- About this plate
- PERSONALIZED PLATES. North Dakota is one of the few states in this group to legislate a SEPARATE, SMALLER cap for motorcycles (six rather than seven), and to make a personalized plate available on PERMANENTLY registered collector vehicles for a one-time fee, which is why the categories list includes trailers.
- About the format
- The six-character motorcycle cap is a narrower bound not separately encoded.
- Fee
- $25.00 per registration period, waived where the plate is a gold star, military sacrifice or prisoner-of-war plate; a one-time $100.00 fee for vehicles registered as collector vehicles under § 39-04-10.6 (§ 39-04-10.3)
