Harley Davidson - Certificate of Conformity
 
I'm shipping my Nightrain, and for the import on the other side they are asking that I get a Certificate of Conformity from Harley-Davidson.

They led me to believe that this is a standard specification sheet that the manufacturer hands out at no cost.

Does anyone here know who in Harley to contact for this?

if you have a scanner, or a way to edit the pdf file on your computer, i use faxzero http://faxzero.com/ to fax for free from your computer. saves running around trying to find someone with a fax machine, and then having to pay for it.

When I brought my US bike into Canada, I had to get a recall letter (Is that the "Letter of Conformity?). I bought the bike privately, went to a dealer (Sound HD) and they gave me the letter and the entire history of the bike free of charge.

I thought Certificate of Conformity had to do with a black tee, doo rag, fingerless gloves, & chaps. I guess I misunderstood. :icon_doh:

That's not too far off what my thoughts were, until I embarked on this cumbersome red tape exercise.

My application is with H-D now - my thoughts were why cant they use email instead of fax, then of course SPAM came to mind.

Thanks again to all for their help so far, ....it was all going well until I received the below from H-D USA.

Does anyone know what's required to bring the US spec Harley in compliance with the EEC or ECE.

CONFORMITY OF VEHICLES
A certificate of ECE compliance or local origin is usually sufficient for individual imports. The requirements for vehicles are in general aligned with the applicable standards, regulations and directives of the EEC and ECE. Importers of foreign vehicles are strongly advised to consult NRCS to determine the specific requirements for their vehicle/s. This is essential for vehicles that originate in countries outside of Europe (e.g. Americas, Far East, Australasia).
