Should be compulsory...

We're paying for it too but in different name, it's called TAC.

Essentially all the TAC money is going into the commericals they make...

So really bikes are pretty similar on rego, huh?

How's insurance? Same as cars? U25's still shafted?

Much the same as car insurance, with faster and more expensive bikes attracting higher premiums like imports and prestige. My R1 is on par with my Skyline - both have similar market values.

Third party is only around $150 though.

Yes, a lot of people go third party. Just as many opt for no insurance at all.

Running costs, maintenance and repairs, initial purchase capital, resale value, tolls - all financial advantages over cars.

Got pulled over tonight.. just licence check and breath test, the officer ended with "sorry to bother you"

Aaron, has reading this post made you angry?

Not really, that's all that really happened with me

They actually pay out crash victims quite a lot also give funding to police which is part of the reason they do so many breathe tests per year to meet the quoter set, something like that a cop was explaining to me

Really, no insurance? Seems at least third party (fire and theft) would be worth it since bikes seem so theft-able? *picks up* *loads into truck*

Especially with such good weather out, really makes me wish I had one :P.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
