    As far as I know, the road tax that is paid on a private vehicle is valid pan India. ( if it is a one time tax)

    so, rest be assured, as long as you are in the city for less then 6 months, you can ride the bike. The tax was one time paid in full at the time of registration.

    all cheers

    Was returning from BIAL yesterday evening, at speeds of 50-55. Was stopped by a cop at an interceptor just after the first bridge.
    Bugger checked docs & let go! I know this document checking business isn't allowed now, but I didn't argue.
    They stopped another couple of bikes for no reason!!
    Strangely, they were only pulling up cars for over-speeding.

    Be aware bangalore

    Folks returning from whitefield towards sarjapur on outer ring road be careful. There is tha van checking for overspeeding. Just paid 300 for speeding in outer ring road and my speed was 63kmph. They say the limit is 50kmph and within city its 40kmph. People gave 100 bribe and left but i argued so had to give 300.

    If you go to airport thus go through the other route, not only it is shorter it is also a beautiful clean well made road other than a stretch of few kms with some good turns.

    From Hopefirm circle > Kadugodi > Hosur Road > Budigere Cross > Devanahalli > Airport.

    If you are caught with a speeding ticket, it is useless to argue better pull off 100 bucks and pay it, if you argue sometimes they will print the slip and you have to pay more.

    I was fined one day for a signal jump, was in parallel with a BMTC and thus could'nt see the signal the BMTC was crossing the road while the signal changed, soon after a cop across the street noted the number and said "confirmed signal jump" I was like WTH!, Quickly paid 50 bucks and zoomed off.

    Did you check with them whats the speed limit? 60 on the ring-road should be permissible IMO.
    I will be commuting on this stretch from this Monday. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Yes, Fine for over-speeding is 300. and the limit on the ORR strech for bikes is 50 and not 60. 60 is only in the BIAL road.

    They are usually stationed at EMC2 office in the mornings. this is the new location that i found today,after paying the fine for it.

    So 60 seems to be the limit here too. Will stick to it.

    Thanks! Fining for 63 kmph is absurd & more importantly insane. There should definitely be a small margin allowed (say upto 70kpmh). After all, road vehicles aren't as sophisticated as F1 cars to have a speed limiter (like for pit-lane speed restriction to 80kpmh) that takes control at the push of a button.

    Coming to your question of registration, check this link: Transport Department

    Apart from that, do ensure you have the original documents (Tax paid receipt, Insurance, RC Book, Emission certificate) with you.
    OOPS...point noted.
