In New South Wales, if your motorcycle or scooter is more than five years old, you cannot renew your registration without an official TfNSW eSafety inspection—more commonly known as a motorbike pink slip.
At Cityside Motorcycles and Scooters in Rozelle, we know that your time is valuable. You don’t want to leave your bike sitting at a workshop all day just for a quick registration check. That is why we have streamlined our process to get your safety check completed, lodged digitally with Service NSW instantly, and get you straight back out on the road.
Whether you need a standalone inspection for your daily commuter or want to save time by ticking off your annual maintenance simultaneously, we are your trusted local choice for a fast, honest motorcycle pink slip.
📌 Important Workshop Note: Please note that to meet strict Transport for NSW compliance regulations, all pink slip inspections must be carried out physically within our fully equipped Rozelle workshop. We cannot perform mobile or roadside safety inspections.
When it comes to motorcycle safety checks, compliance shouldn’t come with hidden surprises. The standard motorbike pink slip cost is a regulation fee set by Transport for NSW across all Authorised Inspection Stations (AIS).
Current NSW Regulation Rate: $28.00 (Includes GST)
We don’t add hidden administrative fees or unneeded workshop extras. If your bike or petrol scooter is safe and roadworthy, you pay the statutory rate, and your digital certificate is sent straight to the Service NSW database within minutes of passing.
Nobody wants the hassle of a failure note. Before you bring your ride into our Victoria Road workshop for your motorcycle pink slip, it pays to know what the inspection covers. Drew uses his decades of mechanical experience to run through the official Transport for NSW safety checklist.
Please note that we perform these statutory roadworthy inspections for all motorcycles, motorbikes, and non-electric (petrol) scooters. The inspection focuses heavily on:
Why make two separate trips to the workshop? If your bike or scooter is already due for its regular logbook maintenance or an oil change, the smartest move is to bundle them together.
As highlighted in our featured guide, Pink Slip Made Easy: Combine Your Motorcycle Service and Safety Check in Sydney’s Rozelle, combining these two tasks keeps your logbook stamped, your factory warranty intact, and your registration fully legal in one single, hassle-free appointment.
While the actual inspection must take place inside our workshop hoists, you don’t have to lose any of your free time managing the logistics. If you book your pink slip alongside a motorcycle or scooter service, you can take full advantage of our Free Pickup & Delivery Concierge Service.
⚠️ Please Note: Our pickup and delivery vehicle service is exclusively included when you combine your motorbike pink slip with a scheduled maintenance or repair service. If you only require a standalone pink slip inspection, a towing fee will be applicable to cover transport logistics.
If you live or work in the Inner West (including Balmain, Pyrmont, Lilyfield, Leichhardt, Redfern, Marrickville, St Peters, Newtown, etc.), the CBD, the Eastern Suburbs, or across the bridge in North Sydney and Cremorne, we’ve got you covered. We also regularly collect bikes and scooters further out, stretching down through Campsie, Earlwood, Canterbury, and the surrounding areas near our home base. Let us know where you live or work and we will do our absolute best to accommodate you.
Our dedicated collection vehicle will securely transport your machine from your home or office straight to our Rozelle workshop, where we will complete your service and pink slip motorbike inspection together, before returning your ride right back to your door the very same day.
Avoid the unregistered vehicle fines and keep your ride entirely legal on Sydney roads. Our Authorised Inspection Station at 168 Victoria Rd, Rozelle keeps priority slots open specifically for local riders needing a fast turnaround.
Bookings are essential to keep our turnaround times fast.
Instant Digital Renewal: The second your ride passes, we lodge it online so you can instantly pay your green slip (CTP) and renew your rego via the Service NSW app.
With over 20 years of experience, we offer dependable motorcycle and scooter servicing at your doorstep, ensuring your vehicle is maintained to the highest standards.

If you’ve got a motorbike or scooter would recommend Cityside for all your needs. Drew gave me a good price on tyres and also did a courtesy check up to make sure the bike was good and safe. Will definitely back later in the year when it’s time to get the bike serviced. Thanks again!Posted on Google![]()
