WHEN YOU LIKE TO KNOW HOW I CAN OFFER THIS BIKE WITH NO RESERVE AND FREE SHIPPING, EAD THE EXPLANATION AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE.
Express was originally a bicycle manufacturer (and like stated by them the oldest one on the European continent), ut also one of the first motorcycle manufacturers in Germany.After a period that business went down in the late 1950's (because of the mass introduction of economical priced small cars by many European car makers), roduction ended in 1959.
Like the pictures are showing this 1936 motorcycle has many nice and original details which makes it a real pleasure to look at.
Back in the days many bike manufacturers made the choice to fit an engine that came from a engine-manufacturer,wherethis Express SL99model is originally equipped with a (also German made) Sachs engine.These (bullet-proof) Sachs engines are well known because of theiruncomplicated design and durability, here still by today parts for these units can easily be sourced.
The original frame id-plate is still in place and the numbers that are on are matching with the original frame- & enginenumber. Also the engine has still the original id-plate in place with matching number.
It starts instantly and runs ok, he gearbox is shifting, he paint is not nice and showing age and patina. Allthepanel-work (fenders, as-tank etc.) are solid with having a couple of dings and surface rust.
Personally I regardthe condition where the bike is in not as something really disturbing, s machines from this era and in this condition are getting much harder to find and now often command prices higher than nicely restored equivalents, ut then of course there’s always the choice of restoring it.
This machine has never been road-registered and comes with an official European certificate of origin which states the make, odel, ear, isplacement, eight etc. and an official bill of sale from my company here in Belgium. Furthermore I’ll make sure that all the correct export-paperwork will be in place before the bike leaves from here, hich documents will make the process of importing it into the US an easy ride.-On this listing I’moffering a special (fully sealed) motorcycle crate, areful packing and physical shipping from here in Belgium to a US CFS as close as possible to you at my expense,meaning that I will pay for having the bike crated and all handling etc. plus the ocean-freight charge, here you are responsible for all charges at your end, ike ISF filing, ntry fees, ort-handling, ventually broker fees etc.If you want any additional information about this, lease ask before you place a bid.
Furthermore, hen you want to receive some better photo's of the bike/shipping, r want to recieve more information about this item, ust let me know.
I accept PayPal payments.-Additional information to this listing;
I only offer shipping by sea, here of course we can advise you on forehand about the process of importing the machine into your country. Like can be read in the link,this antique bikeis because of its age and displacement exempt from US import-duty and EPA regulations;https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/278/~/importing-classic-or-antique-vehicles-%2F-cars-for-personal-use

The crate will safely sail in a sealed container and the shipment is fullyinsured for eventual damage/loss.

In previous listings I've received many times the same question; "how are you able to offer a motorcycle without any reserve and free shipping??"Where also a few times has been suggested;„Is this a scam??"It is always a kind of sad experience whenever hearing that my best intentions are reason for any negative opinions or thoughts.

Thus about how this is possible, .basically very simple;

I am a classic motorcycle dealer since the year 1979 and over the last three decades my main business Investment-Bikes has made nice and rare motorcycles available to customers all over the world, or which activity I have over the years only used one single shipping-company* (*that now has more than 80 years of experience).

For reason that I'm having shipments on a constant/weekly base, buy at the beginning of each year a big amount of shipping-volume against a huge discount (which enables me to ship at Very low cost but on the same go have high quality shipments).

When counting to this that by experience I’ve learned that a serious bike will always attract a serious customer, hich person is also willing to pay a fairly correct price, hen this is how I’m able to make such offers, ake money for a living and have a satisfied customer.

Before listing a bike with no-reserve and free shipping, of course always keep in mind that on a (for me) unfortunate day I can loose a little money on it, ut then of course that’s just life (and on the other hand the advantage for the buyer!)

I always pack bikes myself, nly use certified crates plus new packing-materials anddeliver the crated machines in personat the Antwerp warehouse of the shipping-company (see images),will of course inform you about the complete process of shipping from the beginning on and send you pictures of the process of packing & actual delivery at the port as soon as I'm done.
