Trip Through Europe and Documentation
Hello,
I have spent hours searching through threads and sites. I have yet to find all the answers that apply to my situation and are current enough that I'm looking for.
I live and work in the USA Month On/Month Off. I have spent the last five years touring my 2013 Triumph XC everywhere in North America Alaska-Panama-Newfoundland-Key West. I am getting ready to finish this summer 2022 and want to start my next tour in Europe. I have family in France and friends everywhere so storage is of no concern. I plan to fly back and forth to my bike and tour around for the next few years not always consecutively.
1st Question is: I want to ship my bike from an East coast port to a European port any tips for best shipping and receiving locations. I'm open to any location best for customs, cheapest, or even smoothest? and nothings too far for me on either coast.
2nd Question is: I have ZZreo plans to sell my bike when I'm finished I'll just move it to my next location or home. What is the best way to either Import, CDP, or if possible to send it as a Tourist. I have read people say they keep their 2nd bikes over there but how? Boarder guards don't stop you for exceeding 6 months? What about crossing boarders what documents are needed? and if the tourist way is the best route what is that called and what documentation is needed for shipping company's?
Any Guidance or Tips are Greatly Apricated.
