Ken is a very pleasant chap to deal with, has always been very helpful.

Is the seller who sold you these hardridden?

[UPDATE]

Delivered today. I just quoted the reg number in the photo above for the style of the plate, plus my actual registration - £24.99 for the pair delivered.

Hardridden is his E-Bay username. I contacted him directly with my requirements and he was spot on.

I ordered mine Sunday night and got them Tuesday morning, great quality and quick delivery. I dont like the facelift badges so I had Ken put the pre facelift logo on mine.

When i put my private plates on i had them made up by Hardridden that was about 4 or 5 years ago. When they arrived they were perfect spot on quality
BUT now they are starting to break down especially the rear smiley plate
the yellow backing is starting to separate from the perspex and water is
getting in along the bottom .....Hopefully its just a one off

tbh for the price he charges if they last 3 years I will be happy.

Yes indeed, I ordered mine Tuesday, and they arrived the next morning. They look very good indeed.

The ebay seller is called Ken and his direct contact details can be found here if you'd rather deal direct than on ebay, I communicated all via email.

www.yourplates.co.uk

I also asked him to produce a set of plates with the Club Logo on them, which he did once I supplied him with the official artwork.

When asked if these would be road legal and pass an MOT, he suggested that as long as there is a valid postcode and plate maker code displayed he saw no reason why not.

Until the next MOT, I won't really know for sure, we can but see, but buyer beware as neither I, nor he, nor the Club will be held responsible for any issues you may encounter should you decide to invest in a set.

He has the artwork on file now, you just need to supply a valid postcode (I have obscured the one on mine for display purposes only)

If anyone wants to take a closer look at the plates he did for me, I will be bringing them to the National Meet on Sunday

I suspect as long as the font and spacing is correct, I doubt an MOT tester would look much further. Mine passed 2 MOT's without any problems.
