I've done some more research and it seems Ireland would suit better as a country to register a vehicle in - so I've amended my enquiries for buying bikes from here - however, they are in shorter supply than in the UK.
I'm running into insurance headaches for 3rd party insurance now though - only knopftours seems to offer insurance - dooby from lobagola seems to not offer insurance without a consultation fee and motocamp bulgaria are non-responsive to any enquiries.

As a long term member here that always give value to the community and industry in general (only one that writes here regularly from all of the "providers" mentioned here), I have to correct you in your stating that we are not issuing insurance if you don't pay a consultation fee (check your emails and quote the sentence if you can find it).
You wrote to us a couple of emails with extensive lists of questions to which you have direct replies to what we can and can't do (as it would be illegal, and Knopf very often does illegal things covering bikes with third party liability that are registered in a country where his POLISH third party liability insurance is WORTHLESS (he is not very knowledgeable or he plain doesn't care about his clients and sells anything that he can, both ways are  ). Ask Knopf if his POLISH insurance is registered with National Bank of Ireland or with FCA, as it seems that if this goes like this, POLISH insurance company will also ran away from him like Axa did.
What we don't provide for free is legal advisory, as you have requested from us to define what can you do in EUROPE and what you can't do in Europe (if you can find any other market participant from the above mentioned that is available to offer such paid advisory I will give you and that person one of my healthy kidney's  ). So i am honestly not sure what has not been clear from our side here again?
Your problem is that you don't understand EU legal framework, nor you understand insurance legal framework and what are you obliged to get and where. How will you obtain this is your "problem", will you get fined for playing around with using Polish insurance that is not registered with National bank of Ireland or FCA in UK, let us know  
Since 2016 we have created special insurance product for different EU markets (Ireland and UK as well) where non EU citizen can buy a motorcycle/vehicle and get it insured through us as we got authorisations from the governing bodies in these countries to operate. But since people have started to abuse this unique product and have caused extremely high insurance claims, we were forced to abandon UK and Ireland retail market.
