Learner license online

[aaron01]

Hi guys/gals, first post so be gentle.
tomorrow I will be going in to book my learners at long last. Can anyone point me in the right direction online for motorcycle roadcode. currently have full car license, does that make it a shorter test? Does the handling skills test I sat back in Feburay expire?
Thanks in advance

Aaron

Bsh does not expire tho they may say it does - if they say it does ask them to show you in Drivers licence regs,
Learners is just a scratchy
No having car licence full or otherwise makes no diff

If you havent learnt rode code by now and test tomorrow you may have left it a bit late only allowed 2 wrong

[aaron01]

not doing the test tomorrow, only booking it.
thanks for the info

Well I went in this morning to book my learners, How things have changed in the last 16 years since I sat my car learners. I didn't realise they now do it on the spot. Anyway passed with 3 wrong. Not bad considering I only started looking at it last night

the shitty thing about this all is that wellington is absolutely crap today for my first legal ride

Na haven't checked them and don't plan to, The bike cost me $500 had to put a rear tyre on for a warrant. I must put a pic in my sig and when I do you will understand why I don't want to spend money on it.

Yeah, the effin' wind was howling on the way to work. And I've only got 2km's to cover. Welcome to KB and enjoy your new toy!

I sold mine for $600 because of that very reason - it was about to shit itself. listen to the engine, does it rattle loudly?

insanity_rules now owns my vtz, he cleaned the oil journals that transport oil onto the to of the cam chains (they get blocked) and later on replaced the cam chain just to be safe ($300 for the chain).

alot cheaper than the $2,700 i was quoted and alot cheaper than crashing as a result of the problem.

Bloody hell - $500 for a VT250 - you could prolly pop it on tardme for $3000 today! Them V-twin engines are nice.

Dealers are selling pieces of shit 250 for silly prices up here coz of supply and demand - a used bike which is really worth $1,500 will get sold for $5,000 and will still need $2000 spent on it to keep it on the road for the next year.

Yep we are talking rusty bolts, dents and shit aftermarket paint jobs and still asking top dollar.

Well the fairing is held on with a few selftapers and a roll of black race tape to match the spray job.
yeah I dont believe how much people are asking for 18 year old bikes, just happened to be in the right place at the right time
