Went for WOF yesterday at a On The Go and was told no longer doing motorbikes WOF's as motorbike WOF tester gone. What is the go these days do you to find a WOF inspector that has passed some motorbike WOF exam or can your local garage with WOF ticket still do motorbike WOF's ?

McLean's on Main South Road across from Springs road intersection do bikes, entrance around the back (go down next to the BP).

I think they want a rider to do it, what if they smashed it and the guy couldn't shouldn't ride? Makes sense to me they'd only do bikes if they have a rider there to do it.

Funnily enough the AVI's that are endorsed to carry out bike inspections also have motorbike license's.

They have tightened up on motorcycle inspectors - to stop VTNZ sending their guys out for a learners license so they can do bike WoF's. Now you have to have worked as a motorcycle mechanic or show enough involvement with motorcycles to show comprehensive knowledge. Grandfathered so all those guy who've just done a learners course can still issue them. but there will be less and less motorcycle testers out there.

AA Hornby, Suzuki at Main Sth roundabout both do motorbike warrants. so will all of the main testing stations. although I live at west Melton, I have the choice only of Kirwee, bike shop in Darfield, AAhornby . used to be one down Carmen Rd, but it's now a AA work shop.

Cheers for the answer and suggestions where togo - went to VTNZ Northwood after the no go Shirley On The Go. Two of the guys that worked at Shirley OTG were now at VTNZ Northwood.

It all seems bit odd to this cowboy why someone that can do car WOF's cannot do bike WOF's when there is bugger all to a bike ?
