Wojo ,if you dont register it in michigan. you dont pay the state tax, theres a good thread on this subject on the rat site i think this might be it http://www.triumphrat.net/rat-canada/284...importing+bikes
i was toying with that idea too, strangley enough a day or two after reading the rat site thread, i met a guy at a crappy tire ,who had just bought a 04/05 tiger in Texas somewhere and was getting his safety cert for the bike , said he had no problems at all saved 3 gs and had a hoot on the journey back to Vancouver .let us know how it goes if you do the import thing
