Are you registering your bike?

Yet another reason for bike ACC rego thingie going up.......most of the dipshits riding bikes without earplugs will be queuing up for hearing aids in later life.

eh? what's that ya say? battery power

[crystalball]

i fucked up as went in to get 1 year rego last week. but dip shit chick said sory that will be 515 DOLLERS... i was like what the fuck i'm paying now its not july . she then went on to explain blah blah blah turns out my rego runs out 18th july so thats when they are going to charge me from. i ripped up paper at counter and said no thanks and walked out.

What we pay is far to high, its just another bloody TAX.[/QUOTE]
It is $700 freakin' million worth of sneaky back door tax- by- stealth as well, being the dividend that ACC pays the govt for last year. My take on this is that it is not recycled into the ACC funding trough to contribute to the 'full funding' rip off and reduce every-bodies' ACC levies. Hope I am wrong

[Voltaire]

Yep ..got 18 months worth......in case the cops don't see the funny side of having a bike with FUCACC on both sides of the tank.
working on getting the 40 year old r75/5 back on the road as $98.00 is a lot more palatable.

Two bikes ,register 1 and one on hold, but always WOF both. Have been pulled up for a speed infringement on the unrego'd bike. Got a fine and demerts for the speeding but cop only mentioned that the bikes rego was on and left it at that. If the bike is on hold for more than three months you can rego the bike for as long as you like ie days, weeks etc. Have rego'd the hold bike for 1 week when i wanted t use it legally for an extended trip $17 or so. Try and manage it best I can with out giving to much hard earned away.

And to clarify this a bit more, they told me that once you have waited 3 months and had your week of fun you have to wait another three montrhs before you can do it again :-( or you pay the rego backdated to that week of fun.............

Correct. Or you can change registered owner (to the wife/a mate etc) within those 3 months and do your 1 week or 1 day license then and next time change it back to you. That'll cost you $9.20 but it beats paying 2 months 26 days of backdated license fees. Do it too much and it'll end up with it having had 70 owners but who really cares about that?

[What?]

Well, that's a matter of conjecture.
We don't really know which ACC fund is using for these payments. Many of us hazarded the guess that if the form says 'motorcycle involved' that the road fund was used. But we just don't know.
The problem is that StatsNZ, MOT, ACC and others all collect and collate stats for different reasons, and it's pointless trying to compare one with another to make sense of the ACC issue.

The form says "motor vehicle". It is then up to some womble to decipher the text describing where the incident occurred and how it occurred, and figure out what class of vehicle, and whether on-road, off-road recreational, off-road commercial or whatever. So you are, of course, quite correct.

I'm not paying. Also I won't be stopping...

You forgot off-road accidental...
The claim form appears to be the start of all the bullshit as to ACC vs MOT stats for accidents/injuries.

Paid my $517.25 today for 12/07/10...I'm good to go for another 12 months.

....Bastards!!!

[duckonin]

A bit more than $1.40 per day for your rego to use your bike legally.....Hmmm.. I think I shall pay mine, not worth the hassels,...Damb blast and other wise

3 bikes = over a fiver a day to mostly have them sat in the garage. Fuckin ridiculous. bastards

I plan on sharing two registrations with three bikes (possibly more if I get more) If you have the same make and similar models it is unlikely that more than a handful of cops would know bikes well enough to recognise that the rego plates have been swapped over.

But what happens when you sell one of them ?
