PE 250 Parts and Shipping From UK
« on: September 20, 2020, 11:42:38 AM »
Hi All:
I  am looking for a PE 250 parts lot or a parts bike to get an economical head start on my 1934 basket case. I think I might have found a qualifying bike in the UK but I wonder how to economically get it from there to Western Canada.
Does anybody have any ideas? ---- or parts, or parts bike to add to my collection?

I shipped a from from London to Arizona and it wasn't cheap. It's not the weight, but the size that gets you on something like that.
I ended up using trans global express.

Please let me know how you make out. I would like to find a GTV rolling chassis for a project, have gathered up ‘most’ of the engine for a 1948.
My plan, prior to -, was a spring holiday to Italy to attend the big swap meet in the north and look for a roller, disassemble and pack it up, bring it back as extra luggage in boxes. A recent article in Classic Bike detailed a fellow disassembling and old BSA and fitting it into several big suitcases. I think if I were to spring for a business class ticket there is much larger weight and number of suitcase allowance.

I sure will.
I like the idea of excess baggage.
