Really, for what you'll pay for transport you should ride it back.

As long as you have riding experience already, and can get the time off, go for it.

A U-haul actually isn't a bad idea. I didn't think of that. They actually have motorcycle trailers that you can rent for like 15 bucks a day

yeah i thought about u-haul too but i dont have a truck and renting a moving truck for that long is expensive even before gas gets figured into it.


its starting to look like a road trip is in my future.
