Why import a motorcycle from the USA?

1
Access to rare models and brands
The US market has models not sold in Georgia — Harley-Davidson, Indian, Victory, and rare Japanese sport bikes. US auctions give you access to thousands of motorcycles in every condition.
2
Prices 40–70% below Georgian retail
A Harley-Davidson Sportster or a Honda CBR600 from a US auction costs a fraction of local dealer prices. Customs on motorcycles is also lower than for cars due to smaller engine sizes.
3
Clean and salvage titles available
Both clean-title and salvage-title motorcycles are available. Salvage bikes with minor cosmetic damage offer the best value — the bikes run perfectly but were written off by insurance.

4
Customs clearance
Customs on motorcycles uses the same excise formula as cars — but smaller engines mean significantly lower duties. We handle all paperwork.
