Hi, Paul,
Good to see a new post in the Middle East section - it was looking a bit sad.
It is currently extremely difficult for UAE bikers to get the necessary 3-day transit visa across Saudi to get into Jordan & Syria (and then onto Turkey and Europe).
Since you're in the fortunate position of already being in Saudi, why not ride straight out into Jordan and then to wherever takes your fancy. Then you don't have to spend money on shipping, at least not until you want to get the bike back 'home'.
Iran is also worth visiting.
Also worth considering... the delights of the UAE, followed by a ferry to Iran and then northwards. NB Iranian carnet deposit can be offputting!
Regards,
Stephano
