Im lookin at buyin a bike from Qld, just wondering who's had a bike transported ( between Vic and Qld preferably ) and how was your experience, price range i should be lookin at, etc. I'm happy to pick it up from the depot in Melbourne, and the other bike is on the Goldcoast. Does anyone have a mate that might be lookin for a cashie??? Lol, its worth a try, cheers.:D

I have used Fergusons twice now from Brissy to Shep, first time was near $400 this time was $480 but needed pickup from brissy burbs, last was delivered to depot, not exactly cheap but i do get service to Shep which some won't do

thats cheap,i'm trying to get a blackbird motor up to Qld from SA for a mate.weighs about 100kg's and is on a 800x800 pallet.So far he's had quotes of 600-1100 bux from courier companys,might try Krusty,but he probly only does complete bikes.

fergs are ok if its city to city $480 s about right for a bulk carrier i charge about $300 from syd- brissy but only if i can fill the van and trailer up otherwise its not worth my while
havent had anything to do with the rest as they were all closed for a month at xmas when i needed to get an rs250 to cairns last december
davo i tried the guys i know in Vic but as you know we re concentrating on recovery more than anything else
locally i can move stuff [ie inside NSW ]unless im actually travelling interstate like i did for the brissy show [ask muzz he ll give me a ref lol]]

have a word with phill he has a few contacts at Toll and they done favours for me in the past
