Motorbike shipping from Ulan Bator to South Korea
Hi all, forum newbie here.
I just finished a solo roadtrip from Valladolid (Spain) to Ulan Bator (Mongolia) on a Transalp 700, and am looking to ship the bike anywhere to South Korea and fly there myself. Has anyone done this before? (I checked the shipping database, but nothing came up). Can anyone recommend any particular company?.
I'll hit M&M Transport logistics services tomorrow and see what they cost (saw the recommendation in another thread), and I've been quoted 220EUR for the crate at the Oasis guesthouse.
Is it worth looking into air freight only?, or should I also look for companies willing to put it on the transiberian highway to Vladivostok and on a boat to Korea from there?
Before someone suggests riding to Vlad myself, I don't have a tourist/business Russian visa, and timing the ferry with a transit one might be a bit tricky (also, last time I had to get a Russian transit visa, in Astana, it took me 10 days, so I'm not too keen on repeating the experience).
Thanks for any info you can provide.
