The AMA Rag usually has a trucking firm who advertises and they say they have reasonable rates and are insured.
Where is the bike located?
Looks like a super ride.

I just picked up a '99 I/S in NJ and had it shipped to Ohio by: heritagemotorcycleshipping.com
Call Mary Lou, She will do a good job for you.

This is Jeff K we're talking about... He doesn't need to order a super charger, he can make one out of the spare parts he's got laying around his garage I'm sure!  |

My '98 Valk was shipped from PA to Co using Haul Bikes. They use dedicated rigs for MCs and did a good job for me. http://www.haulbikes.com/ |

If you decide to road trip, I would volunteer my services to haul it part way and meet you somewhere. I could put that bike in the back of my truck, trailer my Valk down south and then I could get away and do some riding over the holidays. No cost to you, just give me an excuse to head south. |

Expenses and $25.00 a day. I'll go get it. HECK I wanna go get it for you.
Now the road trip sounds better. And if he's willing to haul it, Win Win.
That is a beautiful bike.

i got some good shipping prices on Uship. I's really hard to nail them down on a date and time for pickup though. $400 isn't bad. it would cost me that in fuel

Almost exclusively motorcycles. Had same problem with schedule though. they picked up bike while heading east and had to travel at least 3 - 4 weeks heading back to west coast. http://www.eagleoneexpress.com/index.html |

Most are quoting 3-4 days delivery.
The problem is on the pickup end. They say they will pick up on the 29-30th. or "around the 3rd" Hard to have the seller schedule his time around that.
