[QUOTE="Checkswrecks, post: 520230, member: 3536"] There've been a few FJRs to Alaska and back. As for importing a bike that was never sold in the US, people have done it but you have two hurdles that are extremely tough and/or expensive to get past. There's a Federal safety requirement, a State safety requirement, and a pollution (EPA) requirement. Basically, you need to be able to prove that you have the US-approved lights (style and bulb), horn, speedo, etc. Then you need the EPA approved muffler(s) and to have passed the pollution tests. I looked at it a few years ago for importing a Honda Trans Africa twin that I found in Montreal and the hassle wasn't worth it. Bob [/QUOTE]
