Don't know for sure, but I would think cops would rather it be on the chain side. So they can see it better from there angle from their driver seat.

kinda depends on the set up, if your exhaust is on one side then you would have to mount your plate on the other side. Im planning on mounting mine just below my seat, not sure what side though. i have seen it where your pegs were, assuming you have forward controls...

depends on what your local laws are. some places require the plate to be seen at up to a 45 degree angle from both sides. Check your dmv web site ,they give the requirements for such stuff.

I've seen them on either side make sure like they said check local laws and there is a height requirement as well.

In Pa, you must have it on the left side mounted horizontally. Must be lighted.
