Mmmm, might try rego my 400 as a 250 when it comes to selling it. Might make some money from it

I would guess that this is fine. Until you have an accident - or get pulled over by an officer who knows anything about bikes - from there it will go downhill fast.

It always amazes me how many people are out there willing to gamble with their safety - so Im sure some 18yo who is all balls will buy it thinking that they are being really clever.

You will probably end up reading about them in a "biker down" thread.

Leaving the numberplate in the photo can't be a good idea :oi-grr:

dont think in that case it will matter whether that 18y.o buys a 250 or 600...

I just love the way that some twats assume that the forces of legal compliance don't know about TradeMe. I imagine that said entrepreneur will be busted by bedtime.

it was certified as a 250cc by vtnz

Who is going to ask for him to post up a copy of the VTNZ certificate?

But according to his logic, you could register an 18 wheel truck as a moped and thus not need a heavy trade license.
