FOC plate is the first official organization plate for motorcycles in state history

CHARLESTON – The West Virginia Coal Association and Friends of Coal are pleased to announce the availability of an official West Virginia Friends of Coal license plate for motorcycles. The plate, which is identical (other than size) to our popular Friends of Coal automobile license plate, is reflective black with a white border and white lettering.  It is the first organization motorcycle plate offered by the state.

“We have had a lot of people asking about a motorcycle plate for Friends of Coal,” said Bill Raney, President of the West Virginia Coal Association. “We worked with the West Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles and were able to get it done. We hope all our Friends of Coal like it.”


“I am excited to partner with organizations like Friends of Coal to offer customers special license plates, including our first organization motorcycle plate,” said DMV Commissioner Pat Reed.

The plate is available for Class G motorcycles and will cost $56 for the first year and $31 for renewals.  To obtain a plate, go to the Friends of Coal website at www.friendsofcoal.org and click on the link.
