motorcycle roadworthy cost victoria

In Victoria, a motorcycle roadworthy (Certificate of Roadworthiness) isn’t a fixed fee—licensed testers set their own prices. Expect to pay roughly $100–$200 for the inspection, with re-inspection fees on top if it needs a second look. Any repairs, parts, or workshop time to make it pass are extra, naturally, and can dwarf the test fee if your bike’s been living a ‘character-building’ life. Quotes vary by workshop and location, so ring a couple of Licensed Vehicle Testers and ask about re-check costs and timeframes. Once passed, the RWC is generally valid for 30 days for transfer purposes. And remember, it’s a safety check only—it proves the bike met the minimum standard on the day, not that it’s ready to lap the Island.
