QUEBEC VERSUS NEW YORK - cross border motorcycle
I am a US citizen with permanent residence in Canada. I would like to buy and insure a motorcycle in the US with my brother. In New York two owners can register a motorcycle at once. I maintain a part-time residentce in New York and still have my New York license (motorcycle). Would it be legal to operate this bike in Quebec under these criteria? In order to get a Quebec motorcycle license you must take a course, and I have already done that in New York.... Please let me know if you have a minute what you think.

I am amazed that I am answering this today BUT!
If you have a Quebec driver's licence and Quebec medical, you better get a Quebec motorcycle licence.
In addition, you have to pay duty to bring the motorcycle (driving or trailered) into Canada because you are a resident of Canada.
Do it right. As the survivor of a couple of neat motorcycle accidents (one right on the border on top of a mountain at Ossoyos, BC), I can not encourage you enough to do it right.
