Hi Nicola, sorry only just seen this post. Yes we did use the Port Klang option - we went through Wendy Choi in Seoul and shipped out from Busan Port which took about 10 days. Just make sure you control the crate size at time of building as we got caught out with a huge crate.
We did not use an agent in Port Klang - it was all very straightforward However everything is very spread out and we were very lucky to have local help driving us hither and thither. Customs was open till 4.30 on a Friday for the paper clearance and we managed to get the bikes out of the port on the Saturday morning - they shut around 1200 or 1300.
1. Make sure you get your Malaysian insurance from the MAA (Malaysian Automobile Association) in Klang (the city not the port) in advance of collecting your bikes as customs will demand this before clearance.... I dont think any other insurance company will cover foreign bikes...
2. You also need an ICP (International Circulation Permit) before clearance and you get this in Putajaya a city south of KL. We were given 3 months free which coincided with our visa length. You need to get your insurance BEFORE you do this. The only other place you can get this is way up in the north near the Thai border.
Will get the addresses for you tomorrow.....
