Subject: Prices in Europe


As far as I know, not only our dealers are responsible for price
differences, but mainly the greed-factor of the different governments.

Taxes on import, VAT (= BTW, TVA, ...), ... they decide the price.

Ps.: last friday there was the biker parade to the Brussels Motor bike show.
Some say there were 5.000 bikers, others claim 8.000.  Anyway, I always
thougt there were about 5 @ in Belgium.  I must revise my opnion, there are
loads of @ in Belgium!  And among the different types of bikes, we
definitely scored the most points in the category 'people who DON'T bother
to wash their bikes fo a parade' :-)
