Importing Scooters

[m3gtr]

Im just going to throw this one out there and see what those in the know think of it...

A mate of mine and I were talking about the possibilities of importing the lowrider pimp scooters that may or may not be floating about in Oz at the moment.

There are an absolute plethora of them in and around Tokyo and im looking into buying one for my own use.

I know Australia has the Berghman and the Forza but im not sure about the other brands.

If importing the bikes isnt possible we are thinking of customized parts importing.

Anyone feel kind enough to lend some words of advice?

Cheers.

Guys, i have some homework and i have questions here.

I understand a vehicle will need to be supplied as a sample and then applied for importation approval through a RAW for the SEVS register but can any RAW complete this procedure?

The goal of this is being the addition of the particular model on the SEVS register.

Im showing my greenness here but is it correct for me to say the vehicle needs to pass 2 out of 4 of the initial design requirements? Something along the lines of appearance and publications? If i can manage to get the thing published and prove its design uniqueness, this goes toward SEVS registration?
