I`ll grab a copy of sixth sense and find the superbike center site at lunch.
Holland has slightly diff rules I think you are only allowed 1. But 1 one car aswell ... leave it with me I`ll get back to you ...

Have you contacted Triumph direct? Theres no reason you couldn't buy from them direct - and "export" the bike to the continent - bit more paperwork - but cheaper in the end...

Try these M8

Also speak to your BFG office about how long you have to keep them etc Holland is different.

Can confirm that in Holland you are only allowed one tax-free car per tour plus one tax-free "hobby" vehicle per tour (Caravan/Mobike etc). It is one per driving licence holder in the household - therefore if married 2 cars per tour per family, and 2 mobikes.
