Comments: 

Suraj has a lot of mixed reviews online. I was very cautious of him as a result and slightly paranoid about everything he offered, but it all seemed to check out. Price seemed about right to get the bike to where I wanted, and he took care of everything on the customs and legal side (that's what you pay for).

My bike was 140 kg + gear + crate, which totalled about 250 kg.

The measurements for the crate were slightly off but we got it in ok, and the bike arrived a couple of days later in KL, having first flown to Bangkok. Note that I didn't have to do anything for the bike in Bangkok, it came straight to KL as far as I was concerned.

Be aware that when the bike arrives in KL you will have to go to MasKargo at the airport to claim it. This can take a long time as there are various security procedures and long distances to walk since you don't have your bike yet! The first 30 hours of storage is free but from 30 hours to 72 hours there is a holding charge of RM0.30/kg/day, which increases to RM1/kg/day after 72 hours.

Breakdown of quote as below:
KTM/Kulalumpur
1. Airline charge : Npr240/kg
2. Air waybill fee: Npr400/ shipment
3. Airline DGR fee: Npr9000/shipment
4. Nepal custom wages : Npr 3500/bike
5. Crate charge : Npr 8000/bike
6. Our service charge: 9999/ bike
