Anybody with experience of importing from Japan? What’s the process regarding paperwork, agents etc? Just wondering if its an option to acquire a clean, rust free example.

As someone with limited practical experience but keen to carry out more jobs myself in the future I’ve found this a very useful thread. Thanks all the contributors. Raj, I’m keen to know how you’ve progressed with your maintenance and servicing, if you’re happy to share!

Perhaps some experienced owners can point me in the direction of some buying advice, what to look for and avoid etc? Thanks
