Another thing
sort out the shipping agent in u/k long before you import. as not all are the same service.
1st decide which port you want it delivered.
2nd find agent who deals in this port of choice. and how they import. eg how they want paying. how long they store for before they start charging. ( as often only 7 days so this means posting paperwork to them ect so not long )
3rd get prices in advance.
4th ensure that you have copies of all the paperwork at the departing port as you may need info from these.
invoice for bike, deregistration. shipping bill of Lading. ect
Shipping is done by volume not weight ( only air mail is weight )
so by removing items like fairing and packing down side of bike in crate will make the overall crate smaller so saving money.
also there is a lot of emplty space in crate, so use this to bring in some extra bits like the rarer items to sell on to recouperate some of your costs
