How do I take my motorcycle to Spain with me?

#1 Unread post by travelenbike »

Hey there,
I am currently in Denver though I am moving to Madrid Spain in June, the problem is my beautiful 2005 GSX-R750 with less than a 1000 miles in mint condition, the problem is I can't get what I am looking for it, if I were to sell it ($8000) so I figure I might as well take it with me....... But I have no idea how to even go about looking for carriers to Spain. I have been running searches online but don't know who is any good, if any one has any input as far as:

How to take a motorcycle from the US to Spain, then how I would get insurance. My first prolem is just getting the bike there.

Any feed back is greatly appreshated.
Thanx alot a rider in need.

You might have to just cut your losses. It might be too much of a hassle to ship it. I would try carriers that ship cars overseas. They would be the best starting point. My brother has been living in Germany on and off with the military for several years. He has never taken anything more that his personal belongings because of the hassle and expense.

Tech BMW moved to Italy a while back. Not sure if he took his bike, but I think maybe he did. Try to send him a PM for a response that might help. Good luck!

Cheers,
