Hi,

I recently borrowed a CJ750 sidecar from a friend and parked it underground at my place overnight. It is registered in Shanghai with the atrociously expensive 沪A plates, which were gone when i came down in the morning. I don't know if they fell off the previous day while i was riding or if they got stolen during the night, but that's not really the point.

The point is that it's probably hopeless to try and get the legal plate replacements as these sidecar registrations are always a bit shady... so i bought a fake plate to replace the lost one. I picked it up last night and it looks perfect, i can't tell the difference and don't think anyone could from a normal distance.

I'm posting this to see what people think. I can't really see the harm in doing this, apart that some illegal scooter is now riding with the same number. The bike is still legal and registered with blue book and all, the plate is just a piece of metal right?
