What you mean is the rest of you get taken advantage of for not getting the refund. BTW, they no longer offer the course for free and at one site don't offer it at all. It was deemed ILLEGAL for all those years to run a class that competes with private industry, then due to cuts they closed a site and sold it to some of the people that worked there, cheap. Nepitism, naaaaa

Huh?

Well multiple people have said they have already received their registration at the new price of ~$61. I can't believe it costs more to register a bike than most cars.

got my registration bills the other day. $46 for my car. $65 for the bike. i'm not against an increase, but come on, motorcycle registration costing more than a car? lame.

Be careful what you complain about or they are going to bump your car registration to $130, since its got 4 wheels and your bike has 2.

Yep, some people complained years ago that there was a discount for cash somewhere compared to a credit card. So they stopped the cash discount

Cars & trucks are covered under state legislation & can't be raised as easily as motorcycles and boats which are both affected here.

Complaining is not necessarily a bad thing.. I think it is far worse to sit there and let the govt fuck you up the ass with more taxes with out having an opinion against it.

Mine was renewed before the fee jack.

I think motorcyclists should have their own lanes on roads now... that can justify for the extra cost.
