Import duty if you do it privately 50% on top of US price but average wage bill is 1000 dollars wich is enought fpr living but not for Harley.
For HD-riders still ther is a major problem - OEM parts and aftermarket. Till recent Internet helps a lot. Now with Moko attitude we got to use middle companies in States to get them. But any way more and more boys buying used scoots from USA
So answer is yes.
