Your motorcycle needs to be warranted, registered and insured.

Please discuss with Kohatu Motorcycle Centre if you have any concerns.

Your motorcycle, registered, warranted and insured. All usual safety gear for both warm and cold riding. Bring all the required repair gear you would usually ride with. Bring personal clothing for the end of each day's riding. Bring any personal medicines and make us aware of any required medications. All non-riding gear can be placed in the gear van during the day.
