Then they do the same thing in the afternoon. If you've got stock pipes, you should pass. If you've got aftermarket pipes..it could be troublesome"
Then a registration fee. He did not say what that was. Sorry.
Also, he shipped TMO and the hand controls were damaged in the move but not too bad. He could use them but replaced. He also said he might sell over there since they pay outrageous prices for the bikes. Right before he returns so he can get whatever he wants back stateside.

I appreciate the info, man. My pipes are stock, but I also have the 110 with factory screaming eagle slipons, so hopefully ill still be good...I think they're under 80dB
I think the registration fee is around 1200 USD. This will be painful, but hopefully worth it lol.
Thanks again, man!

Re: Japan rg
I don't know if it's new our not, but apparently the HD website has a whole segment in how to export a bike. I haven't gotten to try it yet, but I heard about it from the reply to the email I had the owner of the dealership I bought it from send to corporate HD. I'm on my phone, so I'll try it later.
