Club Permits
If you own a bike at least 25 years old and are a member of a recognised Club, which we are, and your bike passes a roadworthy, then you are eligible by Victorian law to register your bike under the Club Permit Scheme.
The conditions of use for a Club Permitted bike are primarily:
- The bike may be used at any time.
- But limited to either 45 or 90 days' riding (depending on the permit).
- You must keep a log book of riding days and carry it with you.
To get your Club Permit follow these steps:
1) Bike or Car needs to be over 25 years old as per VIN and as to the month, not only year.
2) Be a financial member of the DOCV.
3) Complete details in this link: https://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/registration/limited-use-permits/club-permit-scheme/get-a-club-permit
i) obtain a Roadworthy Certificate
ii) Fill out the Club Application form and Vehicle Eligibility Forms (obtained on Vicroads website)
iii) Send RWC and 2 VicRoads forms to PO Box 16 Box Hill, 3128 with a self addressed envelope to send back.
iv) Send 3 pictures of the bike (engine number, VIN chassis, bike photo) either in the paperwork sent to the PO box or email then to clubpermit@docv.org
v) Attend a club meeting or arrange to meet the Club Permit officer if urgent.
vi) Once all forms are signed and returned, take to VicRoads who will issue Club plates (around $90/year for 45 days) and off you go. :)
Mail is only collected about every 10 days (RWC is valid for 1 month). If you are cutting it fine with dates please contact the Club Permit officer to make sure you don't run out of time with the RWC, clubpermit@docv.org
If your bike is already registered, you will need to unregister first to register as a Club Permit bike.
If the bike is an import (non compliance plate) and hasn't been registered in Australia before or is modified you may require a VASS certificate to put on Club Registration.
