[QUOTE="Albervin, post: 17049, member: 586"] Being a naive type I would assume that if buying a bike outside your country then it is registered/taxed in that country. It would thus seem to make sense to insure it in that country, irrespective of where you are riding it. Of course being in Australia things may be different but if I was buying a bike in New Zealand I would fully expect to organise the insurance there then insure it at home once the paperwork is fixed up. Reminds me of when I was in Liechtenstein many years ago & an American lady on a bus tour wanted to buy a sheet (100) of stamps. The post office clerk said there was a post box outside but the American lady said she was going to write the cards that night & post them in the morning.................in Switzerland!! [/QUOTE]
