When you place an order, we will search and our mechanics will go to work right away and restore the scooter exactly according to your specifications. The scooter ships usually within 20 days and is fully insured for fire and explosion on the container ship (with extra fee). By default, we ship to nearly 200 ports around the world and over 70 points in the United States. See the full list of destinations BELOW. Our worldwide shipping to major port is only USD 450/per scooter.

As soon as we receive your order, we start the works according to your specifications. We will keep you updated via email with photos of your new ride coming alive. It takes 6-7 weeks for transit time to your location. You can learn more about the restoration process HERE. Meanwhile, we are working on all the documentation and as soon as the scooter leaves, we will send you all original documentation for the scooter including:

Original VIN numbers of the frame and the engine
Bill of sale and bill of lading
Registration certificate and proof of deregistration & Certificate of Origin
Owner’s manual and parts book
Invoice in the full amount and invoice in smaller amount for customs purposes


PACKING AND SHIPPING

We create specifically designed wooden cases tested against impacts to fit exactly the size of the scooter. All boxes are made from durable 1/2 inch plywood and the casing is supported by strong wooden material. The bottom of these cases is made from especially durable material to ensure stability and prevent the scooter from traveling inside its temporary home. When the bottom part (especially the front wheel and the kickstand) is secured with tailor made clamps, the most vulnerable parts are carefully wrapped and padded to prevent scratches and dents. All chrome parts are also covered with a protective paste to prevent abrasions and the loss of shine.

All spare parts and accessories are wrapped and padded separately and subsequently filled in to the overall protective cover of the scooter to prevent them from moving and scratching any surfaces. Every shipment is inspected several times and finally the whole inside of the case is padded with UV-resistant and water repelling plastic to protect the content of the crate from dust on its way. All shipments comply with international standards and are fumigated and treated against pests. The overall dimensions of the cases are:

Width: 29″ (75 cm)
Length: 78″ (198 cm)
Height: 49″ (125 cm)
Weight: around 440 lbs (230 kg+) depending on the scooter and accessories included.

We always make sure to use the most reliable, secure and affordable service around to save you money and troubles. All our shipments are insured against loss, fire damage and explosion on the cargo boat (with extra fee). Please do not hesitate to contact us, if you have specific transportation wishes or you have received a damaged scooter. Note please that we will help you with your claim with the insurance company but we cannot be held responsible for the scooter shipment itself.


PICKUP AND CUSTOMS

With the scooter en route, you will be contacted by a forwarding company to claim your shipment and bring it safely through customs. As the customs and import procedures might vary based on your location, please consult our dedicated section. The pickup up procedure is very straightforward and we are always available to help you navigate through any difficulties you might encounter. We have done this many times and apart from navigating the actual boat, we are pretty skilled in dealing with forwarding companies, custom officers and warehouses. After clearing the customs you will be directed to the nearest warehouse to pick up your shipment. In our experience a smaller pickup truck will do the job and most warehouses will load your truck free of charge. Make sure to secure the wooden case with strong straps, so you don’t loose your precious cargo on the way home. If you cannot pickup your scooter or do not want to do it, we can deliver the scooter Door to Door to your address with extra charges.
