I need to ship my motorbike from Japan to Europe
Hello traveller world!
At the end of August/beginning os September 2017 I will end my trip in Japan And I really need to find the way to ship my motorbike back to Europe (south of Europe will be fine I dont care were) Anyone have some company to suggest? I send a lot of E-mails but the most of the companies doesnt answer! I read the HU links of shipping company but most of them are just USA only... With the rest of them I send mails... a lot of them. So any help is something! Thanks! You can private mail me if you want! :thumbup1::mchappy: |
Try ARMACUP JAPAN K.K. An Expert in Shipping Used Car >
You may have to telephone if they do not reply to e-mails. If you telephone the companies that did not reply to your e-mails, you may be more successful. They may have mistaken your English e-mail as spam because they mostly deal with Japanese customers. This is a common problem. Also try Interfracht. |

Just to ad my story about shipping my DR650 from Tokyo to Rotterdam, Holland 2014 ...for a wooden box price was 500 US then freight 1200 US an then
at port cost to release bike was 500 Euros..so I am not going to use sea freight air lift is more dollars but no hassle and you get bike in 2 days. safe ride |

You can save on price of a box by using a used crate from a motorcycle dealer. However, you have to figure out how to get it to the port in that case. Still less than the 500 dollars to have someone else do it for you. From what I have heard, air shipmen from Japan is horribly expensive. I have seen quotes for more than the price of a new motorcycle. Something about large quantity of precision electronics shipped by air out of Japan taking up most of the air cargo space available out of Japan (less coming in, so air TO Japan is not too expensive). |

Would love to hear how you get on. I am also in Japan looking to ship my motorcycle in future. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
i also search a transport from japan to europe. nearly the same date as KameOn. I have planned to leave Japan around the 16. August 2017
my current solution is with DHL. They take care about everything, I just have to give up my bike at the local partner. But it's realy expensive. Perhaps there is a better possibility for transport here. |
sorry for my silence, I am still working on a solution for you. It's really difficult as Japan is not very common for the Transportation of vacation-bikes and the area is really expensive. anyway I work on it

vacation-bikes

this is how people in the shipping industry call travelers bikes now :( .... ?c? |
Vacation Bikes. ... traveler Bikes. .. different names for the same meaning. Important for you, that I know what you need, Hm?
Don't see anything bad on my word - but if so, let me know Gesendet von meinem SM-T530 mit Tapatalk |
I will use the service from In Time (Intime Motorradtransporte weltweit - Transporte national und international) It cost only one third of the price from DHL. They transport my motorcycle from Tokyo to the German border near Basel. I will report on this later in detail.

just let me know a few days in advance when you expect to arrive in Japan to coordinate with my Partner in Tokyo
best regards Olaf |

Hi all, I'm looking for the same need this year , mid-August, to ship my bike from Japan to Europe (Ideally France, but can be anywhere in Europe in fact). I'm planning a road-trip from my home in France to Tokyo through Europe, Russia, Mongolia, and will arrive in Japan by ferry from Vladivostok.
I red that some of you guys did such a shipping from Japan to Europe already, and I would be more than interested for some feed-back about the way it has been made, costs, port departure in Japan and Port arrival in Europe, etc... I've today first contacts - thanks to Chris here - with Interfracht (I'll have a RoRo quotation tomorrow normally) and James Cargo (first email). Thanks in advance ! |
Hello all,
I shipped my bike from Tokyo to Bremerhaven/Germany via Interfracht. They have a branch in Tokyo, have best service and are very reliable. and the best fact: they don´t over charge nor do they charge additional costs while the shipment is in progress, as many have experienced when shipping their bikes. One price fits it all, it was 1300 € all in! Best experience, and no, I am not related to this company in any way!:nono: |
