mc28 on the way from Cali

Reserved a crate from forward-air. You have to reserve one(online) if you don't build your own, and then they let you know when one is available. We were shooting for a week after christmas, but a crate came available, so the previous owner took it down. Forward Air(not by air, by the way!?) says about four days from SanFrancisco to Orlando. Not cheap, but I couldn't drive out there to get it any cheaper. Or fly and rent a truck...so, considering that, not a bad price. The only downfall about this company is that they don't ship door to door. They ship from depot to depot. We have friends in Orlando and its not much of a drive, so it'll be a good excuse to cruise up to see them and pick up the bike. Anyway, Bunch O' stuff for mc16 ON EBAY RIGHT NOW...under nsr250. Will keep everyone up to date. Cliff

Cliff how much did Foward Air quote you, over $600 ? I'm using these guy http://www.eagleoneexpress.com/about_us.htm, no crate required & no prep, they only ship bikes, nothing else. From San Fransico To Massachusett $590. Delivery is longer only becasue they travel all over picking-up and delivery bikes cross country. But they are first class, the trailer is set-up in 2 levels and they handle your bike like it their own, not like a box of whatever. Check their site. I had a quote from Allied trucking of over $800.

Oh, this is door to door service not depot pick-up. If it's not too late you should give them a call, might save you some money ?

Thanks Jeff. the cost is 519.00 I felt comfortable with forward air, their containers are all enclosed and placed inside a semi trailer. plus the 4 days from coast to(almost) coast. But, your'e right, it would be nice door to door. The one thing that continues to be bothersome is that "Forward-Air" ISN'T by "AIR". the girl on the phone stated that the trucks they use...ride on "air" suspension!!???......freaks! I guess that's what you call "marketing" I'll let you guys know how it turns out. Cliff
