|

Hey guys,
Sorry for being off topic but I have a shipping dilemma, and alot of you seem very knowledgeable on this kind of stuff.
I want to have a motorcycle shipped from Florida to Indiana. The trouble is, it needs to be picked up from a dock, and then sent to my house. I won't be able to be there to oversee the whole operation.
My question is- Does anyone know what company does this kind of thing, and if so what does it cost?
Thanks,

Can you have it shipped to Savannah Ga instead I'd be glad to pick it up for you. I could take it to whatever shipping company you like after that. _________________ 81 924 N/A

Hey guys,
The issue is I am having it shipped from the bahamas through a freight company called Betty K. Their nearest drop off point is Jacksonville, FL. Im thinking it may just be cheaper for me to drive down there once I get home. I just learned my family has a trailer I could borrow.
I have been working down here as an apprentice mechanic for a friend's father. I've picked up alot of new tricks and stuff, can't wait to get back to the 924. I'll have that thing back together quicker than ever!
Here is a little eye candy for you guys!
ps- thanks for the offer Mad electrician! I'll keep that in mind. _________________ 1978 924 NA

Here is what's waiting on me at home
Balanced and lightened, and a knifed edged crank. Also have the Euro high compression pistons. _________________ 1978 924 NA

Both the bike and that engine are flipping sweet. I'm highly jealous I've been without a motorcycle four years. _________________ 81 924 N/A
