Help importing GSA

[David3270]

Hi,
I've bought a GSA from Belgium and need to get it registered, have booked MOT but!
Can anyone help ! I need to change my speedo to mph from km.
Is there a cheap and easy way to do this and is it possible to do myself?
Would appreciate any help
Dave

You need a GS911 or the dealer.

How does the 911 change the clocks?

Buy a sticker set and save your money.

I bought that sticker when I imported my old GS from Spain years ago. When I went to the DVLA to re-register the bike they didn't even ask for it, but I had an invoice from a garage saying that it was applied. You do have to change the headlight though because the light goes the other way, I had to buy a new part altogether.

Didn't even change my clocks on the gs I got in Germany

Where do you find out about the costs of these import changes please?

HMRC for the import duty & VAT, you will also need a "certificate of conformity" otherwise you will have to go through the
SVLA test for motorcycles. Without approval you can't get your V5 and therefore can't tax or register the bike. I brought a Bike back from Japan so I had to go down the SVLA route. Took less than 2 weeks from passing test to get the V5 which you need to get the reg plate made up.

More information on link below, get the NOVA sorted as you will get a fine if this is not done. Then sort the necessary bike requirements.
Hope this helps.
