I just ordered the XR650L as a powered rolling chassis for my "40 litre" Acerbis tank. the prices for the bike and shipping have gone up a little at the HondaShop, but the Aussie dollar has weakened to nearly 2.9 to the pound. for those importing to the UK, the taxes are 8% duty on everything plus 17.5% VAT on top of everything. so, take HondaShop's 8200 for the bike and 950 for airfreight, convert it to pounds and then add 26.9%. with 2.9 A$ to the pound (last week), its £4000 all in.
