Importing a duke

I understand u can buy a duce such as a 916, 996 or 999 at the jap
auctions and get them complied to get them into australia. can anyone
who has experience in this area please help me with the procedure and
also the contacts within australia....cheers

 

Go to the website of the road traffic authority in your state and search
for information on importing a vehicle. The rules changed a few years
ago making it virtually impossible for individuals to import random
vehicles and get them registered in Australia.

There are 3 ways to get a newish bike into Oz from overseas.

1) you have been overseas for a year and have owned the bike overseas
all that time.


2) You have documentation from the factory that the bike complies with
Oz rules. SO that's official letterhead, all serial numbers and so
on.

3) someone *in Australia* has the right to set that make and model up
for compliance.

So I'd say whoever told you that is mistaken.

Wake up Niko, they are buckets of shit.. told you that for years...

 

Hi Biggus.

Aye, it does seem a fairly strange idea, acquiring a grey-import,
ex-Japan, Ducati.

I thought there were quite enough Dukes in Oz already, and the genuine
import ones are available.

I suppose the idea is to get one cheap, but that seems to go against the
main point of buying a Duke in the first place, being able to skite
about how much it cost.

That's OK. As soon as it is in the garage it will cost and keep on
doing so.

Unlike Japanese clone RUBBISH JUNK.

Buy a Ducati[GOD] limited edition or low volume model and it equals =

not tell them apart...
