Where does the high cost come into play? I mean, are these bikes epxensive to buy direct from the factory/shop in Japan or is it reseller markup or postage that makes the prices high? The reason I ask is that my cousin is married to a Japanese guy.. and my mate's cousin lives in Japan.. and Australia is closer to Japan than England..
