Still here in NJ, My Uncle gave us his old Moto Guzzi. Well cool but we live in Kali

and this bike is...well...not ready to ride. What would be the best(cheapest) way to

ship a full dress bike? Thanks.

Drop it off closer at my house in PA (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Sorry, no help. I put all mine in the back of the rental truck when I move.

The best way by far to ship a bike is Forward Air, they even include the crate! I have had great luck and they seem to be the least expensive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I shipped a '76 850 Lemans I to Arizona for $400. These bike movers fill up huge 2-level enclosed trailers and drive coast to coast and all points inbetween. Bike is safe and sees no weather. It is simply rolled in and propped up on its kickstand, then strapped in place.

Try www.uship.com they are like Ebay for shipping.
Just make sure you check the bidders feedback.

I just shipped a 22' Donzi through them. No problems.
