    Thumbs up

    I got Mianfreight to get bike from auckland to palmerston North cost me 175.00 i picked it from the depo
    Exellent service great price well loked after they wraped it in protective carpet over the tank on a pallet
    was really impressed getting a vfr 750 Moved next then vt 500 from wellington been qouted 193.00 for the vt 500
    You need the dimisions of the bike weight etc , where the pick up is from etc

    its the only trucking company i found that do it your need make sure no petrol is in the tank also for saftey reasons

    Cheers - firstly asked for pick up from Gisborne specifically I've used mainfreight before, they were crap IMO, delayed and bike arrived with damage - nzmotorcyclemovers.co.nz are way better or biketranz.co.nz

    The problem is no one seems to go to Gisborne to pick up.. Looking for a way to get the bike picked up from Gisborne and delivered to Dunedin.

    tried captain transporter, jeffs, nzmotorcycle movers, biketranz, motorcyclemovers.co.nz so far, can't find any more companies on the google machine.. wondering if there are anymore?

    If you're not in a huge panic, I'll be up in Gissy in the semi near future and will happily put it on my ute and bring it to Welly for collection from one of the transport companies.

    biketranz all the way. I have used them a number of times with no issues. not the cheapest I dont think, but I dont care about that if they arrive undamaged, when they say.

    Not even close. But the way I read it is he's tried biketranz, and they don't collect from Gissy. So the fact they did a good job for old rossi boy from Napier, is kinda not that much help.

    might be a nw thing: they took one of my bikes to butt-fuck nowhere a year or so back (New Plymouth)

    ..........waiting for the hit squads from New Plymouth to arrive on my doorstep

    Cheers mate, that is a generous offer. I have had a little bit of luck with nzmotorcyclemovers.co.nz they recon they are doing a rare run to Gisborne Tues 6th dec and could pick up the aprilia for me. Fingers crossed it works out. If not I could be sending you a message to take you up on the offer haha. But I'm up in Taupo in 4 weeks anyway so there is plan B of riding it somewhere myself.

    Yeah no worries mate. Dennis of NZ Motorcycle Movers is a gc and will do a good job if he goes, he does all of our collections and the deliveries we don't do personally.

    But yeah...if you're stuck just sing out. I've loaded hundreds of bikes and driven thousands of km's and haven't fucked one yet...so your baby will be safe with me.

    Thanks Pete, sounds Brilliant. Much appreciated. - I'll find out more tmoro from NZ Mcycle Movers if we can get something co-ordinated.

    Haha having a laugh at the napier/gisborne being the same city comment?! haha same city with a couple of hours inbetween maybe.

    But yea, fingers crossed for NZ Motorcycle Movers helping out.

    Cheers, Kai
