## About this plate

ARKANSAS MOTORCYCLE. Included because L2 names motorcycle as a core class and because Arkansas plainly serializes it separately, the sequence has cycled through four distinct arrangements since 1979, which is only possible on an independent numbering space. Note the contrast with Texas, where a motorcycle plate certainly exists (§ 504.943(b) makes motorcycles a one-plate class) but no arrangement could be obtained at all, so no series was minted.
