No probs getting them rego'ed here, if they pass your mot's should be good to go in OZ as well.
You can bring them in with you as personal imports but it would pay to check with customs for the finer details.

It's all paperwork bullshit, you just pack em in with your household shit then unload em at this end, take em to the motor reg get em registered then ride em!


That tail on the GSX looks pretty cool!

Seriously , I wouldn't bother mate. You will not even come close to getting those road legal out here without alot of work . Many a bloke emigrating from the UK has run into situation were the bike they have that is legal in the UK isn't even close in Australia . We have all sorts of headache laws & rules that make many of the mods you have done imposssible to pass and a cop magnet if you ride on the road with them . The bikes look way cool but the shit involved is pricey and would completely change the look on both bikes . There are several compliancing Engineers on this board that can give you a better idea of what you need but both bikes need some serious work to pass . No shonkies either as the Gumbiment makes those fella's take photo's and checks things too .

Nah Wayne, says he's coming to Adelaide! All they check will be 2 mirror's, chain gaurd, rear mudgaurd not too short, legal brake lines (if braided), rear reflector, loudness, tyres, oil leaks just basic roadworthy stuff. Got the bars too Wayne, all good, thanks mate.
