Is it possible to have two names on the registration, mine and an Aussie local friend of mine?
I thought it would be easier to ship and drive the bike abroad if there is my name on rego. Would it?!
At the same time, I thought it would be easier once I want to resell the bike if there is name of a local resident on rego. Would it help?

Hi,
I'm confused, are you bringing the bike in and selling it, or buying the bike and leaving with it? Or just buying it, touring Aus and reselling?
You can only register a vehicle in one name.
If the bike is registered in Australia and is not leaving Australia then you won't have nay hassles regardless of who's name it's registered in.
Selling is easier if the person selling it is the registered owner. But there are ways around that using scanned documents.
Not sure what happens if leaving Aus with the bike. I'd say it would be complicated if not in your name.
