I would like other bike owners to be aware of the situation of buying goods from the E.U. following the U.K. leaving, after brexit.I ordered,and paid,for a set of engine bars for my NC750S from Germany at a cost of £147 including delivery. When there was no sign of the bars after a few weeks i made enquiries and discovered they were in the delivery depot where they would remain until i sent £48 customs charge to HMRC. Nobody had informed of this but i didn't have much choice but to pay it, if i ever wanted to see the bars. What had seemed ,initially, like a fair price was not now quite so reasonable. This is the new reality of buying goods from Europe following Brexit and It is what it is i suppose but i feel it is only fair that people are made aware of the extra costs involved.
