You know, Florida has just passed that new law that prohibits the tag from being mounted anywhere except the rear fender on scooters with a $1000 fine for 1st offense and increasing $$ for 2nd offense, and loss of license thereafter.......talked to someone at Biketoberfest at Miller's that got nailed for a side-mounted one.
spyder
that only applies for FLA bikes, can't enforce on out of state bikes.
I have been encountering a lot of "unique" laws in FL. Spy'd is right about the side mounted tag. Although I don't know how they are going to enforce it being that HD did make the Nightster for sale in FL which had to pass Federal regulations at the time of manufacture. It's like Myrtle Beach trying to supersede SC state law by requiring people to wear helmets. I got into a discussion down there over the validity of my SC driver's license. FL offers a "Florida Only" driver's license if you are a part time resident. They apparently have repealed a class "D" which is comparable to my current SC class "E" which is non-CDL
over 26,000 lbs. They tried explaining that new Federal laws are requiring all licenses to have the same classification. They weren't happy when I told them that SC was already RealID compliant and that my class "E" was already valid. During all of this is when I found out about the different endorsements for motorcycles which apparently are not uniform state to state either. FL will recognize my motorcycle license and allow my to ride a trike and sidecar. However I need an endorsement in SC to do so. Both of which ironically will cost more $$$.
