By BlueBull

I have a Suzuki Boulevard 1800 CC done 11000 Kms and I want it to be shipped to India ( Bangalore ). Can anyone help me in :

1. Finding the right service
2. Understanding the documentation and legalities
3. Do's and Don'ts and any special points to be kept in mind.

Any inputs would be highly appreciated.

Depends on the CC..I'm sure they will workout the duty themselves irrespective of what you tell them. jst Check the official customs website.

But how much can they ask for? Can this be done by paying someone?

Moti - I dont know why you have to waste yours and my time by posting such a stupid timewaster post.

For asking the frieght company I need to know which one is the best smartguy. I dont ship bikes to India everyday and I'am sure you dont too :)

If you ask this to a freight company your bike would reach soon...If u ask on QL you will have to ride it yourself :-/
