If I'm wrong then forgive me but it seems the one on e-bay is a full system and the other is just a slip on. Though that e-bay one looks like a better deal as it is nearly the same price as the slip on, it's coming from Italy. That means HM Revenue & Customs will actually rape you for import tax and VAT.

The Mivv GP for the pointy is a 3/4 system. Not quite a full system but more than just an end can.

You re-use the stock front header and, I think, the rear stub. Everything else comes with the cans. No cutting of the stock pipework required.

It looks like both links are for the same product.

Would you get hit for tax when it's coming from an EU member state? I've only ever been charged for stuff coming from the US.

Probably best going for the motor exhaust one then?would rather not get hit with import tax!
As you can tell don't really know a great deal about bikes.got my first bike (08 SV) last week :)

No import tax to pay, as its being sent from Italy, part of the EU

No worries, the only way to learn is by asking questions and making mistakes in my opinion.

If there is no import tax as it's from the EU, will he still get charged the VAT?

[Adam4eva2k4]

Yeah fair point,would rather not make the mistakes tho!
So would you say I'm better off buying off the website rather than ebay?
Thanks

No VAT to pay either, as VAT will have been paid in Italy too.

Not until we decide to leave Europe, will import duty & VAT be charged for this kind of transaction.

Its only stuff outside the EU where you still have to pay the charges, such as stuff from the USA

I learn something new everyday. In my opinion you will be better off buying form the UK trader. It's only about an extra £17 quid and for that, you know you can chase them down if anything goes wrong. It will just be more of a hassle sending it back to Italy if there's anything wrong.

Yes, I agree

Although having seen an Mivv exhaust on a Pointy it looked well made, fitted well, and I'm pretty sure it was bought from an EBAY seller in Italy?
