one small thought...

**JohnBoy** · 8th December 2004, 16:59

We all know that around this time of year money is very scarce and i am no exception. the reg and warrent ran out early last month and there is just no money left in my budget for updating it. either though i have the intention to buy a WOF reg seems another matter.
the last time i heard the fine for no reg was $200. hmmm... this got me thinking, isn't reg something like $250-260?? i know that this would caruse an issue for you all who live in the city but out here their an't no traffic wardens so me thinks i can get a way with it.

tell me is this a silly thought or am i onto something??

P.S i am aware of most insurance conditions.

If its a $200 fine, What if they catch you twice? You'll be losing there

Crash an unregistered bike and see what the insurance compancy says

**Slingshot** · 8th December 2004, 18:07

Maybe it's a question of priorities.

Full Arrow exhaust or Reg & WOF?

Was it the fact the bike was unregistered that caused the crash - Ive said it before but I wrote off an unwarranted bike and was paid out in full - unless the rules have changed or there is a difference between insurance companies.

FFS - they pay out for stupidity so how is this any different ?

The WoF that I got on Monday only cost me $20 from a bike shop, and they did it straight away, while I waited, fast too.

Get the Reg NOW! you will have to pay for it sooner or later, why bother worrying about it.

Cancel Christmas, and put all the money you save into mods for the bike.

nah go the whole each person in the family buys one gift for one other. ie 15 in the family 15 gifts, means you get less crappy or unneeded gifts at christmas and everyone saves!

and all the spare money can be for gifts like tyres and exhausts!!

I have not experienced this personally, just my cynical view on insurance companies.
I would have thought they would jump at the chance to not pay out.

Isn't it $400 for unlicenced vehicle? I doubt that the Govt wouldn't have worked that one out.

Yep it is $200 per offence so the total will be $400.

Dead right, the thing is...if you're caught you get the fine, you still have to pay up for the registration and WOF though.

So if you're caught, it'll be $400 worth of fines, plus what ever the cost of the Reg & WOF.
