Shipments done by Travellers

We shipped two Royal Enfield's from Australia to Singapore.

It was far too expensive for us to ride the bikes in Singapore, so we used a company called Bikebulance (Daniel 64255333) to tow us to the Malaysian causeway. Be prepared when you get there as you are literally dropped on the side of the road and there is no emergency lane.

the breakdown of our cost were

$240 au to ship the bikes from Australia. the main royal enfield importer gave us two crates.
$353 au for the fee's at the port and warehouse fee's in Singapore.

$403 au for the towing to the Malaysian causeway.

It was going to cost us something like $600 dollars each to ride through Singapore. the main cost being the insurance which was $400 as we are only 24 and 25.

my recommendation would be to ship directly into Malaysia. There are a lot less loopholes to get through.

I contacted Jennifer Perez (Perez y Veliz Asociados) and signed a contract for 900USD + a 120USD insurance. (I paid both before shipping in Guayaquil). She contracted VECO Logistics and they contracted MSL Corporate.
I made myself a semi-crate with 2 pallets and slings (pallets for free and over 20USD for the ropes)
Jennifer kept a motorbike key copy and the windshield. She promised to send it by courrier; she never did it.
After 3 months of delivery time, once in Barcelona harbour, by surprise they told me that I should pay 800USD more! (the receiving company was IFS Logistics)
In order to take the bike I had to pay that.

Please, do not use none of these companies if you dont want to be rip off.

Quite fast (5 weeks in total) with only one ship change in Algeciras, container closed and sealed as we brought the cars, kept closed in WB against a small fee until we arrived, vehicles well strapped, outstanding service in WB (45 min in total including customs clearance and Carnet stamped).

I couldn't get an angola visa so I put the bike on a plan to Lubumbashi.
They wrapped it in cardboard for me. made me empty the acid out of the battery!?!? but a guy in Lubumbashi went and got me some more. Everybody was super helpful.
NOTE! They hand lift your bike out of the plane! so if you have a very heavy bike (1200GS) it could get damaged. I just got a dent on my bash plate which I pushed back out.

pretty good when you're in a pinch.
