have a plate made up and include the GB on the plate, I had the GB sticker already so just bonded an extension on to the plate to allow it to fit,
Ok. But we’re you told to do it by Euro tunnel or your insurance company? Not sure it’s a legal requirement when riding abroad? Anyone know?
You can get slimline GB stickers that assuming your number plate is of a legal size will fit on, I got them for a couple of quid off eBay and never got challenged with it https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GB-NUMBE...-/252406209891?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292
Don't know if it is a legal requirement, didn't want to give them an excuse to fine me for not displaying one, stickers like Bezza says are probably the easiest option, you'll also need a green card from your insurance now as well as the other docs you need to carry.
GB stickers and number plates You do not need a GB sticker if your number plate includes the GB identifier on its own or with the Union flag. You do not need to display a GB sticker to drive in Ireland. You must display a GB sticker clearly on the rear of your vehicle if your number plate has any of the following: a Euro symbol a national flag of England, Scotland or Wales numbers and letters only – no flag or identifier If you’re in Spain, Cyprus or Malta, you must display a GBsticker no matter what is on your number plate.

I feel a Blue Peter-esque sticky back plastic lash up is on the cards. As soon as we can invade, I mean holiday, abroad.
Now the UK has left the EU with a deal, these rules have changed. You now do need a GB sticker if your car has a Euro-plate, as well as if the number plate has no national identifier on it or displays a national flag of England, Scotland or Wales.
Still for sale, will fit 899 and 1199 only, different kit is needed for the 959 and 1299, thanks to Stewarty for the heads up
I get quite a lot of confusion over whether my Gen 2 R is an 1199 or a 1299. Obviously it has the 1198cc engine so not a 1299, but lots of stuff from the 1199 range fits, and lots from the 1299 doesn’t. I don’t call it an 1199R for obvious reasons, but the 1299R is a different beastie… Any ideas
Lots of common parts across the Pani range from 899 up. The Gen 2 Pani R is the race homologation version of the 1299 bike.
