Yes, bloody expensive to register a bike here, but if you are only here for a short time you can go into the post office or AA and fill in the form there. Most people only notice the two tick boxes saying "6 Months" and "12 Months" but there is another box where you can write in how many months you want. So you can just pay for 1 month if you want. There's a transaction fee of about $14 no matter how many months you pay for but 1/12th of a year plus the fee is a lot cheaper if you are only in NZ for a month or two.
WOF (Warrant Of Fitness safety inspection) usually costs about NZ$35.
Cheers
Nigel in NZ
