Heres a place listing many repatriated UJMs for sale in Japan. Converting some of the Yen to US Dollars shows some pretty crazy prices!!!!!

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it. -

The link isn't working for me but my understanding is that vintage UJMs are in such high demand in Japan that there's a swift market over here for snapping them up and shipping overseas.
I wish the last few decades saw more modern UJMs in the US, like the one Jedz posted. I took a trip to Germany a few years back and was amazed at what they get to choose from. US also gets the most boring color schemes, but that's been true forever.Comment

I understand there are model differences, but all I could see were tiny thumbnails of what looked like '73 - '75 Z1s being called Z11s.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red
2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.Comment

Prices are high most bikes are considerably cheaper here.
What they do have are models that never made it to the N American market.
The Katana in it's original design was reissued for the Japanese market from 1990 to 1994, so if you have the cash they're still available.1979 CBX, AW440 Maico, GS1150EF

Great link! I found 3 GS750G's. Japan home market only bikes. About $6800 to $11800 US. One of them is a GL variety, which I didn't think they sold in Japan.1981 Suzuki GS650GComment
