There are a Cpl of bike transport comps BUT they charge like wounded bulls . Highland transport is good around 200 is normal . Just a idea freight charges are steep . For me to bring a Isuzu 300 at 5.5 mtrs bumper to bumper is $1700 each way empty , then add cabin for driver now you can see why freight charges are so steep . I'm coming over in Dec if its in bits I might be able to help . Iain

     Yes we looked at that but they still wanted $87 each way plus $ 60 for the bike then there was only One
     Ferry running so you had to stay over Night so add  a night's Accomadation for 2 people..
     The person i bought the bike from was prepared to take it to the Ferry and put it on for me but they wanted
     $460.00 just for the Bike
     But thanks to Iain Cameron all has been Arranged .
