if I did by some miracle manage to ride all the way from Europe on a UK registered bike, how many months/years could I hang around before some 'useful tool of the gestapo' reported me and/or got stopped/fined?

cheers

You can ship past the difficult countries. I had a plan to ride my bike home, but covid and Iran conflict have stopped my plans. 

 

It is a long ride which need proper planning, parts and time and not to forget skills riding on all kinds of surfaces as well timing.

don't let convid get you down brother...that load of lies and BS is over now, concentrate on your health.....BUT yes perpetual war is always a problem lol

shipping is expensive and awkward and can involve bribes n stuff in dodgy places like Egypt

I think foreign registered bikes get 30 days permit on land entry to Thailand. I heard can extend this by another 30 days in some central customs office in big towns. After that must exit..., but check for yourself to be sure...
