Re: newbie from norway
decided on keeping as a uk bike 
took it for its MOT...
the bike had been stood for 10 years, i filled the tank, and rode it 30 odd miles to the mot station. of course it passed! the carb needs a strip and clean, its leaking a bit and it wont idle so well.
next step is new tyres (back doesnt need changing and front is only advisory) and i am thinking of making it a bit more powerful. is it easy to fit a 110cc engine into one of these?

Welcome!
My housemate is from Norway (Lives outside Oslo) SO at some point we were planning a trip from UK to his house in Norway
Isn't it expensive to import bikes into Norway?

Re: newbie from norway
its bloody crazy to import anything here, i imported my car (not using it on the road) i payed over 2 grand, in shipping and VAT. (shipping was around 800 i think) its a nice place though, i live on the westcoast near bergen, in the heart of the fjords... i can leave the keys in my bikes here, theres no crime and the quality of life is great! fun fact, the c90 was never sold here, all the ones that were sold were grey imports i guess...
