Comments: 

Greame Lee is a really good man. We recommend him very high. He really know what he does and there were no "surprise" in the end. ;-)
From the first contact to the departure of your bike it is possible to do it easy in a week. He give you all information you will need. He know nice guys from Dangerous Goods. No problems all the way.

You will use a crate and here he can't help you, but when we were in Darwin, there were a mount of old used crates at te local Kawasaki Dealer, he also have a big business with Quads. With this information you will find him. Our crate costs 30 AUS$.

Departures from Darwin to K.L. were every saturday.

But there is one problem: All the cargo-airlines have a stop in Singapure and the bureaucracy there must be terrible. We know, it now... Because there was one copy of a paper left they stopped our bike for 5 days! Without telling anybody.
So we wait in K.L. and nobody know what is happened with our bike.... In the end Graeme Lee sort it all out for us and then it was easy to pick up the bike at the airport in K.L.

The pickup was only 14 US$ and a thing from 3 hours. The airport-staff were very helpful and friendly. Nobody try to get some extra-money from us. It was great!

The costs:

1,55 AUS$ per Kilo
15 AUS$ Airwaybill Fee
185,90 AUS$ MAA Miscellaneus - DUE Agent
253,80 AUS$ MCC Miscellaneus - DUE Carrier
180 AUS$ Dangerous Goods

14 US$ in K.L. for Customs Inspection
