Buying a motorbike in Turkey???
 

Hi there,
O'm looking to purchase a R25 BMW from a guy in TUrkey, I want to buy it and ride across Europe. I have been told a number of things about whether as a foreigner without an address and residency in Turkey I cannot buy the bike, does anyone have any experience in this? I hold a Polish and Australian passport.
Please help!
Paul

can't help with this one other than to say maybe you should contact the Horizons community in Turkey, I bet one of those guys know the ins and outs, they were very helpfull to me when i needed somewhere to service the bike in Istanbul, search web site to find the community pages and follow the links. Regards Chris

As far as I know you should have a permenant address to issue the Turkish V5(registration document) called "ruhsat" in your name. However, there might be some easy way which I dont know. Just contact with OMM lads. They will help you.

Good Luck
