ACC levy protest action

**Bald Eagle** · 14th October 2009, 17:49

All the regular ride events around all the regions become protest rides to parliament / MP's offices / through main roads, until further notice.

All multi bike traffic holds up every week.

In like Flynn bro.....damn right!

Fight for ya rights KB'ers.

Ive googled this a bit and NOWHERE in the WORLD are charges for tax/insurance/levies so godamn high, none I can find anyway!
Many countries charge LESS for a bike, as it used to be here once upon a lifetime ago

The six o'clock news stated it like it was a done deal.

I don't think we should just roll over for them without a fight.

This is plain dumb. This has been said before but why do we have to pay the ACC levy on each bike?. Its to cover me, right?. So i should just pay it once. Not 5 or 10 times. Mahhn this is a crock of shit and i have already made this a submission not that it will make any difference.

The police will have a field day with all us crims on our bikes not paying the rego revenue charge.
BS.

**Timber020** · 14th October 2009, 19:00

Doesnt our ACC fees on rego also have to cover farmer who have accidents on quads on there farms?

Why? So the rest of the motoring public can hate bikers more than they already do? Best idea I've read all evening.

Sharpen up.

I can see why you want to protest...hell, I might even join you..BUT this sort of action will not work!
What we need is a concerted effort...not lots of little splinter groups, all off doing their own little protest, pissing people off, who will have no idea what you are on about.
It will end in tears if not done properly...mark my words!
