Anybody know if there are any particular problems buying a bike in Australia for a 6 week trip ?
Plan to buy one in Perth and eventually end up in Melbourne and get friends to sell it.
Government website says overseas visitors can buy vehicles (which I did years ago when working there) but also seems to say to register them you need an address.
Some sites say use a hotel address and some a friends, both are options.
Is there a "foolproof" option as I don't want to buy a bike before I get there only to find I can't register it and have to try to hire a car instead.
