If you’re going on vacation to another country, don’t worry about leaving your motorcycle behind as every day owners are shipping motorcycles from the USA to their vacation spot so they can have their favorite means of transportation while on vacation.

You may have your choice of transporting your motorcycle by flying it or floating it. Because vacations, as a rule, are for a limited time, most choose flying because it’s quicker. However, you will pay a substantial higher fee for this speed. You can expect to pay at least $500 per the first thousand miles. You can save money if you build your own crate and get it all ready to ship yourself.

Preparations will need to be made before shipping it such as disconnecting battery cables, draining the fuel, etc. Check with the shipping company on the requirements and regulations. You’ll find there are many transport companies to ship for you. It’s just a matter of finding the best company for the money.

If you’re moving to another country, rather than vacationing, you may benefit from a cheaper method such as floating. However, regardless of which method you choose, check with the laws in the country where you’re planning on shipping your motorcycle. If you have to almost completely dismantle your motorcycle before shipping it, make sure you know how to reassemble it or whom you can get to perform this service.

There may be laws regarding licensing your bike, insurance rates and requirements on the size of motorcycle you can ride. You’d hate to spend a large amount of money to ship your motorcycle to another country only to discover you can’t ride it once it gets there or that it would be cheaper to purchase a motorcycle there (if you’re planning on living there).
