Hi from Berkshire.
« 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.

Welcome veefour like your name nice one.Sorry I can not help you out with transport but I do see a lot on eBay that will transport your bike for a quid a mile but with to days fuel costs who knows what it is now.All the best with your bike and look forward to some photos.

Hi David welcome to the forum, when you get a firm to transport your bike check they are fully insurured for damage to your bike
Good luck and hope to see some pictures soon
