Shipping my Harley Davidson to US - Europe

Got following rates for my March 24th sailing from Inchon, Korea to Long Beach, CA. USA basis L2 x W 0.9 x H 1.5 meters 2.7 CBM 320KG, on Wallenius Wilhelmson Ro-Ro line. A global service provider vis a vis Europe - Middle East-Asia - Japan - USA - Europe and South America.
Nice thing about this carrier is that they have been around a long time. A respected Scandinavian line. No frigging packing of bikes. Quick turn around at the port. No extra charges of hauling containers and port handling charges. Very cheap. 1/2 the price of 20ft box some cases 1/3 .
From US to Asia is much cheaper since they come almost empty, outside of US military and John Deere exports to load up GM, Kia, Hondas and Toyotas.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
