Anyone know who will ship a complete front end from an M2. I'm talking bars down to the wheel, back wheel also. Any suggestions would be great. has to go from MI to CA. Should I break the front end down and box it or put it on a pallet? Anyone with any suggestions, let me know.

Thanks

Your best bet would be to ship the forks and bars seperately from the wheels. Take the bars off and lay them on top of the forks. Then ship the wheels in another box. Unless the tires are real new I would suggest you take the tires off as they are really heavy and add about $25 to the shipping cost plus the size of the box almost doubles. By doing this you can use UPS with no problem.

New tires on the wheels, part of the deal. What's a guy supposed to do? I know, I can let the air out, yeah, that'll help!

Put in a big box or strap to a pallet and take to Forward Air, rate in only $45/100# assuming your close to Detroit and your buyer in near a terminal also
www.forwardair.com for terminal locations
good luck
