What is the significance, or history behind the license plate laying down on the fender verses straight up?

On my Sportster the plate lies back.

I like the look of the plate laying back on the fender verses it being perpendicular to the fender. Is it just a personal preference?

Cleaner lines and not just having it stick up in the air.

Factory makes it perfectly straight, because that's complying to most laws that the plate has to be verticaly mounted, and in plain view.

If you lay the plate down you dont gash open your leg swinging it over the sled,

No significance... personal preference.

Thanks for the info.
