Jorge,

I used Keyboard - for shipping from Charlotte to N. Illinois - I paid approx. $500.00 - which was the best rate I could find.

I've used Eagle One Express, and others have used Keyboard, both with very good results.  Here's an older thread on this topic...

Jorge, since you're doing comparison shopping, if you don't mind, please post what you find out? :nixweiss:

There are other things that come into play besides price......like how long is it going to take them to have a guaranteed delivery date, etc.

I do not have personal experience with this shipper but a buddy gave me this link a while ago.  http://www.uship.com/motorcycles/

It might be worth an inquiry?

cheers!

Timely topic... I've got 2 bikes I've got to get from Seattle to Colorado in Jan. Keeping my eye out for an enclosed trailer... but if I don't find anything, I may just ship them, and write the cost off on my taxes.

Please share what you find out!

Thanks!!
