Take out your mobile phone and open the "Traffic Management 12123 APP". On the pop-up homepage, click the "Search" box at the top. On the pop-up page, enter "New Vehicle Plate Selection" and then click on the "New Vehicle Registration" option that appears below. On the pop-up page, select "Motorcycle" and then click "Confirm". Choose "New Vehicle Registration Pre-selection of License Plate Number". Click "Proceed". At the city selection section, choose the location of the motorcycle and click "Confirm" to proceed with the motorcycle license plate number selection.

I recently completed the process of selecting a license plate number for my newly purchased motorcycle on the 12123 platform, and the whole experience was quite smooth. First, you need to download the 12123 app from the application store and complete the real-name registration and login using your ID card. On the homepage, locate the 'New Vehicle Plate Selection' option under 'Motor Vehicle Services.' At this point, the system will prompt you to select the vehicle type—remember to choose the 'Motorcycle' option. Next, enter the vehicle identification number (VIN) and engine number from your purchase invoice, and after verifying the information is correct, you can proceed to the plate selection stage. I recommend trying the custom plate selection first by inputting your preferred combination of letters and numbers. If your desired combination is already taken, you may need to try a few times. If that doesn’t work, you can switch to the random selection mode, where the system provides ten number options at a time. Once you confirm your plate number, make sure to visit the vehicle registration office within three days to complete the registration process; otherwise, the plate will become invalid. The entire process takes about twenty minutes, which is much more convenient than waiting in line.

As a motorcycle enthusiast with over a decade of experience, I've gone through the license plate selection process four or five times. First, ensure all vehicle purchase documents are complete - invoices, certificates of conformity, etc. must be photographed and uploaded before plate selection. Open the 12123 APP, select 'New Vehicle Plate Selection' under 'Service Handling', being careful not to mistakenly choose car instead of motorcycle. After filling in basic information, you'll face the choice: custom plates require avoiding combinations prohibited by local numbering rules, while random selection might yield unexpectedly good numbers. Last time I encountered a random plate ending with 888 but passed on it, personally preferring a custom plate with my initials. Two important reminders: don't waste your 20 custom plate attempts, and always screenshot the successful selection confirmation SMS. Complete these steps, then bring your materials to the DMV - you'll get your metal plates within an hour.

Last month, I used the 12123 app to select a license plate for my beloved motorcycle, and it was super convenient! First, I downloaded and installed the app from the app store. After registering and logging in, I could easily spot the prominent 'New Vehicle Plate Selection' entry on the homepage. The interface for motorcycle plate selection is very similar to that for cars, but you need to make sure to check the correct vehicle type. I double-checked the VIN three times—getting even one digit wrong could mean failing to register. The most exciting part was, of course, picking the number. I tried combining my birthday and initials, and succeeded on the third attempt. The system automatically reserves the number for three days, and I went to the DMV the next day to complete the paperwork. The whole process took just one lunch break—much faster than taking half a day off to do it in person. The only slight disappointment was that all the double-letter plates I wanted were already taken.

Before selecting a motorcycle license plate, you need to prepare several things: Make sure the frame number and engine number on the purchase invoice match exactly; have a photo of the vehicle certificate saved on your phone; ensure your 12123 account has completed facial recognition. When operating, log into the APP and enter the new vehicle plate selection module, paying special attention to selecting 'two-wheeled or three-wheeled motorcycle' under 'license plate type'. I recommend starting the selection at 9 a.m. when the database is freshest. For self-selected numbers, it's advisable to prepare 30 alternative groups in advance, including special anniversaries or auspicious numbers. After submitting the application, go to the DMV as soon as possible with all paper documents. If you change your mind and want to select a plate on-site, that's fine, but the number chosen on 12123 will be invalidated.
