Swap USA for Europe
I have a 2018 Honda Goldwing (DCT tour) in the USA and would like to swap for a similar motorcycle to ride Europe again. I have swapped motorcycles before to ride Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

Bike swap USA for planet earth.
I also have a dual sport if that interests anyone. 2018 Honda CRF250L Rally.
I would also consider a swap to almost anywhere on the planet that I considered safe to ride.

I've got a VFR800X Crossrunner that might do the trick. In Estonia, so easy access to Nordkapp/Norwegian coast.
Which part of the US are you in?

Bike Swap USA to Estonia or where
I live in Beckley, West Virginia. it really doesn’t matter when it comes to accessing my bikes. I can get the bike to almost any location on the east cost for anyone that wants to swap.
I think your Honda would work well for me to tour on and I would love to come to Estonia. I toured Norway on an old (98) Yamaha Fazer in 2019 that I purchased in Germany.
Message me if you would like to work out a deal, I’ve got some experience swapping and I have references if you need them.

Bike swap to wherever
My best girl toured the Wild West with me in 2019 on the Goldwing.

I would love to come and visit you again. Thanks again for your great hospitality and for tour guiding me.
If you ever get the urge to come to America just let me know and you could tour around on the Goldwing, two up if Andrea wanted to come also. If you avoid the largest cities it’s pretty tame really, compared to what you might hear from the media.
I have access to more bikes here too, if needed. I only have two now , myself, ( the Goldwing plus a Honda CRF250L Rally for a little off road stuff).
Cheers
Joe

Hi again Larry Joe, did you make a deal with the guy wanting to swap the Honda in Estonia? That would be a nice swap.
