Title: Hi from Berkshire.
Post by: veefour on November 03, 2012, 09:11:09 AM
Hello, my name is David & i have just recently purchased a CB550f. My main problem now is the need to get it transported from Essex down to Newbury. Can any forum member recommend a reliable reasonably priced bike transport company. I have already contacted 3 well advertised firms who have'nt even bothered to reply to my emails etc. >:( so i need someone who actually can do the job !! I am looking forward to getting the bike having previously owned a lovely prestine CB550k 25 yrs ago. When i do eventually get the bike i will post a couple of pics.
