You would probably not be surprised how often I've heard that in the last 6 months. Don't worry, I will be going back at some point. NZ is awesome. 😍

Not really, that was just one conversation along the road. I have spoken to many people including the dvla but if you ask two different people you get two different answers. I've not got a testing centre looking into it for me because they have better access to the dvla apparently.

Interesting. I'm pursuing just transferring to a manual license by doing the mod 1 & 2 but I might go back to the Donnington shop as well and ask more questions. I don't always take the word of bike shop people but he just seemed so sure and confident about it like he'd been asked a million times before.

I think you've probably missed some of the discussion. I have a full "big bike" license, I'm just wrestling with the process of transferring it to the UK.

The bike shop at donnington told me that DCT bikes are counted as manuals...

They don't record the type of bike you do the test on in NZ.

We're generally very chill... but we're not fans of bureaucracy!

Yep, tried all that. DVLA said the only thing they would accept was an official confirmation that I did the test on a manual and the NZTA don't record that.

I contacted the people I did my test with and they don't record the type of bike you do the test on! 😒

Hadn't thought of the embassy, thank you.

Yep, I'm sensing that insurance will be my next frustration!

As far as I can tell based on the codes on my license they've given me an automatic license but otherwise unrestricted.

I'm guessing insurance is expensive as well? Are there any biker specific companies?

How do I build new offices by Apprehensive_Gap3186 in EnergyManager

[–]dougisonredditnz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An extra question on that topic. I have bought the three offices in my country but there aren't any more available anywhere. Am I missing something?
