  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

How much for shipping?

I'm not sure but I have seen numbers as low as $300 for coast to coast ... $3000 is awfully low priced ...
 
Sounds like a good deal. Sure they've been well cared for all be it "ridden"! I usually throw a shipping bid request up on U-Ship and see what kind of responses I get if there's a bike I'm interested across state lines. You could get lucky at $300, but From CA to WV I'm guessing you'll be closer to $500 or so. Shipped a bike I sold from AZ to MI for $350 last winter for reference.
 
Huskymax I am a carrier, I haul freight, cars, bikes ect mainly in the 11 western. Expect to pay up to $500 to ship a bike to the east coast. Please do NOT USE USHIP. I say that cause I am a legal insured carrier. Uship does not verify that any carriers are legal or have insurance. I would either contact a broker in your area, or you could try posting on this forum http://www.autoexpeditor.com/, wanting a bike shipped. On that forum there are several guys from the east coast.
I was just in ziptys racing shop the other day picking up my suspension, Lots of nice bikes in there. Good luck.
 
I had a bike shipped two years ago from Canada to Kansas for $237. And one from Ohio to Kansas for $250. If you go business to business on some of the small truck lines that do LTL's you can get excellent deals. You just have to call around.
 
iv done more then a few,
what i charge on my Fleabay auctions..
100.00 crating fee, and drop off to a dock of a trucking company of choice in my metro area.
or.
crating, and dock to dock shipping most US cities, for 350.00 flat rate.
avoid anyone who has never boxed up a motorcycle, youll be sorry.
foward air is pricey, but you can rent one of crates they offer. will cost you a bit more then 350.00.
Foward air has pretty much priced themselvs out of the motorcycle game.
years ago, i only used them i crated them and dropped them off, 3 to 4 a week.
frieght is a price per 100 pounds rate...depending on whats in the box and a declared value.
they charged me 200.00 from Co, to NJ, then the next week same box, from Co, to Mi, was 400.00
i loaded that box back on my truck and found a new trucking company...
also...AVOID FRIGHTQUAOTE.COM big rip off scammers. no such thing as pre paid feight with them.
paid in advanced to get a Husky from FL to CO. took then 2 mos, to get it here, and 3 mos later they sent me a bill for 300.00 for added fuel cost..
told em to take me to court!!!
never again..
Roadway. Yellow, and others will give you a per 100 rate, IF YOU ARE THE SHIPPER.
not if you are the one getting the bike..
can be frustrating if your dealing with someone who hasnt shipped a bike.
you may do better with a private hauler, some guys do the picker thing and will hual it back for 200.00 or 300.00 to help with fuel costs..
had a couple guys that did this Co, Nv, NM, TX, Ca, ect. havnt heard from them in a while.
