For example, if your bike was BUILT after April first 2001, then it is required to meet Japanese emissions standards. The test is only done in Sasebo or Iwakuni, costs about $1000 and takes 2 days to accomplish (if your bike passes the first time). I don't have to worry about this with the RC, but it is something that I would have to deal with if I'd brought the VTX.

I got ya.
