Cant comment on Japan but bringing a bike from Thailand complete and there are two options, rapido two weeks allowing for customs and 800 something and slow boat about 600 something lands when it lands as it will be sharing container with other goods.Thats for door to door service collection and boxing of bike.

If any body knows any better please let me know, tired of hearing of you can get this blahblah allways after the event!!
