You're welcome VTRgirl, not much use to you but I thought you might be interested in the price comparisonVTRgirl wrote:Thanks for that Chris! The $12,500 isn't a done deal yet, but it looks like that's what I'll get. It seems pretty good for here, and judging by the conversion, close to your prices. I have noticed in the past that your bikes tend to go for less than the same over here.
Just makes the riders over here a bit more elite, I guess.
I'm not sure about the elite bit, although if you are referring to the influence over political decision-making you may be right
but I do know all vehicles here in the UK get a heavy tax slapped on them I remember some years ago you could buy a Triumph motorcycle in the USA quite a few thousand pounds (dollars equivalent) cheaper than we could in the UK, the annoying thing was that they were actually made over here
