    Dunno, but try asking your local bike shop what the process is, they must do it all the time.
    The views expressed above may not match yours - But that's the reason my Dad went to war - wasn't it?
    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, .... but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out,... shouting "man, what a ride"!!!

    I Put my old GPZ400 on the road last year and had to get it all vined etc

    1 your need a letter or somthing to say you brought the bike.

    2 take it to get vined (lots of places but not all will do bikes cost vaires so shop around)
    cost me $300.00 includes WOF
    its a basic check over and make sure its safe (nothing to major)


    3 Then you take your papers to VTNZ or post office and they will give you a plate and a rego sticker (minimum is six months rego) about $180.00

    4 Go for a good LONG ride.


    It wasnt as bad as I expected
    cost was a bit more than I bugeted for,
    But bugets are to be broken.

    It was all in the aid of making my Cold kiwi bike ready.

    Cheers

    take it to your local dealer and ask them to do the process for you...be quicker than you doing it...or they will at least be able to help you where to start...

    Unless it's a dirt based Honda.
    It seems that it's very difficult to reg a Honda dirt bike now eg. for Enduros as Honda say "It was not made for the road".
    They are shooting themselves in the foot with that attitude esp. with people looking for bikes for the ISDE.

    My bother is looking into options for a bike for the ISDE and it finally came down to a 2006 RM125 or a Husky 125.
    The RM would the rear wheel changed from 19" to 18" re-doing the MX suspension and road kitting/reg and the Husky would need... well nothing really.
