Careful with the Uhaul motorcycle trailers. My dad rented one for the Kawi Vulcan he bought, and the piece that connects the front tire's strap to the trailer (something like that) snapped off after 15 minutes and if the kickstand wasn't down or he didn't notice, the bike would have tipped/bounced out.

So, make sure it is secure and not a busted one.

edit: maybe not bounced out of the trailer, but you get the point lol

so i looked at all the different ways of getting this done and anyway i cut it, itll cost be about 500-600 to get it done (or more) so i went with a reputable moving company for just under 600. We will see how it turns out.

Great... post up pics of your bike when you get her home.
Good luck getting her safe and sound.

its got it where it counts and its $ value and its sentimental value are on totally opposite ends of the number spectrum.

my long term plans are to restore (90%) it so it needs:

correct fairings
repainted tank/or new tank
new dash panel (its got a crack)
oem front turn signals
new brake light unit (some jacko decided to glue the red part to the black part)
correct windshield


it belonged to my brother, now its mine....it helps me keep my sanity.
