Default Motorcycle Shipping - Recommendations Please

I'm attending Sturgis next year (2015). I want to ship my bike(round trip) as I'll have limited time and not enough time to ride out there. I'm in Florida.

Any recommendations and prices to expect?

Thanks,
Greg

There's a guy that advertizes in Wheels on the Road and other S Fl bike mags who arranges the whole thing, darned if I know what his name is, but you could check out or call Wheels on the Road (which you can pick up at dealers).

I've used .... http://www.motorcycleshippers.com/ a couple of times, last time I talked to the driver and they told me that http://www.motorcycleshippers.com/ contracts the shipping out.
The company that actually shipped the bike was ....
http://www.keyboardmotorcycleshipping.com/ ... they told me next time to call them directly, and it would probably save me some money because it cuts out the middle man
