Registered my 1000 today for daylight savings - $305 for 7 months.
My risk of accident is no less cause I don't really get out in winter anyway, but I saved myself $212.

Probably not far off an apprentices weekly wage back then.
When I registered my bike in 07 (Sep), it was around the $200 mark and slightly cheaper than a car. I guess inflation has caught up..........big time.
