what to do once in Canada
 

As a visitor I can temporarly bring my motorbike to Canada even without that ominous approuving sticker. But then does the vehicle have to be checked for roadworthiness or do I have to register temporarly?
Any fines/problems if the above is omitted?
Any insurances included with registration (eg 3rd person or 3rd party)?
and how about quarantine? any more than shipping the bike clean?

1. does the vehicle have to be checked for roadworthiness or do I have to register temporarly?

No.

2. Any fines/problems if the above is omitted?

No.

3. Any insurances included with registration (eg 3rd person or 3rd party)?

No.

You MUST get insurance before you arrive. There is insurance information on the Links page.

4. and how about quarantine?

None.

5. any more than shipping the bike clean?
Ship it clean.

Dear Grant
thanks for answering so quick. I tried to contact James@SunriseBorders.com to organize an insurance and the delivering failed because the adresse could not be recognised. Whom else to concact?

Try the website - it works fine, dunno why James address is:
A. different
B. doesn't work.

I finally contacted the Sunrisegroup in Florida per phone, they have a new E-Mail adresse: sunrisegroup@bellsouth.net, they could send me the applicationform and the creditcardform per e mail as an attachement (they just installed it for me) and I could fax it to them (needs signature)and got it sent to my embassy in Vancouver. Perfect! An addition: at the airport an officer of the food and agriculture departement wanted to see the motorbike first, they went there imediately, charged 46 $Can for that and after this customs was just formal. only with their allowance the warehouse can give it to you.
