Can anyone offer any advice.
My DR650 Ohlins rear shock and fork parts have been sitting in Brisbane (3500 kms away) for around three weeks. (thanks for telling me)
It now looks like i am going to be reamed on top of the AU$2000 (US$1900) spent so far, (The DR Ohlins (special order) is no longer available and the AU distributor was not interested in helping) i expected to pay some form of duty/tax.
The paper work is unbelievable and can only be done via fax .
Is a broker the only real way to go but being as said 3500 kms away makes that almost impossible.
