And what's this shit about insurance?

You don't worry about that sort of nonsense until your middle aged and so riddled with lifes insecurities that you try to cacoon yourself in a padded room of insurances, family trusts, policies and all that other senseless bullshit.

To incorrectly quote a quote: "The present time is the only thing you'll ever own, not the past or the future."

insurance is about taking responsibility, if I make a mistake and damage someone elses pride n' joy, the money I pay for insurance covers the cost, I would like to be able to expect the return is true, but knowning there are those who chose not to carry insurance, I do, that means if someone else causes damage to my pride n' joy, I don't have to front up with the money to sort it out, having dealt with a few of these things over the years, I see it has good sense, and I have had insurnace since I was a teenager...

If I happen to make a mistake and prang someone elses vehicle I will pay for the damage. It is as simple as that.

No I could quite easily get personal insurance and no I've never been done for DIC, both of my businesses are insured to the hilt because it is practical and we can rape the insurance companies. Just yesterday one of my guys dinged one of the trucks, needs new LHS lights and passenger door.

As I mentioned in my previous post, which was mostly in jest mind you, insurance has an application in a business sense because a business is generally it's own entity and likely to have employees.

When I'm on the road, it's just me and I can take responsibility for my actions.

Anyway - enough bantering, jimjim you obivously have your own opinion and that's great, but in reality I don't give a shit because I'll never choose to associate with you on any level. I think that I've put my point across and I think all you've done is attack it from multiple angles without making much of a point.

How I live works for me, perhaps in time it will change as my needs and wants change. How you live is fine by me too - but I've still got my opinions.

Are there "day-only" wof's and rego's in nz. In the UK you can get a wof and rego for your race bike, all it needs is a brake light and horn (I think) - no headlight or indicators required. With a day wof and rego you can ride your bike from half hour after sunrise to half hour before sunset.

These would be good here. It woukd mean you could ride your race bike or motocrosser to the track instead of having to trailer it, and would let you go up the street, etc on it.

They have the same thing in Aussie for bikes over a certain age called a classic licence.

Can insure for road use as well with oneof these regos.

this would be a good idea, except i don't think the government would be bothered getting it up and running.

but still that would be awsome to be able to legalise your race bike for a day and do what you want with it.

why cant it be road legal any way, and you still race it if its not in good enough condition to ride on the road legally it probably shoudnt be on the track

Most of the cars on NZ's roads are old shit heaps, the chances of SEEING a new merc let alone T-Boning one (or ANY car for that matter) are pretty slim.

I've a 'shitty old Thunderbird' - T-bone THAT and you will be eating your next six months worth of meals through a drinking straw if you're uninsured........

And oh, should somebody persistently ride like a dick on noisy bike without consideration to others they might just find a shitload of dishwashing dtergent on the road .....I know of such people near here who would do this.

[NordieBoy]

just something really funny after he told me off, me and a mate thought it would be fun to tow each other on a wooden gokart behind a scooter (not fast probably 20k-25k),

my mate on the scooter was going to fast into the corner (no brakes on gokart) ,the gokart started to fishtale and i couldn't get it back in control and came off getting some nice gravel rash and straching my new fulface helmet. that made me more mad at the guy even though it wasn't his fault.

Roller blades behind a 125cc scooter is fun too

Vibrates worse than a thumper without a counterbalancer.

[crshbndct]

there are a lot of shitt cars on the road...

but there are also a lot of shiny new commodores and falcons etc.

a small ding costs $1000 to fix because panel beaters go bananas when there is a insurance job being done (their insurance not yours)

Damn. Never realised I was middle-aged already. I just cry quietly when I see payments for bike insurance, car insurance, health insurance, life insurance and income protection insurance go out my account every month.

You might call it senseless bullshit, but in the event of an accident, I want to know that I can either get my shit fixed and back on the road pronto without having to worry about getting the money of some uninsured scrote or - should I not be around any longer - that my nearest and dearest don't suffer as a result.

It's not that I'm insecure - it's because I like a relatively peaceful life. Insurance is one thing that can help.

like yungatart said it is stripped down to buggery it doesn't use a battery or anything no lights nada. very hard to make road legal. it has the essentuals on so it doesn't fall apart and do you really think i would race a bike that i don't think is fit to be ridden?

[JimO]

then he has no right to be on the road with it, if he was riding about on a mini chopper you would all be calling for his blood because he is givving motorcyclists a bad name
