My second hand bike is all black no plate attached. How is it attached, Glued? Phil C If you dont believe there's a price for this sweet paradise Remind me to show you the scars...

I'm not aware of any falling off in later years. They are glued. 2004 Triumph Speedmaster (J Lo) 2006 Yamaha Stratoliner (Adele)

It was attached the same way as nuthin's, rubbery adhesive. I kinda like the look of it not there... but I don't think I have a choice in the matter anyway! It's probably just grown on me. 04 Speedy, 904cc 12:1 CR JE pistons, ProCom CDI, Nology coils, Hotwires, lightened flywheel, CR ll's, 18 tooth front sprocket, freak kit, cocktail shaker and scypter exhaust, bobbed rear fender, headwinds headlight, wires in bars, and Scott Oiler
