You say you have dual nationality, but do you actually hold a valid in date French Passport?. Do you have a Canadian or European driving licence? or both.
Do you have a registered address in France where you can prove residency ( ie supply a ''facture EDF ou Orange'' with your name and address on it). If you have a valid French passport/permit de conduire, and a provable residential address, then it's easy to buy a bike here, if you haven't it's a nightmare.( it's the residential address that's important). As suggested in other postings you might be able to get something in the U.K., but again, you will have to be able to provide an address where you can be contacted in order to be able to register any bike you buy in your name. Insurance companies will not ( generally speaking) insure any vehicle which is not registered to the insurer.
There are companies ( people) who do sell and buy back schemes. A good company I know in France has been doing this for sometime. You tell them what you want, they find it, you buy it and register it using their French residential accommodation address, you use it, and at the end of the period they buy it back from you at a pre agreed price. Have a word with Laurent, He's bilingual French /English. Voyagiste à moto & location moto et scooter
Good luck.
