I went to Loews today and got 2 ss bolts ,2 lock washers and 2 nuts . If they vibrate off now w/ checking every chance I remember , then I'll put little padlocks on the son of guns.

Plastic bolts and nuts  :o . I am a steel kinda guy, either way that blows man
About the same time you're dragging your knees through a series of tight left-right-handers on Sunday afternoon, some guy in white shoes is sweating a 3-foot putt. Go figure.

Hey don't laugh but this is a great idea. i have a black fram around my plate and 4 lack zipties with the locking thing out back and it looks really clean and no ugle bolts. Does not come loose even when i had the tire hit it.

Zip ties at all 4 corners of the plate. Never had a problem.

I lost a tag like that, too.  I'm not sure if it vibrated loose or somebody ganked it.  It read UGLDUC.  Pissed me off, 'cause the DMV wouldn't reissue it to me.  Now I have WTFDUC, and that thing is bolted on with nylon washers.  I like the loctite idea, though.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Pepboys sells a anti theft type of nuts and "bolts" that are anti vibration as well.  Cost about $3 or so.
