Mine is just below the license plate.

John,
I normally keep mine on the left side LOWER A-arm cover... (You can JUST see the tip of it; poking around the LF fender)
This year; the Tech got to it before I had a chance to remind him, and he slapped on the belt cover out back...

Mine is on the lower front portion of the left shock.

Inspection stickers on motorcycles are a state law the they very a good bit from state to state.

 

[cuznjohn]

well he told me where to put it, the last one was left side bottom a arm but now he said top left side

 

[Bob Denman]

Top or bottom; it's all good! :thumbup:
Pick the spot that's easiest for you to access! (But NOT the top of the frunklid! :yikes

 

[Chupaca]

Well..!!

We don't have them so not a problem but when I worked in Texas they had a back plate for the license witha tab for the sticker. If you have the time and inclination check with the dmv and see if you can nail it down...:dontknow:

 

[cuznjohn]

i have always thought that as long a the police can see it w/o effort than it is all good

I keep mine in any other State but here.

The 2nd most free State in the Union dies not require said inspections or stickers. hyea:

As someone pointed out, it depends on the state. Some are very particular and placing it somewhere else can result in a ticket.

What's an inspection sticker??? :roflblack:

No requirements from Virginia, just have to display it. I put it on the left-side panel covering the belt, next to my county registration and my work parking permit.

Only downside is that plastic needs to be SUPER clean for stickers to stick for an entire year. For some reason, my county stickers never last the whole year, I've had to use clear packing tape to hold them to the bike, grrr.

Depends on the state. Usually they inspect safety equipment like brakes and lights, some states/regions do emissions testing.

 

[jcthorne]

I did not think there were ANY states doing emissions testing on motorcycles yet. This is why motorcycles do not have the standard OBD-II connector like all cars and trucks do.

(Don't give them any ideas... :shocked

NC does state inspections but did away with the sticker several years ago. It's all computerized now.

Dave, my dealer told me that the sticker must be on the left side, within the front 1/3 of the bike, and visible. Last two years they placed the insp sticker on the belt guard, but since they had a visit from the state police, they now put them on the left splash guard. My sticker blew/washed off during my marathon ryde from TN in the pouring rain. So, my dealer replaced the sticker and this time put it back on the belt guard.

Mine is here . . . I get mine inspected by a custom trike conversion shop, because the only dealer in WV near me (where I bought my Spyder) doesn't do inspections . . .
