I air freighted my bike (BMW F650) from Kuala Lumpur to Perth (Oct. 2002) with a carnet guaranteed by the Canadian Automobile Association. No problem with customs; no problem with quarantaine (hand cleaned bike myself before shipping in K.L.); no problem with road worthiness (did not bother). Did not even buy third party liability insurance, but made sure not to be stopped by police for any reason. Circumnavigated Oz and went up to Top of Cape York. Make sure there is no dirt whatsoever under the fenders. This was the only place the Man checked. Regards, Werner.
