This is also posted elsewhere, but as it's very relevant to WA I've posted it up here as well
I worked on a late model "Grey" imported Deuce just yesterday. I'm quite happy to work on them, no dramas there Helped the guy with TTS setup to compensate for HEAVY BREATHER and SE2 ( loudish) slip on mufflers which had just been fitted up.
Compared to many other "greys" I've seen here in WA it was well "minted". It was a super clean bike ( for the age, 2007 ) . Genuine low miles under 4,000. Bone stock one owner when bought privately in the US !
2-Tone Blue and Silver , ex Las Vegas bike apparently. NEVER seen rain. Under the seat pristine clean $17,000 Aussie dollars , (complied Qld ) and on his doorstep in WA . That's the price to pay for an import.
Dealer $21K +++ all day long ! WA rego and stamp duty on toppa that of course ! That's the way to do it if you want the hassle and "risk", and there must be some, let's be honest..
Buying one from a dealer is prolly best for some folks if they want to avoid the potential drama and hassle , that and you get to see and choose maybe from a few available. It will just cost you 3 or 4 K $dollars more !!
And I have 4 others lined up for work already , all 2007 and up "Greys"
I'LL WORK ON 'EM NO WORRIES !!
Once Supercycles get crankin' on compliancing there will be BAZILLIONS of the bastards in WA methinks...
