I got $29,875 for the same bike in the USA. If the conversion is right, that's 23,125 British pounds. Seems cheaper to buy it in the USA, take a little vacation and ship the bike back! Of course, you'll have instruments that read in miles and MPH. I don't know what other silliness would be involved in importing it to the UK. Probably a bunch of taxes and fees and then the cost of shipping it.

We are still use miles in the UK, fuel is sold in litres, but economy calculated in mpg.

There weren't many choices in the USA build. I took every premium package, with color, wheels, etc. That was as high as I could get the price! The USA site did not have any 2025 R1250RT or R1300RT models on it. Just leftover 2024 models.

If the bike was brought in the US of A and bought back to the UK.
You need to add Shipping, Duty and VAT to the price.
Just Duty and VAT will adds over £6k.
So buying it in the UK would be cheaper.
