## About this plate

MOTORCYCLE. The character-budget evidence here is better than the size evidence, which is the reverse of the usual situation: Vermont's own DMV form states a six-character maximum for motorcycles, motor-driven cycles and small trailers, while no instrument states a plate dimension for any Vermont plate at all.
