Does anyone know the correct size number plate for my 1975 Z1B?I have been told it would have been pressed alloy,9"by6" with 2.5" letters.Is this right?Cheers.

Sounds about right,just had one made for my Z1A,will measure it to check the sizes if you like?

Yes please Steve.

Justin, the measurements of my plate are 9.5 inches x 6.5 inches and the letters are 2.5 x 1.75 inches, guess this is regulation size, had mine made by Framptons,(just google) though I wouldn,t recomend them as the first one they sent was not up to scratch although in fact it was actually scratched! and covered with overspray!! second attempt was better.
Have seen Tippers plates and they are good, though a little more expensive
hope this helps.

Years ago I got pulled up in Chertsey by P.C.Plod/Alexi Sayle lookalike?
"Do you know why I`ve stopped you?
"No?"
"your number plate should be....X"xY"
The letters on your number plate should be.....so and so x so and so
"oh?"

Any way if your in doubt,ask P.C.Plod.

I believe that pre 1973 was when you could have the non yellow plates.

Here's a link re sizes etc -

Justin, put on the smallest plate you can
