Shipping a bike

[c.c.rider]

If everything goes well this week i will be picking up a 08 K9. I need to have it ship from Minneapolis, MN to Atlanta, GA. If someone could recommend a reputable shipper i would greatly appreciate thanks in advance.

I have used Reliable (big orange trucks) several times and would use them again. No prep ship needed but not the least expensive. I didn't want to risk it from Michigan to Arizona.

Reliable carries a million dollar insurance rider on each of their enclosed hauler loads. They're not no "Shipping Wars" TV outfit.

call ACA and ask for Chris. I dont know if they do that area but they Shipped my SE Roadglide from Utah to Oklahoma for 300. So cheap i was nervous. Arrived just fine not a scratch. reliable wanted like 1200 or so. It cost a lot for those commercials on TV i guess. Besides it was insured if the worse case wreck from hell happened. 970 231 6829

I used U-Ship.com you put in the locations and what it is plus weight and the offers start rolling in. All shippers have feedback and comments that makes it easier to narrow it down. I found a good deal having my K9 shipped from Boston to Central Pa for $400. Just a guy with a dually and a car trailer. He called me when he picked it up and had it here the next morning.

I used uship. you enter weight and location etc at the end they say you should pay this amount on mine it was 560.00 from Michigan to Wyoming. or you could do the bid deal. 560 was fair I said ok then within an hour I had 4 people wanting to do it. I picked the one with a enclosed trailer and the most insurance. they picked it up Friday night and I had it sunday morning.

the picture was yesterday, I pulled the baffles out woot woot. so loud
took my daughter for a ride

GO FOR IT!!! We flew to Vegas and picked up a 09 SE Roadglide and after we finally got out off Vegas we went to Northern California back down thru Arizona and home. It was a trip of a lifetime. would like to find a bike in the Oregon area and fly up there and ride it home.

Uship did my daughters jeep from Chicago to Shreveport La for $650.00 no complaints, I was happy as hell with the results! But why not ask the seller to take the shipping cost and buy you a part of a plane ticket and ride it back?

we used the folks now working for Dedicated Vehicle Transport to move the bikes from the factory to the dealers. I have never had anything but good results from them. I still use them today. PM me if you want the owner's cell number.

I have been hauling cars for about a year on and off. Check what ever you ship real good on both ends!!! It's an ugly industry that puts all liability on the drivers regardless!!

Oh we did haul one bike on the car hauler it was a real pain in the azz for what we got paid!:bang:
