We could make them pay?

[Mumbles]

Just thinking, don’t know if it will work....
But if I'm going to pay $750 odd dollars a year to ride my bike then I think out of I might just keep going into the post office and putting my rego on hold for a week (claim 6 months) and then put it back on... a few weeks later do the same again....
I figure NZ post is going to charge someone to keep records up to date, it’s going to piss them off and cause unnecessary extra work for someone…. But I’ll get a few more months extra ahy?...
Could it work….. anyone got any ideas?

putting it back on early costs doesnt it

It must remain on hold for a minimum of 3 months or you pay right through.

So I put it on hold and hope I dont get pulled up for 3 months take it off for one month put it on hold again....

And to really rot your socks all the figures being bandied about are the ACC levies only, not the total rego cost - so figure on a big road bike closer to $900+

Put the rego on hold, take your chances. If you don't get pulled over and fined for no rego over a years riding then you saved $800.

Yep - I reckon it to be $875 for a big bike based on the current rego cost without the ACC levy.

I have two bikes so it will cost me $1751 per year.... and I can only ride one bike at a time.
