I recently got a quote of $1100 all up California to Sydney from Darren Cheney at mid life crisis imports. There are others also, can't remember one that I was recommended. Yours will be more as Michagan is a long way from California.
Bultaco Metralla, Matador MK 5, Montadero mk2, El Bandido model 18,plus lots of bits and two Honda XR's 250,350.

thanks but I think im going to pass on this one now the ebay seller want to charge 100.00  dollars a week storage ,as soon as the auction finishes, plus after 120 days ,if its not picked up he says he will keep the storage money and resell the bike again ,even if its paid for both bike and storage

Firko on this forum seems to have imported quite a few bikes from the USA. Perhaps PM him and ask for his contacts in the US and views on the best way to get the bike to AUS

I hadn't read this thread. Why don't you call Lloyd. That's what he is doing now. Organising freight from all over the States to here in Oz. He has some reliable contacts and has been shipping cars and bikes.
