Correct.  Import it in pieces and declare it as "spare parts" for 
customs.  Only parts with VIN numbers are a problem.  I've read of 
several 2-stroke motorcycles being imported into the USA this way (FYI, 
all new two strokes are illegal in the US because of emissions laws).

However, I've never done it, so this is probably worth what you paid for 
it.  :-)
