Hello blokes, when you talk about prices there in UK, is it all you pay for the bike or you still have to pay some additional taxes?
For example, £7.500 bike. How much does that bike cost on the road, I mean everything paid until last penny?
Here in Portugal prices on vehicles are complete. You pay for it and you get the key and ride (drive) away. Every single tax is included in the price, even the cost of licence plates and registration documents.
Having that in mind, my bike was €12.000, in pounds £8.950, with hand guards, fancy decals and belly pan. That was back in September 2014 and new ones are still the same price.
