In mass we need to put it on the license plate along with the registration sticker.

I'm in northern virginia and have been stopped specifically for an inspection check. So I'm definitely going to put it somewhere on the bike, just trying to figure out the least ugly place.

I have been in riding in NoVA since 1998 and have never been stopped on my bike for an inspection check. You must have been doing something they didn't like and made up the inspection check garbage.

...and it was a friend of mine that used to be and inspector that said don't waste your time getting the bike inspected unless you really want to.

I have gone 4 years so far....my friend who used to be an inspector said he has never had his bikes inspected...nor has he been stopped for not having one....he has gone over 10 years.

I put mine on the top of the left fork tube between the triple tree so that it is pretty well hidden by the fairing.

+1 on that.

VA state law says it must be displayed and visible on the left side of the bike. My dealer, Patriot HD in Fairfax, hooked me up with a mounting bracket similar to the one Olde Skool has on his scoot.

I put mine on top of the tail light.
