Beegreenstrings Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 you need a frieght company. Get a hold of Jst2fst and see who he used to ship his bike to washington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 http://eagleoneexpress.com/Used them a few years ago. Price was good on a bike from arizona. They have the trailers set for just bikes and the fluids don't need to be drained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 you buy my bike, and I'll deliver it for $20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jst2fst Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 I used Forward Air and they did a decent job on shipping mine cost me $550 one one with a wooden crate I provided. You're gonna be looking at the $700 range because you'll have to use one of their metal shipping crates. Their website is www.forwardair.com just click on the motorcycle shipping link and they have a customer service that is very friendly to motorcycle owners.

J_Copeland Posted October 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I am contacting Shippingmasters tomorrow.Quote is 575.00, just need to make sure fuel surcharges aren't extra.If not,I have one at 642.00 and 650.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jst2fst Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Just an FYI on the fuel surcharges make sure you have every document in hand on payment some companies I've heard won't even surrender the bike unless everything is paid for. Heard some pretty bad horror stories on this. good luck on whoever you choose and what type of insurance is offered as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykill Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 2,400 + 650 = 3,050 An 02 Suzuki GSR-R 750 with 3677 miles isn't worth 3,050.00 ?Really ???Uh with that low of miles its not bad at 2400. I just think you could get something newer with the cost of shipping included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
