customs in oz.
 
I am shipping my bike to fremantle from the UK,it is an XR600 so it does not have any indicators on it .
Will it need them to pass any inspection or are the rules the same as the UK which does not require them to be road legal?

Frank Warner 28 Feb 2006 04:01

Are you going to use it on the road? If so it needs to be road legal - blinkers, two mirrors, horn, stop light, head and tail lights ... Note while our 'roads' include may miles of dirt roads - these too are clasified as legal roads and you need to have a rigistered vehicle to use them. Unregistered vehicles can only be used on private property (or in a few rear instances with special reistration on public land).

Note this is not a customs requirement - they want 1) clean 2) any import duties that may be due (unless you have a carnet).
