The best option if you want the fine detail is to read our attached blog post. But were we to do this exact shippment knowing what we do now, the only thing that we would change is having a customs broker arranged in Mexico before hand. We were unaware this was a requirement until we were in Veracruz trying to recieve our bike. This cost us a few extra days, and at that point we were itching to get back on the road. Also we had learned first hand how long shipping by sea can take. The original ETA was 38 days, and it turned into almost 3 months. Have lots of time to spare. 

The customs broker we used in Veracruz was Enrique Reyes Hidalgo y Asociados S.C. Emparan 74, Veracruz Centro, 91700 Veracruz, Ver., Mexico Phone: +52 229 931 4067 (He also spoke English which was very helpful).
