Any one ever buy a bike out of state, and then have it transported to your home?

Bought mine on eBay from North Carolina... had it shipped to Utah. It took several weeks, but was not an issue since I made the arrangements in January. All worked out fine.

I got mine in Northern Ohio, loaded it up in my truck and drove back home to SW Georgia.

Bought my Heritage Springer off of a photograph after having met the owner in Sturgis. Flew to Denver and took two days riding through some pretty sweeeeet country on my way home to Vegas.

I had all the parts for the first phase of it's transformation laid out on the garage floor before I even took possession. Man it was tough riding her stock!!! Got her home, put her on the lift the next morning and the rubber hit the road 2 1/2 weeks later.

I wonder if I would just be further ahead and rent a U-haul. Traveling from Texas to Michigan. Or is there a reputable company that could handle it

Brought my bike in cincinnati, loaded it on the trailer and trailered it home. But there was 4" of snow on the ground.
