Motorcycle Express
I shipped my bike to Portugal last year using Motorcycle Express, Motorcycle Express - Ship Your Bike. It was super easy. The only hitch is I had to ship from Canada, as the U.S. TSA considered bikes hazardous material. This will be easier for you than me, had to ride from Georgia to Toronto.
The process could not have been easier. Cost? $1,500 give or take (my ticket was extra). I watched it get loaded on the plane from the gate and then I boarded the plane. Picked the bike up at customs the next day, got there on Sunday they were closed.
They ship to lots of European cities, not sure about Athens but, if you have to ride through Europe to get there that'll be your tough luck
Hope this helps,
Matt
