There is at least one dealer in the UK who has started to offer a buy-back scheme:-
Stafford Motorcycles Ltd Showroom | eBay Motors Pro
They don't say in their advertisement if they can handle a buyer from overseas, but such schemes used to be commonplace back in the good old days. 
ps. This dealer is not related to me, but I just keep noticing on ebay that they have some interesting bikes in stock from time to time. Their asking prices tend to be at the top, but if their buy-back price is also good then "not so bad".
I agree with others; renters who are prepared to offer one way rental must be few and far between; maybe, a big, big organisation can provide such a service (the equivalent of, say, Hertz car rental) but most businesses just are not that big.
pps. I have a dim memory that BMW used to have some kind of "pick up here and drop off there scheme". As a manufacturer, they definitely use a network of "authorised test outlets" for test riding their bikes, across Europe - it might be worth searching for them.
