unishippers are the cheapest, look them up on line.
you can build a crate or if you saved the metal one repack it in that.

not sure if its much help, but a couple years ago i had a z50 christmas special shipped from portland OR to my house in Ste genevieve, MO (south of St. Louis, so like halfway across the country. The guy who shipped it to me took the forks off and laid on the side of the bike, tank taken off, rear wheel unbolted and scooted up for more room, put it in a cardbord box and shipped by UPS lol. Im wanting to say it was only like $85 or something (or less), didnt seem to bad. Probably not the "ideal" way to ship a bike but it worked for me

I have used a guy off of "Uship.com" out of Denver, CO that has been amazing. He's shipped two (2) bikes for me so far and very professional and treats them like precious cargo. Never a problem, prompt, professional, and very inexpensive. Send me a PM and I'll forward his contact info. I will use him again if the need arises.

^. What were your costs? And where were they to/from?

I shipped from Northern California to Norman, OK and my shipping was $275. I also shipped a bike from Northeast Kansas to Norman for $200. In covered protected, insured environment all the way. Great guy.
