Yes, I have. What would you like to know?? How deep the water is? Does King Neptune charge Tolls? How much it costs to fill the tank at an underwater petrol station and are there no seaway speed restrictions??

About $800 to $1100 depending from where to where and size and wieght.

check out these guys - I haven't used them but had them recommended.

Austin’s International Trading Services in Sydney - www.austin.com I think it was but should be able to find them on Google anyway.

cheers

I used Austins and found them very good and helpful. Very experienced and can take care of a lot of the- "traps for young players". The price DJ quoted is on the mark,BUT, if you are going to keep the bike here you will charged GST on the combined total of the bike and the transport cost. Say bike was $5000 and freight was $1200,then GST would be calculated on $6200; ie, an extra  $620 pesos- but you can get creative with the cost of the bike etc!

Thanks I will look into Austins. Surly Neptune wouldnt charge a toll. Maybe he has lost control & its gone to the privat sector.

Combined value? I just put the valve at a close estimate of what I thought everything was in the crate.

Yep, pretty much make it up as you go, but keep it within the realms of reality. I only know about the second hand one I brought over- you will be asked for an invoice/receipt of purchase for the bike, and that is where the "creative" part comes in.
