Bring Bikes from France

[JulieP]

Hello everyone,

I'll quickly introduce myself seeing as this is my first post here... We are Jules & Jeff and retired to France (Dordogne Region) from the UK just over 3 years ago. Our original idea was to go to Greece but learning the language put us off. we've picked up French quite well (me more than Jeff) but disappointed with many things including the weather here.

Anyway, we're considering moving to Spain next year (house not on the market yet) and just doing a bit of research. One of the main problems we found here was not being able to register our motorbikes. Jeff has a 2000 Suzuki Hayabusa and I have a 1997 Honda CBR400RR. Does anyone know the regulations for importing bikes into Spain. They're still registered in the UK at the moment.

This is probably just one of many questions we'll probably have whilst planning the move so any comments thoughts are welcome.

Jules
