The CB1100 Community Forum

Just saw this on Mr. T's website;

Most likely the only way you'll get one here.

And i bet it costs almost as much as the bike :-p. even harder if you live in an inspection state (i don't, thankfully).

Knowing him I would also bet it gets there fast.

Estimate for Canada....
C$18,500 + S&H + duty+ certification, so would say about CS 25,000

CONFIRMED...from Tahashi...

I think we can send a CB1300 to Canada, but I am not sure if you can register it or how to register it in Canada.. The motorcycle costs about 17000 CAD + shipping by FedEx about 8000 CAD or more. *not including tax.


In my opinion, we can find cheaper shipper????
I will check if can be registered in Canada

Request sent to Transportation Ministry/Canada

If you want to get one to the U.S., heres the info from U.S. Customs:

Before you can register a foreign registered vehicle, car or motorcycle in the United States (U.S.) you must be able to prove that you or someone else filed an entry with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will not register a vehicle that has been imported into the U.S. without proof that an entry was filed with CBP and proof that the vehicle conforms to U.S. emissions and safety standards. If the vehicle does not conform to U.S. emissions or safety standards, you will not be able to register it in the U.S. You will either have to bring it up to U.S. standards or export the car.

You also have to submit the Department of Transportation (DOT) Form HS-7, and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Form 3520-1. Keep a copy of these forms just in case the DMV wants a copy of them.

Once you have officially filed your entry and paid duty on the vehicle, you will receive CBP Form 7501 Entry Summary. This form is your proof that you filed your entry with CBP, so be sure to keep a copy to present to the DMV when registering your vehicle.

I'm not convinced it's worth it. Although, I occasionally see an imported exotic car, like a Maserati with European tags, driving around. So somebody knows enough to navigate the cluster.

Aren’t they easy to import after 25 years?

Don’t worry Peter! I’ll be right next to you in another of those wooden boxes in 25 years.

I was asking as there is a car show on TV that specializes in older Japanese Domestic Market cars. They say on the show they import them all the time after 25 years old. But I know noting about importing vehicles.
