Shipping Suggestions

[Goatkart]

I just purchased a bike off ebay a week back and im having it shipped by allied as well. just a little over $500 shipped door to door and you set up the pick-up date.

So far so good!

damn... i did a quick quote... they wanted 851 to ship from tony to myself...


highest by a couple hundred for quotes ive gotten...

haulbikes and jc...(listed above in thread) so far are the two cheapest at around 600 bucks residential address to residential address (door to door)....

I will leave you with this: You get what you pay for (usually). Would suck to pay a grand to fix the bike because you saved a couple hundred on shipping....

Goat -
Forward Air shipped my '06 LE from VA to West Des Moines. I couldnt have been happier when I saw the crate it was shipped in and how the guys who dropped it off helped me open it up to make sure there was nothing wrong with it BEFORE I signed the paperwork.

If you get the bike to DSM and need help getting it to Ames let me know...Although going to Ames is against my best wishes GO HAWKS!

You may want to call Eagle 1 Motorcycle transporters 425-988-3127 These guys are all avid riders and treat each bike like its their own,nascar style hauler that will do up to 20 bikes. last time I checked it was $635 from anywhere in lower 48 to anywhere same. Back when I was rebuilding bikes full time, they did 14 bikes for me, picked up at my house and delivered door to door as long as the street would allow semis, all arrived without a single complaint
