Of course, that doesn't guarantee they'll let me back in the US with it though.
But all jokes aside, I am more than positive I have everything I need to import it properly. EPA and DOT U.*. standards are met, and all the proof of ownership and insurance is in effect. I didn't get temporary plates from CT since the DMV didn't know what they were talking about, so I'll have fun pretending to be a Canadian tourist for a while.
Thanks for the sweet ride Jim!

When are rolling through the area (if you are)? I am in binghamton right now getting things with my bonneville all straightened out afterit being stored for the last 4 months. If it is earlier in the day, maybe we could make it a mini meet. I'll be around until about 3:30 when I head back to rochester.

I want to get back home to CT asap, since I didn't really sleep on the 14 hour bus trip here from Hartford.
