It's looking pretty short so far. My guess is it will stay that way lol.

"Wow, Great advise there DB."

I just sent this:
Dear Dr Smith
I thought I would let you know that the proposed ACC levy increases for motorcycle registration are outrageous.
The likely response to this from motorcyclists will be similar to protests that have occurred in Europe i.e. We will not register our vehicles.
Regards
This is disgusting.
I can see however what has already been posted... them backing down on the tripling of rego for large capacity and instead "only" doubling it.
We're fucked either way.
Wankers.
Fuck I can't even verbalise my fucken fury. Riding a bike becomes no longer econnomical, so every bastard trys to sell their bike and can't because the market is flooded and it costs too much to register the fucken things. So I'll just have to buy a car and let the bike sit there un-registered. But I'll still take it for weekend fangs. And I'll bail if some porky cunt tries to pull me over too. Like to see a Holden catch the my TL....Mr smith need's a fucken reality check, or he's gonna end up on the receiving end of an angry mob bearing baseball bats...
Constantly consuming, conquer and devour.
Most bikes burn fewer fossil fuels than even a hybrid car or the most economical diesels, we don't contribute to congestion as much as even the smallest car and we don't damage the roads as much as any car. WTF?
Just to give an alternative view on this...
At a public meeting about night class cuts, Darien Fenton (MP & against the cuts) stressed that if you're going to write, hand write the letter in your own words. If all submissions are the same, they get lumped together and counted as one, having far less impact.
But I suspect the time for writing indignant letters has passed and that for annoying the fuck out of people has started.
It is a point though, some faceless bureaucrat somewhere has looked at the claims for bikes and decided it would be a good idea if they charged more for bigger bikes, bigger equals faster equals more accidents equals more ACC payouts obviously. I wonder if they've even looked at the stats before apportioning blame. I don't have anything to back this up because I'm not privy to gubermint stats but logic would dictate that more inexperienced riders on smaller capacity machines would do more of the falling off and therefore make more of the claims wouldn't it?
Not that I'm proposing heavier levies for riders of small bikes,in fact I'm not proposing any increases at all they are, just pointing out that the whole capacity thing is bollocks in so many ways.
Just a minor point, my major point is Fuck them and the blind horse they road in on I'm in for any protest south of Auckland and I shall be riding in on what must be one of the most dangerous bikes available, 1400 ccs and a whopping 106 bhp! Bastards.
Oh bugger
Wow. So my 37hp bike is going to cost nearly $1000 to reg for a year...
I was wondering what to spend all that spare cash on.

I very much doubt that our family can afford to register one bike, let alone two if this happens
I am all for protest..we need to make it big, extremely well organised with maximum impact and exposure...then we need to keep the momentum going.
I doubt that small regional protests will do anything..we just don't have the numbers in the provinces to make a statement!
Do it like the truckies did....mighty impressive and got the public on side too!
