I bought the bike brand new from a dealership in Long Prairie, MN and needed to get it shipped from the dealer to my residents in Indianapolis, IN. I contacted a dozen shipping companies to get quotes and most were between $400-600 to do the shipping. Browns Transport had originally quoted me $400 and said they could pick the bike up the same which was on a Wednesday and drop the bike off that Friday. I had two other shippers that had quoted me $300 and $325 but were not able to pick the bike up until the following week so I called Jeremell back and he worked with me on the price getting it down to $335 which was slightly more than the two lower bids I had but it got the bike picked up the same day so it was worth it to me to pay a few bucks more.

The bike was picked up by Polar King on a long flatbed open tractor trailer, and was tied down with ratchet straps and a Canyon Dancer motorcycle bike tie down strap across the handlebars so it was secured very safely. The only recommendation I'd have for the shippers is to maybe use a wheel chock such as a condor or baxley brand chock just for extra support side to side and it would have been nice if the bike had a motorcycle cover on it during shipping because it was extremely dusty/dirty when it arrived from MN to IN but I guess that is to be expected from being on an open carrier as opposed to being hauled in an enclosed trailer. Overall I was very please with the shipment and would recommend Browns Transport and Polar King Trucking for your next shipment needs.

Jeremell was great to work with and the communication was great also, I'd recommend giving Jeremell a call next time you need something shipped.

Thanks Again.
