I'm in Bondi beach. Send me a PM if you're coming down this way

Thanks for the response, I decided in the end to just get the Australian license, which actually didn't impose any kind of restriction at all. They turned my M2 Ontario license into a full Australian license (R class). So now I don't have to worry about rushing to get my M license, which...

I'm working in Sydney and living in Bondi, 2 minutes from the beach. I've been here for 2 and a half years now and I ride every.single.day. Plus, I can ride from Bondi to the city in 15 minutes (fastest time was 10 minutes). Lane splitting is pretty much legal here, so you never have to wait...

Thanks for the great response Robert, I've just gotten back from the Sydney licensing centre with a New South Wales license, after having regretfully surrendered my Ontario license. I called the Ontario MTO last night and they told me that there were only two locations that had any availability...

Yeah, I can get a NSW license with a full motorcycle license right now, but that requires me to surrender my Ontario license. Once I go back to Toronto, how can I write the M1 or renew my license if I don't actually have the license any more? I just figured they'd ask to see my drivers license...

That's good advice, thanks for the response. I can renew my license when I go back to Canada, but if I do this, then I absolutely have to complete the M1 and M2 tests, otherwise I'll no longer be able to ride a motorcycle in Australia. If I come back to Australia without at least an M2 on my...

oops, you're right, I've been out of the country too long and I mixed up M1 and M2 in my original post. I've edited it so it's now correct. I had an M2 license which has expired, so now I need to go through the entire licensing system again, but I can bypass the mandatory waiting periods...

I can fast track since I've had an M1 license which has expired less than 5 years ago. Once your M1 license expires, you have 5 years in which to go through the complete licensing system, but you don't have to wait the mandatory period between licenses. This is what the MTO told me. Edit: I...

Hi there, I'm a Canadian currently living in Australia with an Ontario drivers license set to expire in February 2013, the M2 portion of which has already expired as of August 2011. I've been riding in Australia for the past 2 and a half years, but once my Canadian license expires, it'll no...
