I wouldn't claim they can't be brought in. I know a guy with 8 of them in
crates. These may not be the same bikes. These are made from the plans of
German WW2 military bikes. I'll go over and get some pics when I get a
chance.

I know a guy here in town who imported a collection of Chinese motorcycles. Not
street legal, but not cut up either. airport use. (maybe brought them in on
his C-123 and the ATF folks were looking at something else?) They don't sound
like Harleys, and not quite a honda either. More a "bitty bitty chang chang"
kind of sound.

Classic designs always get copied, but like a copy of the Mona Lisa they
just don't get the style of the original
:)))))))

And I assume that smiles above are the Yak/CJ version of the Mona Lisa Smile?
I've heard that the Russian radial was based on the US radial design. And didn't
the Russians copy a B-29, right down to all the mistakes and graffiti? Now
if the Russians had had to land one of "their" B-29s in China, I wonder what
the Chinese would have called it?

I may have mis spoke when I stated that they could not be brought in to the
US. What I should have said was that when I last checked (which was 2 years
ago) the motorcycles would not pass emission specs. But knowing the lack of
standards at the various customs I'm not surprised that someone has managed
to get some in the country. Maybe I'll try it again, cuz the biggest one
with the side car is a real hoot to drive.

Did you see the four-place bikes? They'd be ideal transport to and from

B-29
When I was in China Last year the I saw a Copy of the B-29 there, I
understand the Russian's sold some of the 850 they built to the Chinese,
there was Three there when I saw them, would be a good project for someone
Ha.
