L plates, or D plates?

[Red Dragon]

ok i have just bought a 125cc after completing my cbt and i am fully aware i have to display L plates or D plates if you in Wales.

for those who dont know the Welsh word for learning is Dysgw or something similar (my welsh aint that great)

but i was wondering if anyone can answer me these questions...

1. are you allowed to ride on D plates whilst only riding in the UK? or do you have to switch to L plates once you cross over the border?

2. Is a person riding in Wales allowed to display a D plate on the front and a L plate on the back? or vice versa. Or do they both have to match??

why am i asking?

why not. just a bit of fun.

they have to match afaik. if you live in England you have to display L's

If you live in Wales you have the choice of either but it's recommended if you go into England a lot that you display L's as most English people won't realise what a D plate is

Dysgu! Front and back have to match i think. Can ride with D around UK but as mentioned not many people will know although the police should!
