Hi

Could someone please advise if I can bring my immaculate 1998 TL1000R into France when we possibly come and live shortly.

It has 130 bhp at the back wheel, I believe in France 100 bhp is the max ? !

Would I be able to register it etc ?

Regards

Lee

And when you have your first accident and find that the UK insurance is only valid for a UK resident, it could cost you thousands. That is assuming that you are not done by the French police for not importing the bike, which is a legal requirement.

Point taken, thought I may have had responses like that.

My appologies for even thinking it.  Looks like I will have to sell it and get a boring 106 bhp bike until the French may see sense in the future and allow new bikes like the 180 bhp ones like in the UK.

I cannot understand why bikes are restricted but you can drive a car with a 1000 bhp engine in France !
