Buying Bike in Japan?
A friend has suggested starting my RTW trip by flying to Japan, purchasing a bike there, and continuing west via Vladivostok. This would seem to have some appeal as it would save the cost and hassle of shipping the bike across one ocean (I would end the trip on the west coast of the US).
Does anyone have any information about a non-citizen of Japan purchasing and riding a bike there - the legalities, procedure, etc.?
Thanks for any info.
