Would you, if your livelihood depended on it? :shock:
This is one of those "grey areas" that has been discussed in depth here and on numerous other forums.

The best way to get a blue plate is to buy a street legal bike, as some of the new off-road bikes are now. Otherwise, you have some work to do.
If a green plate covers 95% of your riding requirements, you might want to leave it alone.
