Safely Shipping A Big Bike

[LivinLOS]

Theres a bike I am interested in, but its in the north and I am in the south..

I would be more interested in it if I could get it shipped down to me, realistically to fly up, buy it and drive it back will be a couple of days and maybe 10k.

I have heard of bikes being 'posted' around Thailand but that was only scooters.

Any way to move a larger bike without it getting beaten up ??

Post it! Use the Post Office "Logipost" service.

If you're in Chiang Mai go to the Post Office & check out the system. Your bike doesnt go in a mail bag with all the packages & letters. They have posters advertising the service Logispost in the Mae Ping P.O. The bike goes in a "container truck. " I know guys who have posted 250cc bikes from Chiang Rai to Phuket, another guy a 750cc bike from Udon to Bangkok. Its cheap & it works. So check it out if you're serious, as the tip is serious.
