Shipping nightmare
Always go by air as port fees and delays in shipping outweigh any savings. Go via Canada and check out Air Canada Cargo as they have been offering some great deals recently. If you need a crate speak to a BMW dealer as the newest ones are cardboard over a wooden frame and easier to unpack and cheap.
If you are bring the bike back then you should avoid the import fees (or at least claim them back on return). If you plan to sell the bike in Europe then its best to by something in the UK as selling a US bike will be troublesome and there is plenty to choose from if you look at MCN (weekly bike paper in UK).
