sending petrol tank to australia

<< < (2/2)

Lobo:
Last year Menno (on this forum) kindly posted me a beautifully painted 750 tank to my home here in Brisbane (admittedly from Germany); I don’t recall him mentioning any significant hurdles or issues. (His web address www.tanklackieren.de)

I personally bought 5x bikes out from the UK in 2019; and had to make a ‘no Asbestos’ declaration for each. As a precaution I took the brake pads out of all the machines. I believe Oz customs, at their whim, are entitled to strip any bike to check for asbestos, and if any found may return / destroy it…. but the reality is slim and would be very bad luck.

Why just say it is a 'metal container' you wouldn't  actually be lying!  8)

Thanks for the advice guys, just waiting to hear from him as he may have a friend in UK i can send it to. I was worried if I sent it as "spares" if it was found out it would be confiscated, probably watching too many Oz tv programs about customs!
