I see that the the recently passed "Land Transport (Road User) Amendment Rule 2011" makes makes "T" and "B" lights in bus lanes equally apply to motorcycles and buses.
http://www.legislation.govt.nz/regulation/public/2011/0307/15.0/whole.html#dlm3972748


8 Traffic signals in form of T or B
Clause 3.6 is amended by adding the following subclause:
“(5) If the rider of a cycle, moped, or motorcycle is lawfully using a bus lane, this clause applies to the rider in the same way that it applies to the driver of a bus.”

So it wasn’t always like that?
Next you’ll tell me I have to stop for the motorway control lights…
