No address for papers? UK
This may be the solution.
I have yet to research this option fully, but from what I have found so far, it sounds like the go. I don't have friends/family in the UK to use for a postal address for the tax and insurance needed for buying a bike. This was causeing much consternation. I have been leaning towards buying from a dealer so that I may be able to get them to sort it all out for me. So far I have not been able to get this organized. Time for some lateral thinking. I remebered about small business's using secretarial and office services and also answering services. Me thinks, Mail services? I googled, and there were heaps of them. Try" mail forwarders UK" , Some of them actually promote the idea of using them for DVLA stuff. They provide you with an address, and a forwarding service and all sorts of other interesting things. All for a price of course. But probably cheaper than the option of paying extra through a dealer for a bike.Pays to look at a number of them as the fees vary wildly. Also worth a look for insurance is this lot. Camper Van Insurance and Motor Vehicle Insurance I have made enquiries but have not yet recieved a reply. Hope this helps for those in a similar situation. I"ll add further comment as the process unfolds. ED

You don't have to be british citizen to buy and own bike legally in UK.
As far as you supply UK adress they send you registration certificate in your name. Also insurers don't dig if you are living here or not. What they usually ask is what kind of licence you have (just state international or other) and how long you reside (state less than year or so). Whatever you state no one will ask about it, even in case of accident. There is 4 major bike insurers: Bennetts - Motorbike Insurance, Compare from 12 insurers online eBike Insurance - Welcome to eBike Insurance Motorcycle | Adrian Flux Cheap Motorbike Insurance - Motorcycle & Bike Insurance - Carole Nash Try them and choose best one. If you need adress send me a private message we talk it up.
