A Harley-Davidson with a 1HD chassis number (imported from the USA) is often cheaper in Germany, but can lead to significant problems with insurance in the event of an accident. Since these bikes are often imported and repaired as accident vehicles, insurance companies often do not recognize the actual replacement value (WBW) or restoration costs (WBA), or only do so after lengthy legal disputes. A current valuation report is the only legally binding documentation that proves your actual value (including modifications) and secures your claims without dispute.

The replacement value (current market value) is determined on the basis of a comprehensive market analysis in order to establish the price of a comparable, accident-free Harley-Davidson. We take into account the model, year of manufacture, condition, and current market situation.

Modifications and accessories increase the value, provided they have been carried out professionally and documented. We record all registered modifications, original parts, and attachments in detail. Unprofessional or unauthorized modifications, on the other hand, can reduce the value. The aim is to arrive at a realistic, maximum comparative value that reflects all the individual features of your Harley and safeguards your claims.

Yes—proof is essential for correct consideration in the expert opinion and recognition by the insurance company. You should be able to provide evidence of all structural changes with invoices, photos, or parts certificates (TÜV reports). This is the only way we can ensure that the actual value of your modifications is recorded.
