There is YouTube video of some guys steeling 600rr by dragging into mini van. So maybe it is possible. But I would rent a moving van and put everything including bike in there

I put my CBR250R in a minivan to get it to Philip Island for a couple track days. Worked great! Depends on the van, but the F4i should fit. Just make sure you strap it down well!

Measure twice, cut once.

Screen and mirrors off and it should go... but depends on the type of mini van

OR

maybe this scenario may work too

if you have a hitch, rent a bike trailer.

it depends what minivan you have......i have huled my tc125 in my windstar. to put it in there i had to lean it a lot and make it stand once inside. it felt heavy while in that lean and its a light bike.

i think it is possible, just be careful while doing it. many things can go wrong.

U-Haul does rent equipment for 1 way travel. If I ever decide to move back to Houston, I'm definitely using that option
