    Worth noting this band is moving. Was (is) 651cc+ for the top band. Will become 751cc+.

    I've been playing the rego hold game for a long time (3x bikes 900-1200cc), so won't be able to get any gains there...

    are the people renewing and being overcharged for their rego trying to renew regos that expire after july 1?

    I'll try at the weekend... My rego has expired, so won't be an issue for me

    Worked OK for me, I pay the old rate. I expect people don't realise that your current rego must expire before 1 July.

    Thought I might sneak in a Ride Forever course before 1 July but the cash back scheme ended last year.

    First I heard about it was just now reading this thread.

    As always, we are fucked. Petitions do nothing apart from make you feel like you have contributed. A protest ride does nothing but piss off other road users and the inevitable crash simply proves the point.

    I have never liked your ACC system. I have never made a motorcycle claim in the 30 years I have been riding in NZ and there is zero acknowledgement of that. As an experienced and evidently safe rider I don't believe that I should pay more for cover than the acne riddled 18 year old down the street with his lowered doof doof GTR just because some twat got wiped out lane splitting on the Auckland motorway or some helmetless dickhead looped his unregistered dirtbike on the way home from the pub.

    My riding habits have changed recently, I no longer do a daily commute but do a relatively big trip every couple of weeks and I don't park where any wardens are going to be checking the rego label. I am starting to think I might put it on hold when it comes round to renewal time and ride it anyway.

    What's the fine for that?

    It's like they are out to get my money. I had a 675 just a tickle to big. Now I have a 765. How close to the line?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
