RE: Moving!

I wanted my nephew's old bike, so I had to have it imported from Canada. I went to the HD website http://www.harley-davidson.com/wcm/C...bmLocale=en_USand was able to find a broker to help with the import and Allied did the shipping. The whole ordeal from Calgary, AB to Richmond, VA (2800 miles plus import) came to $700. My brother-in-law didn't have to do anything but empty the gas tank. They put it on a crate and it arrived fine less than 3 weeks later, even being held up at the border.
You can call 888-haulbikes (from the website) and they'll make it pretty painless. It also included insurance for way more than the value of the bike.

you can get someone to transport it in a trailer for probably a grand or more. Or, if you really want to ship it, go to a harley dealer, tell them you would like a crate a new bike came out of. Its a good wood frame, has a place to mount your front forks too, then you can just have it shipped regular frieght for 300-400 bucks. I used to give crates to people back when I worked at a dealer for that reason. All you'll do it remove the front wheel, bolt it in the crate and make sure all the fluids are empty.
