I'm air frieghting my bike to Canada next year using Motorcycle Express(they advertise on the Shipping page). They appear to be highly thought of by all who've used them. They will also sort out your bike insurance for Canada and the States! Good luck with your trip  Derek.

Rtw
If you click on the insurance link on the M/Cycle Express site you'll be able to download details of their cover and cost tariff and proposal form.
I'm flying to Toronto mid-May next year and crossing Canada then into the US, then South to Ushuaia,North to Buenos Aires then West RTW to England. If you're in Canada around next Spring/Summer perhaps we'll run into each other(not literally!). Cheers Derek.
