How to ship my bike from Honduras to Europe?

Hi everybody,

I travelled 3 months in South- and Centroamerica and I had to return urgently to Switzerland (death of my father).
Now my motorbike remained in Honduras and I would like to ship it back to Europe. The companies I contacted don't have connections with Honduras.
Can someone help me? I could ship it from Puerto Cortes by seafreight or from San Pedro Sula with air cargo.

In the worst case, I could return to Honduras and drive my bike to Mexico or the USA. My intention was to go till Montréal in Canada, but I don't have enough time left.

Thanks for a quick answer.

Christian

I have offered my home to store bikes. I live in Yuma, Arizona, near where California and the two Mexican states of Sonora and Baja Norte meet.

My fees are reasonable--I won't charge anyone!! The only catch is Yuma does not have a major airport (the flights only seem to go to Phoenix as connecting flights on regional airlines), and the Amtrak train only runs 3 days a week through the city (goes west to east and east to west--starts [and ends] in L.A. Again, a little inconvenient to get out of Yuma, but very convenient to the San Luis border crossing to get into Mexico.

Sorry to read about your father...

Hi. Thank you very much for the information. I will try to contact them in San Pedra Sula. I hope it is also a serious company in Honduras :-)
Muchas gracias!
