Give up , unless its a pre 89 model. The only way is if you live overseas for a year whilst owning the bike , or import it thru a RAW workshop which costs $$$$$$$ if the bike hasn't been approved previously. | ||

cheers mick! if only ozzy laws were as relaxed as NZ importation laws...  could that be a loop hole? what is RAW workshop? | ||
| Mick |
Registered Automotive Workshop , these workshops get a model of a bike not imported and make it conform to ADR's , get it approved and then they can import as many as they like . I rang around to Get an S2 from NZ, but no one that I rang did Buells . I was told it would cost 30G's to get one approved. | ||

I tried to send my Triumph Daytona to my brother on law in Cairns but it proved too muck time, money and trouble... He found himself a GSXXER and he is a happy guy. | ||

Yep, went down this path myself with an RS1200 and had to back out due to the fact that it couldn't be done. Apparently it all changed due to the importers of grey import cars from Japan. It used to be a rolling 15 year rule. ie. , if it was 15 years old, you could import it. |
