    Certification required to register motorcycle?

    Not sure if OP has insurance. If so he could have plates, but with temp permit. Instead of an actual sticker. So that he can take said bike to a mechanic. But those are valid for 14 days I think.

    Certification required to register motorcycle?

    Its not required to be registered, as it'll be classed as "un-fit" You'd have to get a saftey inspection certificate, get it changed to fit, before you can get it plates I believe. As this is what the lady at the ministry office told me, when I bought my most recent bike.
