If you going to ship the bike to Australia anyway ..
A possibility? This might be worth investigating...
Ship + pay the import duties to Australia (over 10% of the value of the vehicle .. )
Register it in Australia .. need to do the regs on that - if the bike is over a certain age then there is no problem with ADR requirements .. think they came in in 1975? But there may be an age limit of ?20? years -- if it is older than that they don't bother?
Then get the Carnet in Australia..
When you leave Australia you should get the import duties back.
Once you get to Portugal you should have the Carnet signed off and be able to send the document back to Australia and get most of the money back from the Carnet.
But do check all this first before taking my pondering here as truth.
Before you start shipping .. do get all the paper work done for importation , and do get all the registration details done FIRST before shipping.
