Recreation registration allows you to ride a motorcycle in defined areas without having full registration. Registration and licence requirements vary state to state which may affect your motorcycle insurance coverage. In most states in Australia, it is a requirement that the rider holds a driver’s license or permit in conjunction with a recreational registration allowing rider’s access to country roads with light traffic. We strongly suggest contacting your state authority to confirm the rules that apply to your state prior to taking out an insurance policy under recreational registration.
