Why spend the $$$
I like the plate colors.Better shocks needed ?
I guess they didn't realize there was a reason that was available to get.
I'm aware... the black plates were to 69, the blue plates were to 81, then white plates 82 onward. Unless they were going to also offer a legacy blue plate, I would have rounded up to 79 or 80 and older for the black plates.It was halted in 1969 (according to google) so I would go with 69 or earlier.

The blue plates went past 1981. I was issued a blue plate in 1986/87. Still have it on a bike. This is an old pic.I'm aware... the black plates were to 69, the blue plates were to 81, then white plates 82 onward.

Just my (unpopular) opinion, but I think the black plates look silly on newer cars.![]()
