Now, I don't have SuperFour, but after seeing the NC42 pics, I really, really want one.
Anyone got one of these? I think they were made in 2011, so probably not many over here yet.
Can anyone recommend an importer?
Thanks!!

I think I saw one on eBay, but it was close to £6k.

Thanks, I'll search the completed listings. I think you might be right on the price; just been checking the prices in Japan, and they aren't cheap. Probably really crazy to spend so much on a 400?

How did you find out Fastline are importing 2 B0l D'or's and when will they arrive?

Hello, a freind lives nearby and calls in from time to time, they told him what was on the way in their next shipping container load. Give them a call, contact details are on their website.

I imported a shop soiled new bike from Japan using FVEJ (run by an Australian) in 2013. Bike was just short of £4,000 but when you add in the fees, shipping & marine insurance, UK taxes & DVLA testing/registration it ended up at just shy of £7,000. Also add in loads of stress i.e. I don't know the Guy, will it get damaged in transit, will it pass UK approval etc.

Hope this helps

Thanks, I e-mailed Fastline yesterday but didn't get a reply. I was thinking of going down the personal importing route but as you say it's a lot of worry. An exporter in Japan expressed an interest even though I only want the one bike, they said they could add it to a container they are shipping this week but want half the money up front. I was tempted to do it but they don't have a bike in stock that I want so it would mean them sourcing one and me agreeing I want it. All a bit worrying to me, it'll be easier if I can just go up to Fastline and pick one.

Which exporter was this, FTM? I might decide to risk it one day soon...

Ciao,
