Pretty sure that's worth 50. Adding a trim ring to it is worth 10 more.

Dude, you do not need a license plate to stand out.  The 15K in farkles pretty much does it.   ;D. But I do like it.

Is this a first?  ZG has done something to remove black?  THAT alone should get ya at least .01% back per letter ;)  Good thing ya didn't use SST, "Super Slow Tourer" ;D
That is nice and fitting for your bike, very classy.

Jay, you need to get the state to do something about that damn ugly yeller color. It might be mistaken for a slow moving vehicle sign.

Adding a trim ring to it is worth 10 more

If the trim ring is a welded chain AND chrome - add 20.

10.3 HP static. If beer and lawn chairs are involved, 13.8 HP

Of greater importance, everyone will know what passed them...

Why would you put the stickers on it before having it power coated black?
