One of our main concepts as a company is to work with and support our customers. We will honor the warranty internationally, there will just be additional shipping expenses (due to the additional shipping expenses of mailing international ). We haven't discussed a trade in policy or anything for motors that no longer fall under factory warranty because the motors haven't even been out 6 months, but like I said our main focus is to work with our customers and so we will figure that situation out when it arises The motors are fully rebuildable so I think we have good options.
