Motorcycling makes some strange bedfellows
(lemmy.ca)
This is the 2017 bobber I had when we lived in Switzerland. And my wife's 50th anniversary Vespa.
When we bought these nobody told me I couldn't bring them home to Canada. So when we came home we had to sell them both. I miss that bike every day. But recently got a new-to-me 2018 that I will mod until it looks just like that one.
Darn it, too bad you couldn't ship them home as parts. (Radar, MASH) It would be funny to look up the rules, it's possible removing the wheels or handlebars or something simple renders the entire thing as "parts." (Still, I feel your pain.)
Either way it would have to be registered as self-built. And the insurance/reg hits are significant. At least I could replace mine after a couple of years looking. My wife's vespa is not available over here at all with the package she had.
