Blue Slip?

[KTM_Paul]

I'm scouring Ebay for a bike to use as a commuter and also to do the Scrapheap challenge (http://nswroadandtrackbikes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13046) there seems to be a few of the older bikes that aren't registered, what's the story with re-registering a bike that has lost rego? I understand you need to get a Blueslip? what's that normally cost? and do they just do a standard kind of Pink Slip check or is it more involved?
lastly if anyone has a 250 trail bike for sale for under $1k (hopefully with rego) let me know! :ayyy: after a DR/TT/XR/XT/KLR type bike

I got a blue slip for a CBR600RR I bought a week or two ago (unregistered), the RTA gives you a list of RTA registered blue slip providers, you go to one of them, they check out the bike for roadworthy as well as VIN and Engine numbers, you pay about $35:00 and then off to the motor registery, if the bike is unregistered you will also need a CTP greenslip. I found GIO the cheapest.
Just a word of advice, go to a car blue slip checker, a lot of bike shops will try and tell you what is wrong with it and then offer to fix it for you (at their price naturally).
The bike I bought had been unregistered for 4 months.

I got one for my bike a couple of years ago as I too bought it unrego'ed... I think it took the guy like 5 minutes to check it. Mainly brakes, lights, tire thread, etc. At least that what he seemed to be doing.:confused1: Cost me 40 or 50 bucks. After that is pink and green slips and off you go.:ayyy:

Oh cool! Thanks guys, I was thinking it was a couple a hundred! :cursing:

I'll be taking the Elsie to get a Blue slip later this week (last rego'd in Vic) so will confirm all the above (or not)... Someone did say there is a spot check if you unlucky where if your picked on, its another $450 for the privalige..... Not sure id this was reregistering write offs or any thing requiring a blue slip ????

[Pict]

You'd only be paying the $450 if the vehicle is a rep write off.

Sucks.

Got mine last week, it's a set cost around that $35 -$40 mark, can't remember exactly (as limegreen said).
GOOD LUCK in the scrapheap!!!!
