only approved number plates can be displayed and it is illegal for anyone other than approved manufacturers to produce number plates as they must be reflective etc etc, did all the car driving cops pull over and book all the motorcycle cops??

No. A legislative change was made to allow Police motorcycles to display the plates.

SA Government tried a few years ago to reintroduce front number plates for motorbikes as a measure to catch speeding bikes that don't get detected in a front on speed camera photo. Police bikes got the front rego number to set an example. I believe they are still trying to get a law passed but the logistics of putting on a front plate may prevent it. The MRA in SA has been lobbying against it.

I hope the idea doesn't catch on.

In the mra magazine they reported that the adr people had decided motorcycles will not be required to display front plates and the proposal has been permanently dropped.
