And we think we are hard done by!

[Corse1]

Well we are really but here is what a biker in Canada emailed me yesterday.

"Kinda like our provincial neighbor, Quebec. Only problem is there they have publically declared war against motorcycles. If you own a sportbike you`ve seen the registration rates go from $250/plate/year about 5 years ago to over $1000 and projected to go to $1600!! LOTS of big sportbikes for sale in Quebec! And that`s for basic insurance. If you want full coverage it`s way more!"

The insurance he is talking about is the medical that equates to our ACC. Wonder what happens if you have an accident with no registration. Do the Ambo's just leave you on the side of the road
I wonder how hard it is to import from Quebec....

I was moaning about paying $1,000 a year to register the bike and Pajero,and my nephew in Canada wondered what I was moaning about - it costs him $1600 a year for his pickup.

And when people listen to Katman and his "I'm to blame, lets make ACC an insurance scheme with all the benefits", this is what happens!

It's a new sport called 'Let's put words in Katman's mouth'.

(Actually, come to think of it, it's not even new).

Is English your second language?

Surely not...and if it were?
All I have heared in the last few months from Katman and his apologists is
"it's all our own fault"
"We all fall off far too much"
"Let's accept the shafting that the government and ACC have handed us".
Bullshit.
This is the very premise from which ACC will dissolve into an insurance scheme/scam. It's exactly the same argument that Smith and Judge have put forward to push the imminent privatization of ACC.
It's been weeks since the "new approach" proposed by Katman first appeared, and what? Hot, hot air. Not one concrete proposal acted on. Hot air, just noise.
You know, empty, loud, worthless noise.
None of which benefits bikers one bit.

It's been weeks since you joined perhaps, Katman has been saying the same shit for hmmm the 3 odd years i been here ! Funny thing is, it appears to be panning out like he said it would !
Not that i care ! I'm a hedonist, but i do detest half wit attacks on ppl with slanderous remarks !
Apologists hahaha is that a word ? So it is : one of the authors of the early Christian apologies in defense of the faith.

Been here years sunshine.
Apologists, yep, that's a word alright, Plural of apologist.
Maybe an education would be useful if you intend to engage in argument.
Hot fucking air, hot fucking air....
