Correct me if I am wrong but you seem to be going through a rough patch Kevfromkoro!

Well if that is true I sure hope things pick up for you, sooner rather than later! Good luck. Cheers, John.

I think you still can do this for a fee. Don't register your bike at your home if possible.
And the privacy act means you can't find out who has used this service to get your information But if your bike gets nicked, I'm sure the cops can find out who has accessed this data and investigate
I think there's been a few threads covering this previously

One minor problem with this theory. In my experience, the cops won't ever investigate or even bother to take the details of a car breakin or theft. It won't matter if the Post Office had a signed and witnessed confession of what the crim wanted the info for...
Not that i am bitter or anything...

NZ Post,Land transport and police are linked and it will blackflag if stolen.
They tend to do something if its easy enough.

If so it seems well stupid, Mr Theify sees a bike he likes, gets rego, goes to post office, goes to address obtained at post office, takes bike.

Omigod! How terrible! How the the Police and NZ Post haven't thought of this beggars belief. Maybe they're all in cahoots with insurance companies. There must be thousands of bikes stolen through this obvious loophole each year. Maybe all of our bikes have been stolen, resprayed had their clocks rewound and sold to us as new? The consequences of this are too horrible to contemplate.

pffft, cos the government and police have never overlooked shit before?

[ready4whatever]

probably easier and safer to just walk down the street and see a bike you like. but im not giving tips away, id hate for mine or any other biker's bike to get stolen.
we just had a tonne of stainless steel and aluminium pipes stolen from the farm. what a piss-off. cops arent doing shit for us either

lol. You guys live in some kind of dreamland.

Anyone can go to www.carjam.co.nz from even a web capable mobile phone and get a registered name and address of any plate in seconds...

For free.

If I pay 10 bucks I can find out if you owe money on it and how many owners/k's etc its done.

Post office. pfft.

[jetboy]

Cost $3 i think,or get a vir for $25, its also possible to change someones rego address without them knowing, thank the ltsa

Funilly enough it's also possible to complete a change of ownership without the owner of the vehicle knowing!

For a $5 credit card fee you can find out the owner details.

The free information is basically the WOF,REG and ODO and plate history.

hmmm, thats a little scary, and reading thier privacy policy is more than a little unnerving.

Personal information will not be released to third parties except to further the purpose for which you provide the information, or if release is required by law or is pertinent to judicial or governmental investigations or proceedings.

No flags would be raised if a buyers report had been purchased, then the bike was stolen it would seem.

Enjoy your red muppet

Thanks! I showed you a bit of love in return.

Anyway I did have a bit of a random rant, admittedly it was from my phone so I didn't check the carjam prices again (damn single tabbed browser). I was a bit surprised that people didn't know you could get this information quickly and easily, I stand corrected on the price.
