Illegal number plate in Switzerland - A big no no?

My mate just warned me of changing my numberplate over before hitting Switzerland, or if possible, for the entire trip. This is all hypothetical by the way :rolleyes:

So, has anyone in Switzerland been pulled over for their plate or simply not risked it? I'm tempted to simply swap my plates over before going in... Or maybe even just admit defeat and put the dinner plate back on.

But but! Dinner plate

Lol, ok guys. Thanks for the input, it is indeed not worth the hassle at all. And I've heard many horror stories about their over the top law. Which is a shame as a large part of my trip is through Switzerland.

I'll slap a GB sticker on the back of the RH side pannier

Do you think the light stickers are 100% essential as well? I never bothered with any of this when I went over to Europe between Christmas and new years.

They are. I spend a lot of time in Switzerland on my Street Triple and it's fantastic there.

Aces, it turns out I'm only spending a day or 2 in Switzerland anyway, shorter than I thought!
