Hi,
I took my bike to OZ in 2006 and had to register it. According to the official website it is possible to register bikes with a foreign rego.
Some time later I met a girl from Switzerland who was told that she would require an OZ rego for her swiss bike, which she did. Bloody ignorant officials Cost her roundabout 500 AUD.
Thus follows, that it is generally possible to register a bike as a foreigner. But, as you have suspected, you do need an OZ address. You do not need a permanent residence. The licensing dept. was quite happy with the address of a friend of mine in Melbourne.
What you should consider are the custom regulations in your home country, if you intend to import the OZ bike to Norway.
Hans
