What are you wanting to buy ? . I could mention a NZ importer but i am not until they come up with the bikes i requested . My gut feeling is that i have wasted my time while they support dealers 1st . Need to have a thin out anyway , no room at the inn .

The issue you face is that motorcycles unlike cars need to be shipped in a container. So where you might buy a bike. getting it here is a bit of a mare.
Keep in mind too that jap bikes for domestic use are speed restricted

Vessel currently berthed at Auckland Port and MPI Verification Process commenced at 11am this morning. This is expected to take several days to complete.

Buy a van and a bike at auction for peanuts , put the bike in the van and ship to NZ . Sell the van and with all the profit made you end up with a free bike . That's how it works isn't it , Seeing a open container load of bikes with them stacked 2 high on wooden frame work looks quite impressive .
