I don't know how many of you are former military or have shipped their bikes overseas, but I'm headed over there again. Last time I had them place my baby between my 2 beds which worked out, but I'd rather have a custom crate this time. Is there any good priced place that will build a shipping crate for your bike?

I was moved under a corporate account using United Van Lines. They have contract craters who build crates for them for these kinds of moves. I had them ship a 600F2. I saw the bill that they charged my company. It was $1700 just for the crate, not the including the shipping. This was clearly a hose job since it was a corporate account. I guess my suggestion is to contact moving companies and see if they can give you some names of craters and see what you can negotiate.

Go to honda and ask for a crate. They may just help you out pretty easily.
