Title: Trying to buy a guzzi in Syracuse New York.
Post by: bluecycle3 on October 26, 2015, 06:49:25 AM: Im looking at a Jackal in Syracuse its about 500 miles from my home in Michigan. I dont know much about shipping one or who to use any info appreciated. I have considered renting a truck and going to get it but between the time and money involved wonder if shipping would be better.

Any and all help appreciated Thanks Greg

Road trip...! :grin:

I personally would go pick it up for a 1000 mile round trip but that's just me.

If that is not in the cards...

Federal Shipping has been very good in my opinion. When you get a quote the price will not change, no surprises. If you are an AMA member they extend a 15% discount as well. Shipping to your door should be reasonable for only 500 miles away.

Give them a call and talk about it or get a quick quote on line.

Best,
Rob
