Looks like not all Historic Vehicles can display B&W number plates.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I was thinking of fitting Black & Silver plates on my Superdream that is Historic for Taxation purposes.
Looks like it's not road legal to do that as it was first rgistered in August 1980, not a biggie my 400 has reflective plates.
I'm assuming the leiglation was amended as per this article.

Nurse Julie:
Cut off is vehicles manufactured or registered before Jan 1st 1980 and registered as Historic.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Seems odd that they bothered to change the legislation at all Julie,iirc it was up to August 1973 previously.
Athame57:
Maybe once they started using cast wheels the bikes started looking too modern! ;D If you had a Triumph you could probably get away with it. ;)
Bryanj:
Thats because the reflective plates ORIGINALY became mandatory in 1973 so the before 80 is a relaxation of the original law
