I am going to Thailand to stay with my family for awhile, I need information about shipping my motorcycle. Prices or suggestions on shippers and what taxes I must pay and what to expect. Thank you.

A quick search of Thai visa should answer your question in detail and will hopefully dissuade you in attempting this. Just dont do it, plenty of bikes here to purchase if your serious about hurting yourself.

The short answer is that you cant bring your bike here.

cheers

It is expensive and difficult to import a bike to Thailand. To make a long story short: buy a second hand bike in Thailand; there are dealers which can get you practically any bike you like. They know which port to use and whom to pay there. Be sure your bike has all registration papers in order (which will cost about 60'000 B more).

You may want to look up the 'Bangkok rider' forum (use google to find it) . This forum is full of motor bike enthusiast, mostly farangs but some japonese and Thais as well.
