Strange reason to fail a WOF

[Alive]

Was it de-registered in '86 (or not registered and left to lapse) or was it suspended? I have re-registered a lapsed rego'd bike and they stuck a new vin plate on as part of the process but if it is on hold you would be sweet as is.

Was left to lapse in 86. I wish it had been put on hold

I have re-registered an expired bike and it's not all that bad. It does cost a few bucks in fact I think it was in the region of $500 all up including rego for 12 months. They give it a warrant-on-steroids inspection and make you get an invasive brake test from the local bike shop but if the bike's been off the road for ten years you would be wanting to be sure it was safe anyway. It won't cost you anything to give the LTSA a call and get them to tell you what you need to do and what it will cost. Let us know the costs please as a lot of other members probably have an old bike in the garage that couyld do with being recirculated.

Bikes been 90% rebuilt and won't have any issues getting the WOF...

$385 to re-vin + rego I believe
