I buy every Harley myself. And I film it before it goes into the container.
I drive across America looking for motorcycles. I inspect them, buy them and pick them up myself. You get a video walkaround of every bike, before you pay anything.
On their way to Europe

What it costs when the container arrives
The price on the site includes shipping to Rotterdam. Below is what comes on top once the container lands, with the Netherlands as an example. Import duty and VAT depend on the vehicle and your country, so ask me for a calculation for your bike.
Unloading the container
€375
Customs declaration
€85
Import duty
per vehicle
VAT
your country
Is the vehicle 30 years or older and still original? In the Netherlands it usually qualifies as a collector’s item: 0% import duty and 9% VAT. This can differ per European country, and customs decides per vehicle.

From the port of New York to Rotterdam
Follow the journey on Facebook
Every bike starts as a story on the road: a garage in New Jersey, a barn in Maine, a handshake and a ride to the port. On Facebook I share those stories as they happen, together with more than 5,000 riders who already follow along.

FAQ
What people ask me most
Is the shipment insured?
Yes. The shipping is covered by transport insurance.
How long does shipping take?
About four weeks from New York, about two months from Los Angeles.
How do I know where my bike is?
As soon as the bike is sold and loaded, you get the container number, so you can track the container yourself.
How do I pay, and is it safe?
You first receive an invoice. You then pay into the company’s US business account, not a personal account.
What if I change my mind?
You can get a refund. Only the bank transfer fees are deducted.
Can I register the bike in my own country?
Yes. You register it with your national vehicle authority. In the Netherlands, bikes from 2005 or older go through a regular RDW inspection station; elsewhere in Europe the rules differ per country. Ask me if you are unsure.
Can I request a specific model?
Yes. Tell me what you are looking for and I will look out for it on my next trip through the US.
Which model years do you sell?
All of them.
Do you sell outside the Netherlands?
Yes, across Europe. The bike arrives in Rotterdam, and from there transport to your address can be arranged. We also work with people in the Netherlands who can take care of the inspection and Dutch registration. With Dutch papers the bike is an EU-registered vehicle, which usually makes registering it in Italy, Spain or France a lot easier.
Which documents do I get?
Before you pay you get the damage report or Carfax. After purchase you receive the Title (needed for registration) and the customs papers.
Is shipping included in the price?
Yes. The price includes shipping to Rotterdam.
Will I get help after the sale?
Yes. You can keep asking questions about registration and paperwork via WhatsApp.
