I know how to get them licensed here very easily. You need a solid bill of sale from the "previous owner" (which really could be anyone here in the US with a ligit US address). Cost for initial registration and plate for me was about $100, and cost to transfer that registration and plate to a WA title/plate/registration totally ligit with all the exact VIN digits was another $80.

Buy it. That's a real decent price. Last time I checked, prices on NSR's in Japan has recently gone up quite a bit.
