JoKer Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/facts ... icles.html sooo bet a dollar this has been covered I DID not search the avenger I class as a ATV (checks all the boxes) is there a proper reason WHY I justy cant ring up and apply for an ATV rego, my work IS less than 3 km and I can walk in under 10 mins... 1.1km on google maps will there be a draw back when I try and enter rallies? etc? or am I being dumb < Monique now thinks I am indeed dumb!

JoKer Posted May 15, 2011 Author Share Posted May 15, 2011 Last time I rang NZTA lady wanted me to take car to get re-classed as atv not a passenge vehicle (ie which its not) edit AND original rego IS still on hold..

Truenotch Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I run class A on my AW for cheapness but it won't stand up in a court of law... Unless you can get someone to put WOF's on it and fly under the radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Pretty much if you have an accident with it on A class no insurance companys are going to touch anything. And you will probably get in more trouble. And I mean if you write off a jag / power pole (they are expensive) especially if their insurance won't pay cos your car is not legal. Get on ya bike.

keltik Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Just drive as is. More likely to get let off if caught than if you blatantly bend/break rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 atv requires sub 500kg, A reg with a wof incures wrong class ticket at $200 if you ever get pulled up, if car looks legit you'll be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowzer Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 atv requires sub 500kg, They have three or more wheels, an engine capacity exceeding 50 ml and a gross weight of less than 1,000 kilograms*. They're also known as farm bikes, three-wheelers or four-wheelers. 1,000kg is fucking heavy for an ATV, but that's what the website says Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
