Licensing

To ride our motorcycles, you must:
• Be 25 years old or older.
• Be actively riding.
• Have a minimum of 2 years constant riding experience.
• Have a minimum of a “Restricted or Provisional Licence”. We are unable to cater for Learner Licence holders, sorry.

In most cases we will accept your local licence from the country of issue, but we must be able to clearly identify your licence type.  If there is any doubt, please send us a copy of both sides of your licence or obtain an “International Driver’s Licence”.

Before obtaining an International Driver’s Licence you want to consider having your licence translated by contacting the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA). Please follow this link.

New Zealand Road Rules are similar to that of other countries such as Australia and the United Kingdom and we drive on the left side of the road.

A full copy of NZ road rules can be found at Motorcycle Road Code

In NZ, we also have one lane bridges in remote areas. Traffic from the direction of the RED ARROW gives way. However, if you are travelling from the direction of the black arrow you should proceed with caution.
