1. Transport Selection

We offer two primary international transport methods:

Sea Freight: Approx. 32 Days

The most cost-efficient and commonly selected method. Motorcycles are containerized and secured in custom-built wooden crates. Ideal for collectors who prioritize value without urgency.

Air Freight: Approx. 3-4 Days

Significantly faster and recommended for time-sensitive acquisitions, exhibitions, or events. Air freight costs are substantially higher but drastically reduce transit time and handling stages.

We advise clients based on destination, urgency, and insurance valuation. Our team regularly ships motorcycles purchased from our classic motorcycle inventory to collectors worldwide.

2. Payment Confirmation & Export Preparation

Accurate documentation ensures smooth customs clearance at the destination country. If you have questions regarding documentation requirements, our team can be reached through the contact page.

3. Professional Crating & Protective Packaging

The motorcycle is transferred to our trusted international freight forwarder.

The motorcycle is secured inside a custom-built wooden export crate designed specifically for international transport.

The objective is zero movement during transit. The same mechanical care used during our vintage motorcycle restoration work is applied during preparation for shipping.

4. Customs Handling & Port Processing

Sea freight departures occur weekly. Once the shipment is onboard, all shipping documentation and tracking details (for Air Freight) are provided to the client.

5. International Transit & Tracking

6. Import & Registration Documentation

Each motorcycle is shipped with full export documentation:

These documents allow the client to clear customs, register the motorcycle and obtain collector or historical vehicle registration where applicable. So far, all motorcycles we have delivered to customers worldwide have been easily registered with new license plates, without any complications.

7. Door-to-Door Delivery (Optional)

For maximum convenience, we offer door-to-door delivery service to most countries worldwide.

8. Insurance & Risk Management

Upon request we can arrange:

We strongly recommend full insurance coverage for rare and high-value motorcycles.

Museum-Level Protection Protocol

Custom Wooden Crating

Every motorcycle is secured inside a purpose-built export crate designed to minimize movement and protect delicate mechanical and cosmetic components during international transit.

Mechanical Stabilization

Fuel systems, batteries, suspension components and sensitive surfaces are prepared according to international transport requirements before shipment.

Documentation Accuracy

Export documents, ownership records and customs paperwork are prepared carefully to support smooth international delivery and registration.

Our Shipping Philosophy

International transport of vintage motorcycles is not routine cargo handling.

From our workshop in Vietnam to private collections across Europe, North America and Australia, every motorcycle travels under the same principles that define our restoration standards: care, accuracy and respect for mechanical heritage.

Securely Crated. Properly Documented. Professionally Delivered.

Preservation First

Every motorcycle is treated as a historically significant machine, not ordinary freight.

Documentation Accuracy

Correct export documents and customs preparation ensure smooth international delivery.

Collector Confidence

Our objective is safe delivery with complete transparency from workshop to destination.
