So I have spent hundreds of dollars on my licences and other when I could have just referred to LAMS for weight to capacity for the grounds of a licence application. LTSA

Look it up ltsa.govt.nz

Not really. You still have to pay and sit all the tests. It just allows you to skip a couple of bike purchases and buy something suitable.

A few threads on this in the newbies forum I believe.

A few exceptions to the rule... I wonder if some of the more recent 250cc are quite powerful?
Generally, I still wouldn't recommend a learner getting a 1200 or Harley until well experienced..
