- Oh how I envy you...I was there in 87 as a high school
- student...My impression of their MC market was impressive...
- Be sure you get a Honda while you are there...(you might
- even think about bringing one or more back with you...)
- Honda is known not for its cars in Japan but for their
- bikes... You will love the abundance of mountains there...but
- be prepared for the larger cost of living, especially in
- Tokyo...(very expensive)...If you've never been get ready for
- some really interesting times...
-
- You might think about importing a Harley when you go
- over... The local Yakuza will probably be offering you an
- arm and a leg for it once you take it out of its
- crate...foreign cars/bikes go for big money there...a real
- American Harley would command the respect, admiration, and
- cash of anyone who is interested in bikes...of course you
- might not have time for such speculations...(sigh)
-
- Have fun...!!!!!!!!!!!
