    Why are regos so expensive?

    $470per year for a 250cc bike (or something similar)

    Is there a reason?

    because all bikers are dangerous cunts with a death wish.

    Wow... actually I'd not realised they had gone up quite that much!
    Holy cow.
    I only ride bikes offroad, so have never seen the price of riding a bike on the road.
    That's almost as much as the Surf costs to register and that thing's a monster. Crikey.

    Try a 601+cc bike..... $528.63! (Which is I think about the same as a 3.0L diesel Surf, give or take a few cents)

    All those bogus excuses for increases... Ouch!

    Does this mean that all Christchurch residents should be slapped with an ACC levy because they live in a high risk area and highly likely to require treatment?

    It only has to be done once so it doesn't really matter unless you've got a deregistered bike you're trying to get back on the roads.

    I assume he means recurrent vehicle licensing, not actual vehicle registration. The use of the word 'registration' to refer to vehicle licensing is a very common mistake and has become the term that you see used most of the time, even though technically it is incorrect.

    It's no use crying over Nick and his myth as he is no longer ACC minister.

    It was never any use focusing on the minister, they are the appointed messenger, not the instigator. This is why ACC now has crusher Colins, harder personality, but she is still just the messenger for caucus/party policy. Sure we have to focus on the minister as the point of contact to take our message back but they didn't make the decision by themselves.
