Hallo Manzini,
we are planing to go to Chile with two bikes BMW650gs at the beginning of Oktober. We might be able to delay our trip. How much would it cost for two bikes in your container? What ist included an how do we get the bikes out of the custom?

Greetings Samby

container

hola samby
i am charging 350€ per bike.this is transport only.
to get it out of custom is not a big problem.either in san antonio with a custom agent,if necesary or in valpo might use the people from villa kunterbunt.
might also do it on my own,depending how cooperative the custom agent of my friend.
for more info send me your email-direction via pm
all the best geri

Hi Geri,

I might be interested on one place, where will the container be, Aachen or Antwerp? There's no need to box the bike right?

Cheers,
Joe

Hello,

Just saw youre add here. I have been getting quotes the last few days for a shippment to south america, sadly they are all out of my league.
Is the Container allready full ? We are a couple from switzerland and are planning to start out journey next year @ autumn. We would like to ship 2 bikes, 650 ccm so rather smaller bikes .
Can I ask which company you are using ?

thanxs and happy new year, Demian

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.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive.
