in reply to: Unregistered cars to attract demerit points #15006

Have a look over on the Kiwibiker forum. This has stirred up a storm.The only issue I have with it is that there are no points for a red light offence, or for not wearing your seatbelt. Now, THOSE are things that deserve demerits, not fund raising things like the Acc levy.Just my thoughts.

yeah but people who dont have current licence label a lot of the time are the halfwits that should not be on the road. This is another wayto skin a cat and get rid of themm off the road. How many halfwits appear in Court with $27000 of fines for no regno and no wof. This way they will be appearing for driving whilst disqualified and driving whilst suspended. No fines for that. After a couple of offences Community work (they hate losingthere time) or a few more offences off to the big house to become someones boyfriend. 😮PS regno is a croak. I have a car and bike , i cant drive/ride both at once so it should be the person not the vehicle who has the regno cost. user pays. yeah right, tui adhttp://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/roadcode/about-driver-responsibility/stepping-over-the-line.html

That’s got to be a great private road I hope it’s sealed 4000rpm is 100 km/h on my GS1000PD so 8000 RPM = 200Km/h Maybe I have bought a hell of a lot more bike than I expected ! Other possible options I have a different gear ratio or you have a slipping clutch

watching the road signs is a very wise comment. Only thing I do is convert them from kmh to mph. 😮

in reply to: 1991 R100RS head shake at 70-85 km/h on certain roads #14596

I rode a 750cc once only once, first time took bike out with head instructor. I think the thought I had bad attitude. After they saw how good I was on it they always gave me a new BMW. Was it not the Hondas that were the bucking bronco circus animals. At the time I had brought a brand spanking new R100RS back from my OE. (bike is still around. numberplate is 88RRS nd some one put a R100RT fairing on it. should be castrated) Bought it at Parkland BMW darrrrrrrrrrrrrrling, taxfree after I had done a quick lap of europe on a 77 R100RS

In 1995 I got given a new K1100TIC and it used to shake its head at about 185kmh and then be alright up to 225kmh. I just ignored it. 3TKC was the plate number
