MAG NZ Taking Action

[Swoop]

Is there a better way of making the point rather than park ups and the like?

Yup.

when it comes to speed=risk=damage.

Good to see that you are following the propaganda about "speed kills".

[RGVforme]

i didnt say that at all. Jackass. You extrapolate like bogan.

Name calling aside you do understand the concept of a question mark don't you???.It is sometimes used at the end of a sentence when asking if this is what someone ment.I checked back and I had used one.

At the risk of being subjected to more get fuckery that seems to be rife on this site I remain curious.

Ill dumb it down a bit for you......What did you mean?......

[RGVforme]

Yup.

Do let us all know how that works out for you.

So if yes is your answer to the better way of making the point question then what is it?.Or have I missed that part?.

Please feel free to join the others on here that have pulled their fingers out of their bums stuck to the topic and voiced their ideas in the hope we might collectively as a group come up with one that may just work or at the least point out to the current protesters and ACC why their way perhaps simply is not.

You never know who's reading this forum do you.

There are some good points so far.

Isn't that the reason why we are here? (Well apart from the trolls with hard on's for name calling that is ).....

quite simply. I meant what i said. (funny that)

speed≠risk≠damage

jackass.

Oh dear im afraid you lost me on that one.Nevermind......

Except for some this is a way of life not a hobby.
Realistically the reduction in key metrics would mean ACC were jumping for joy not pissed about this change.
Realistic result would be another hike they would blame on reduction in revenue.

Two good reasons why a blanket rego on hold for 12 months protest would not work.
This and every biker who took a ride would get pulled over to be checked once the word got out.Leading to fines and a very big piss off for us getting stopped all the time.

The faster you go ... the bigger (risk of) a mess ...

WRONG!

The faster you HIT, yes. Going faster does not increase the risk of a mess without the hit. Going faster does not increase the risk of a hit if you're still riding to the conditions.

Now were getting somewhere.

The key point here is "Riding to the conditions".

People not riding to the conditions/wearing the right gear(The village idiot) was part of my complete post that this tiny piece... 'speed=risk=damage'.... was drawn out by some womble then reposted all alone by itself.
Placed back into its correct context it starts to make sense I think.

You can go 200kms in a dead line on an empty closed road and be fine.
Try and do it tipping it into a 80km wet corner OR the middle of town in rush hour and hello smash time.

I tip my hat to you there SW.My hope in finding intelligent life on planet KB is restored

[Big Dog]

But how would they go about a hike if no one paid untiil the charges were made fairer? Such a protest would possibly
work in another country though as a lot of Kiwis just accept bull shit with the latest example of an increase and not a dropping
of Emissions Taxes.

Derp.
Do you not see? ACC as an organisation would benefit more than we would from hanging up the helmet for a year.

None so blind as those who will not see.

The Police use " The faster you go the bigger the mess" as a simple message that the majority can understand.

AS for ACC and all being lumped in to the same two boxes, under 600cc and over 600cc..... I think the message there is we no longer wish to have motorcycles on the road.

isn't that the approach they take with Cigarettes and alcohol, raise the tax to change the habits?

Time for a real concerning issue: Coffee, is it really worth $4.50 a cup?, can you really pay off you mortgage years earlier by not drinking it?, are non coffee drinkers debt free?

[bogan]

are non coffee drinkers debt free?

nope

The more G forces you experiance, the Bigger the Mess.

We need G-force enforcement.

Someone told me that ACC gained less income the year after the changes to rego charges.

Haven't checked to see if that's the case but there's certainly a point in market pricing where people simply stop paying. And if the service is as tenuously linked to prices as is the case here, (and as has been demonstrated in some cases the cost/price relationship is actually inverse) then most will see no problem at all in continuing to ride their motorcycles.

And in reality if 100% of riders simply stopped paying there's no way they'd continue fining them, they'd recognise that civil disobedience at that level means they'd simply got the policy wrong.

Given the round and round the mulberry bush this topic gets, I'm going to be completely off topic and say to "g-force enforcement " : yes! I want to see guinea pigs out road side with super powers to avoid becoming roadkill while being able to halt all riders out g-ing themselves on 2 wheels https://www.google.co.nz/search?q=g+...dtpOgk4xjKM%3A
