Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 30 October 2026

These terms explain how you may use RiderMates at ridermates.com, including our motorcycle guides, comparisons, dealer directory and tools. Please read them together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

About RiderMates

RiderMates provides motorcycle information to help you research your next ride. Unless a page expressly states otherwise, we are not the seller, dealer, lender, insurer or organiser of a listed ride. Any purchase, finance, insurance, test ride or event arrangement is made with the relevant provider on their own terms.

Prices, specifications and availability

Prices, colours, specifications, equipment, availability and dealer information can change. Images may show overseas models, optional equipment or illustrative photography. Prices are indicative and may exclude registration, licensing, delivery, freight, accessories or other charges unless stated. Confirm the exact model, colour, full ride-away price and terms directly with the dealer before making a decision.

Calculators and editorial content

Calculators provide estimates based on the information entered and the assumptions shown. They are not quotations or personalised financial, insurance or professional advice. Reviews and comparisons reflect editorial opinions and available information at publication. Consider your experience, licence conditions and circumstances, and obtain appropriate advice where needed.

Enquiries and third-party services

Submitting a request records an enquiry for follow-up. It does not confirm a booking, subscription, payment, loan, insurance cover or purchase. A provider must confirm any arrangement with you separately. External links, maps and dealer listings are provided for convenience; inclusion is not a guarantee or endorsement of a provider or their services.

Responsible use

Use the website lawfully. Do not submit false or misleading information, impersonate someone, infringe another person’s rights, upload harmful content, send spam, interfere with the website or attempt unauthorised access. Only send personal information you are entitled to provide. Do not include payment card details, identity documents or other sensitive information in general enquiries.

Reviews and other submissions

If you submit content for publication, it must be your own or used with permission, relevant and accurate to the best of your knowledge. We may review, edit for clarity or remove submissions that are misleading, abusive, unlawful or unrelated. A private enquiry is not permission to publish your contact details. Contact us if you believe published content infringes your rights.

Intellectual property

RiderMates content, branding and design, and third-party trademarks and images, remain the property of their respective owners. You may use the site for personal research and link to our pages. Do not reproduce or commercially redistribute protected content without the relevant rights holder’s permission, except as permitted by law.

Availability and liability

We aim to keep the site useful and accurate, but cannot promise that every page will always be complete, current, uninterrupted or error-free. To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for losses caused by reliance on indicative information or by a third-party provider. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded, including applicable rights under New Zealand consumer law.

Changes, questions and corrections

We may update these terms as the website develops. The date above identifies this version. New Zealand law applies, subject to any mandatory rights that apply where you live. For questions, corrections or concerns, contact RiderMates.
