He who laughs last, laughs the laughtiest.

EDIT: It would be interesting top see if there is a correlation between people who have a 'screw you' attitude to rego ... and the sort of bikes they ride.

You choose to do what you see fit mate but it seems a bit silly to broadcast it on the world wide web, these things have a habit of catching up on you.

Other reason for being a bit silly.... am I mistaken in the belief that some officers of the New Zealand Police Force are also bikers and probably frequent this forum?

Perhaps of course you are brighter than everyone and you are a hardened radical kicking against the system and you are tempting the forces of oppression to try and catch you? :shifty::shifty:

Surely if you really want to rebel you should just let your rego lapse altogether, that would show them! :msn-wink::msn-wink:

[AllanB]

In theory then if you have a motorcycle accident then you should not get 'free' medical care or any ACC payments while off work.

I'd run it that way but the spineless buggers will still cover you and just make the rest of us pay more.

[Maha]

I love anarchy.

[Mom]

Go hard!

Mine is on hold at the moment.

Just know, that the only one that is likely to "pay" for your civil disobedience is you. Calculate your personal risk of being caught out, factor in the value of any fine and decide...

Also know that there will be zero sympathy should you cop a fine.

I wonder what will happen to our rego costs should tptb do the sums about the number of unregistered bikes on the road. My guess is there are very few...

You should be fine.

[Erelyes]

6 month's licencing, $203.65.

Fine for being caught without licence - $200 (assuming they don't try to convict ya, ya can't argue your way out and assuming they don't book you for having no WOF).

Hmmmm... might work... bear in mind if you get pulled up and spin a yarn about not using it except today ossifer, they might compare the odo to what kms were at when it was put on hold.

Shine on, you badass you.

[EJK]

You can't even afford to pay the rego on a 150cc bike?

[Road kill]

I can't afford fines of any type and I need my licence so everything stay's legal if I'm using it.

But hell yeah, fuck ACC.,,,kunts:calm:

[Ocean1]

Sorta makes a mockery of putting the price up for just one group when it results in less money being paid by that target demographic, dunnit?

If they change to rules for a minority with no protection at the polls they can't really expect a that minority not to use other means to correct the balance, can they?

[Ulsterkiwi]

Letting your reg lapse altogether is not a bright idea as you have it have the bike registered as a new bike if left unregistered for a year I think and you would have to pay any back reg owing when selling it.
Its hardly a crimimal offense like you make it out to be though

I do apologise, I forgot to put the "irony" sticker on my post.

Crimimal? no, its not, neither is it criminal, but it is against the law. I do not count it a bright idea to come on an internet forum and declare you are intending to flout said law.

I would be the first to say ACC is far from perfect. However, the naivety of some in this country as to the alternatives is simply gobsmacking.:rolleyes:
ACC means
Free rehab (this can extend to tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars)
80% of your wage paid
No personal injury claims allowed by law

All for less than $35 a month!

Why do you think motor insurance is available at the rates possible?

So in the meantime, the OP is afforded the same protection and assistance as I am even though he has made a decision to "show them" at the ACC that he is a clever boy. The word "criminal" has been used in less appropriate circumstances than this.

This is of course assuming said OP is not simply an evil troll:devil2::devil2::devil2:

While rego hold isn't recommended as an ongoing practice there are a lot of motorcycles that take a winter 'holiday', and that's according to the local WOF testing station chappies. Makes sense to not be paying substantial ORCs when the said vehicle spends little time actually on the road during winter.

What is this 'winter holiday' for bikes you speak of? That's like having a penis and not taking it out for a play on a regular basis...

Oh don't worry, them Poh-leece is generous, they'll GIVE you a licence, it's called a Sue-doh Licence,

Doesn't the dole cover any of that?

[Tazz]

Cheaper for me to get pinged 3 or 4 times a year for not having rego on my Safari than to actually get it in theory. Haven't put it into practice though. Would imagine it is much the same on bigger CC bikes.

[Akzle]

not unless i have another 3 kids... Or rub shoe polish in to get 2 shades darker.
And fuck that for a laugh.

I suspect that the rego is taking a holiday more so than the bike ;)

[mashman]

People in Auckland should be paying more than anywhere else in the country given that they have more vehicles and are therefore more likely to be in a crash. Hang on, scratch that... they should be paying the second highest after those in Chch coz they have boi racers, really really bad rapist dangerous ones.

[westie]

Heres a tip... get your rego updated and get the up to date sticker. then put your bike on hold so you have the sticker but not the guff.

[Tazz]

Doesn't go on hold till your rego has expired. I had the same plan a while ago :bleh:

So how much does that save you or what's the gain???:confused:

[Tazz]

Hmm, I'll double check but I'm 99% sure the hold only comes into effect once your rego has run out. I've been wrong before though =D

[Erelyes]

Fucksakes, took 1 minute
http://www.nzta.govt.nz/vehicle/registration-licensing/exemptions.html
The exemption will take effect from when the current licence or existing exemption expires.

Good point. Put your rego on hold then your licence won't lapse. I've had a car on hold since 2005. You're supposed to do it once a year but if you get someone nice on the phone they'll make a quick edit on the system for you.
If that's the way he feels he can stick it to the man, then good on him. In the meantime, I don't mind paying my share. It's still much cheaper, faster than a car. No hang on, I moan constantly about the price of regos....

[avgas]

ACC comes from more than rego moron.

It also was supposed to remove blame. So paying for more ACC on a motorbike is a bit counterproductive.
If they can't follow that simple rule I say ditch it. Private insurance isn't that bad (speaking from experience).

[avgas]

I see Hamilton City Council has a car with a plate recognition camera they drive around and record plates in the city centre so the can analyse parking habits, how long till they use it to gather revenue?
Don't bend your plate, or if you have one with 0O get a new plate as they appear exactly the same. Also the new silver fern motif on the reflective part is annoying....

It was about $400/month last time I checked......
or do you only think ACC comes from Rego too?

Ever wonder how they ended up with $20,000,000,000 in the bank? (yes that is $20 Billion Dollars)

Your question is oddly expressed. I will work under the assumption that your meaning is "...do you think ACC only obtains its funding from Rego?"

No I do not.

The context of what you have quoted was that rego for the OP was $200ish for 6 months which is equivalent to $35 a month. As ACC levy is only part of the rego cost this means for even less than that, the OP is making a reasonable contribution to insuring against the possible costs of injury, rehab and loss of income if they suffer injury whilst riding their motorcycle. At no point did I state or claim that ACC is paid for only by the funds raised by levies on the registration fees for motor vehicles.

Before you quote someone make sure you get it right.

I am glad ACC have money in the bank, that means if I ever have need of the services I contribute to with my levy, I don't have to worry about there not being enough money to fund it. Its a pretty useless insurance company that does not have cash assets to back up the cover its supposed to be providing.

[oneofsix]

I agree with you to a point Ulstakiwi. My issue with ACC at the moment isn't paying a fee nor them having a bankroll it is the double increase the motorcyclists are having to suffer and bad maths and lies they told to do it. We had an increase in our levies and now the motor vehicle account is nearing its target everyone except us are getting a decrease. We are as much of the motor vehicle account as any one else. Tell me a group of cage drivers that put as much effort in to improving their own road safety as well. Yeah we should pay levies and our rego but only our fair share.

What if the op - or anyone who has rego on hold for the matter....is earning over $100K/year? How much is their ACC then?

What if they have 20 vehicles?

ACC is ripping you off - your are giving it all- and its hilarious to watch.
I quoted your whole statement now - just to show how naive you are.

I pay $528.41 pa for bike rego, out of that, $426.92 is for ACC levies. You can't justifiably protest (verbally) about the levies if you don't pay them ie: forever on hold.

Except for the fact that Dunedin has the highest crash rate per capita in NZ.

The OP did not give us this information so the "if" doesn't matter. If your granny had balls, she would have been your grandad.

Well I am glad that even though I am naive and being ripped off it is providing you with some amusement, totally worth it.:headbang::headbang:

IF motorcyclists stop having accidents and motorcyclists stop getting hurt than ACC wont have to charge us any levies.

Saw summit on 7 days (last week's, not yesterday's) about ACC having a 1.4bn surplus?

Off on an ACC-subsidized course today. Only costing me $50. If you want to get some of the ACC from your rego back, this is as close as you'll probably get :2thumbsup

and even then you are restricted in how often you can do it.

If you are pissed off about the surplus and what you are paying it you can at least make a submission, costs you nothing to make a submission so you lost nothing by doing it and it counts as one more submission against the lack of reduction in the motorcycle levy. Even if they take no notice and don't count them, yeah right a bureaucrat not counting submissions, it has cost you nothing.

It makes even less sense when small town NZ has a higher ownership of cars per head of population than larger NZ citys do,,including Auckland.
