    Rego on hold

    I,m keen to put my rego on hold when it runs out rather than fork out 500+ bucks for re reg.
    How do you do this? Post Office, or AA??
    Whats the penalty if the cops catch ya riding after this?
    Do they confiscate the bike roadside + fine? demeritts incurred?
    $528 for 1 yr reg
    $426 of this is acc.. WTF!!
    I,m between jobs at the minute, so if i crash i can,t even claim acc.

    Yep, no worries there.
    My main concern was whether i would have to do a runner or not.. Just to try and keep my bike.
    I,m not keen on putting joe public in harms way tho. So will just pull over and take it if need be.

    Its a $200 fine. No roadside confiscation, just a ticket. Cops less trouble than meter maids.

    I haven't bothered with licensing my bike since they put the fees up. Never been an issue, even been through check points and let off.

    You are still fully covered by ACC and insurance. Keep WOF up-to-date.

    You may want to check with your insurance company. They may have a clause stating it must be registered (there will be one stating it must be warranted).

    Just in case there is a technicality for them to grasp at.

    Be a bloody waste of $200 if you get caught!

    I wonder what would happen if every rider said F-it I'm not paying rego. Probably just earn the Govt. more in fines as there would be a blitz on bikes.

    Ditto. I've had enough. I'm not going to pay any fine either. They can ram it up their bum.

    Mines on hold as well, for me its a principal thing, its a rip off and unfair that my pass time has been singled out and taxed when everyone elses hasnt, its not on !!

    My insurance Company Kiwibike insurance tells me I dont need rego for insurance just a warrant, and even then if the non warrantable aspect wasnt the reason for the accident then I dont need that either.
    Ive run out of fucks to give
