Just down the road from me. Will pop in when I ever manage to get back there!

I too am interested in keeping a small bike over there. Presume if it is Spanish registered there are no problems with a UK resident getting it insured and riding on a UK licence?

My understanding that it is the vehicle that is insured so the UK licence should not be a barrier but a competent insurance broker would advise you on this. 

Noted that you state keeping a small bike therefore it is reasonable to assume you are not looking over 160BHP. Gets a bit expensive for insurance above this power output, 4 fold increase over my historical UK costs. I balance that price hike by the fact I was only a summer rider in UK, out here ...

...of course there is not an equivalent UK winter and so ride very regularly all seasons.

I am resident in Oliva, see you out on the road.

No thanks, what I want ideally is a 125 - 500 trail/road legal trials, or enduro bike with a fairly low seat height for my short legs. In the UK I have a Gas Gas Pampera, a BETA Evo 4T trials bike with a long range tank/seat unit and a Honda XR200 and would love something similar to keep in Spain...

Hi, thanks for the advice, I contacted Peter Zwaan lkast week and asked him to keep an eye out for what I am looking for, a 125 - 250 trail/enduro bike. He seems to deal mainly with large cruiser type bikes so I am not sure if he will be able to find what I am looking for, but, we will see. In th...

...e meantime I am still looking for a source for what I am looking for, perhaps local small ads might be a better option for me. I am keen to try a bit of off road riding while I am out there. I compete in long distance trials here in the UK and also do green laning around the Lake District and the Yorkshire dales etc, so keen to replicate that in Spain. I may also look into bringing one of my bikes over from the UK if I can't find what I am looking for locally.

I am planning on being out there in Jan for 3 months, Covid restrictions permitting!

Cheers, Richard.
