PS : Say ric, what bike do you ride ? and did u buy it from Tristar (in riyadh) ? I'm terribly tempted to buy the 990Adv that they've got there but having no experience with such a bike, i don't wanna kill myself. Hence the 520SX/EX.

Hi Vicky
Ive just bought a used 450 EXC-R from a guy here. For registration I need a bill of sale, igama, licence. I'll let you the full picture when I do it, hopefully next week.
The KTM Tri-Star guy (Abdul Rahman) was very helpful and is going to register it for a fee because he sold it in the first instance. I think the registration is 300 SR plus his time. He might be able to advise you.
The 990 is too much of a handful for me. You need something light but powerful on the sand.
I'm not sure on the score at the border. If it is second hand and you have the bill of sale and year of the bike and it is trailered you might be OK (no duty etc). I'd check this if I were you with the KTM guy however, or ask Jusef at the Harley showroom on the northern ring road, he is a good guy too.
Regards
Richard
PS it took me three weeks to get my bike licence. Go with somebody who knows the procedure and who can pay the fee via bank transfer
