So called harley headquarters to get a letter of compliance to get my bike down across the border into the usa form canada. The guy on the phone says in 5 to 7 days you will have letter saying its all good for you bike to be in the usa. I bought a miles spedo cause mover said makes it easier ok. Ordered moving truck bought plane tickets for myself and wife 2 kids 2 cats and dog got them ok. Yesterday moving truck shows up starts packing no letter for bike call harley in wis. they say it takes 6 to 10 business days to process then mail to canada. All they can say is SORRY if youve been misinformed. Coulndt fast track letter or fax to mover because wasnt on form. f*ck me what a bunck of c*ck suckers tell some who organizes a move of over 2000 miles and now have to leave bike up here. I go to local harley dealer and ask if i drop my bike off can you ship to usa. NOPE to much hassle. I do solemly swear to never ever spend one facking dollar in a hd dealership again. Thats some sweet service isnt it. I have a year round riding season and now bike is sitting till next year when i can come and get it. Thanks for letting me vent cause wife doesnt understand my pain.

 

That does suck man. Can't you find a shipping company that can pick it up and deliver it to u?

 

not a lot of movers cross borders cause of the head ache. belive me im trying

 

go back up there and ride it down? its no big deal goin on a road trip from canada to us right?

 

x2 i dont get it whats the big deal..what is a letter of compliance anyway sounds silly to me ..
ride it across put it in truck/trailer what ever and go..i have friensds that trailer their rides down then rent storeage for truck and trailer for 2 weeks while they ride around the usa..?

 

They arent moving down with all their possesions and becoming americans. Just visiting way different.

 

Where you moving to? I'm sure that there are a few guys on here with passports that wouldn't mind a little road trip.

 

YOU ARE JUST VISITING!!!!!! When I moved to Toronto from the USA for 5 years I was always VISITING and it was no big deal. I did get dual citizenship but remember "JUST VISITING and you are home free. Do NOT do it with a moving truck full of stuff though. Just ride/trailer it over. Good luck.

 

Dude that sucks, weather is just getting nice here to. Hope it works out and we can get some rides in.

 

The biggest problem of that whole story is the wife not understanding the pain of NOT being able to ride.....
