Motorcycle tour of Sweden and Norway [closed] - Black Toy Car on World Map Paper

A friend and I are in the early stage of planning a two week motorcycle tour of Sweden and Norway next summer.

Our main consideration is the availability and cost of renting two motorcycles for the trip, preferably with a pick-up / drop-off in Stockholm. A secondary consideration is the ability to take the bikes into Norway for approximately half the trip.

We're looking for advice on renting, or possibly alternatives to renting, from those with experience or good advice on renting / borrowing bikes in Scandinavia.

  • Who to rent from?
  • What are the conditions?
  • What (if any) alternatives to renting are there?
  • How much should it cost?
  • Can we ride on Australian unrestricted motorcycle licenses?

Thanks.

Can you drive motorcycle in Norway?

In a world, magical. Norway has the lowest accident rate for motorcyclists in the whole of Europe, traffic is usually non-existent and the roads are spectacular. Motorbikes are allowed to ride in bus lanes (as long as there's no sidecar), there are very few road or tunnel tolls and bikes don't pay parking fees.

Can you ride a motorcycle to the Arctic Circle?

Yes, in general, the roads are free of tolls for motorcycles, but there are at least two that you need to pay. One is the tunnel taking you from the mainland to the island of Mageroya, where the Nordkapp Tourist Centre is, plus of course, the toll road to the actual tourist centre itself.

You've probably already heard about Alex Chac\xf3n. He became famous after he sold his belongings to travel around the world on a motorcycle across 200,000+ Km, 50+ Countries and 5 continents, and we wrote about his amazing 500 Days Alaska to Argentina trip here.
