Houghmade,
It is not illegal to order parts from china but I believe you when you say they have a law about assembling them together with the intent to resell.
I guess they would be looking for quantity buyers, in order to substantuate.
I would think that searching for plutonium might be a little more important.

according to my many conversations with various sellers...everyone's finally seeing the light...there's a wave of migration towards "legal" configurations and products. my opinion is that the feds won't waste time chasing down individual owners but will simply cap the well of (chinese 2-stroke) parts and engines.

note we've removed the ebay ads...too many cheap kits are flooding the market, someone's trying to cash in big-time, offering really cheapo kits as low as (i've been told) $55 wholesale. rumors indicate some pretty nasty tactics too...one hand being all nicey-nice, other hand being greedy and capitolizing on grey-area legislation. i love the happy-time engine, and would give an arm for a "legal" and compliant version, but i'm not gonna hold my breath waiting.
 
YES HONDA LOST BILLIONS ,,when the three wheeler law suits hit a few years back ,,honda motorcycles division lost to much for there liking ,,would not surprize me if the bean counters "OUR RICE COUNTERS",,said losing sales to china is next and went to greasing some bodys wheels ,banning exports of engines ,,stranger things have happened,,,the closed boardrooms of biggies like honda work like the cia ,,honda held out its trade secrets for years ,,closely gaurding all racing specs on all machines,,,makes me wonder ,,old petes buddy could be correct about japan,,,regards wheelsmith
 
Just Don't Get It

SITTING here listening to my neighbors weed eater ,,,the guys from the power company running a screaming saw thru my trees ,,and the city worker leaf blowing sidewalks,,,just don't get it ??what makes motorbike engines the worst ??,,,somebody don't like um ,,,has any one group challenged the rulings??,, WHEELSMITH
 
AND YES read every thing on site on banned imports ,,did not take the pole,,still don't understand ,,how of all engines imported ,did the bike engines get singled out for ban??the discussion on ban became debate on honda cars ???,,still in the dark
 
Perhaps it has to do with our Japanese friends not wanting the chinese to copy and market their cheaper products to America. After all China is not on "America's hot to deal with" list, right now.
Can't blame Japan but I do wish Japan would lower their cost.
