I bet they collect a lot less over the winter with Rego On Hold that when it was less.

DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
thing is that for there to be any change, involves large groups with lots of members being on Committees and making submissions to Govt.
You may have noticed the AA get listened to, the VCC gets cheap rego for over 40 year old vehicles, and the Motor Caravan Club gets Freedom Camping.
Nearest I have see to this for motorcycles was the Bikoi of 2008....? We all rode to Wellington and made some noise outside the Beehive, also did a park up at Mission Bay.
Govt "backed" down on ACC levy ( they probably did this on purpose, make it high with some wriggle room)
Everyone went home and declared Victory.
I wonder if the Bike Dealers and distributors go into bat for their customers...... Tui Moment.
You could join the laughable MAG and park up in Ponsonby

I have all written to him. a while back now, He fobbed off to some other dude, finally got a reply saying something like, that bikers didnt pay there way, others were subsidising them, and until riders and the cost of accidents reduced, there was unlikely to be any reduction in the licence fees.
I feel its a losing battle, I justify the expense by saying my friends spend just as much or more on their fishing boats and rods etc, skiing or golf etc.
I guess I will just get over it. At least car licence fees have gone down, so overall the cars and bikes I own put together has reduced a little.
But we need to keep complaining, else it will keep going up.

this is kinda a dead argument that just does not stack up.
if you pay more than one bike licence it is because you own more than one bike, that equals choice, if you only want to pay one licence then only own one bike.
I own two road legal bikes by choice and on any given day i could ride both of them (at different times of course) if i have them both licenced then i am legal, if not then i am legal unless told otherwise.
we also have two cars and if i am riding my bike then i am not driving my car so therefore should my car also be attached to my licence, but what happens when one of the kids or a friend borrows my car.
just suck it up and be thankful that we have ACC and do not have to have private insurance and if you only want to pay one licence fee then only own one bike or run the risk on hold
Many voices in my head at once, one says why not combine your vehicle regos' to suit ownership with a bit of relief for multi owners, shit Iv'e got a family of 8 ?

Anyhoo don't forget to add to calendar 19th May, 27th July, and 31 August.
World whisky day, International whisky day, and Scotch whisky day.
I don't mind paying GST on the 1st bottle of beer, but I think the GST on the other 5 in the 6 pack should be less.![]()
