  I think and it has been a wahile since I brought anything back but if it is your property or a gift to you it should be free. I would check that ....

What does UPS need to ship it to Montana zip code 59870? If you  get it there I will bring it back with me; I am allowed around $750.00 duty free at the border on my way back so won't have to pay duty on it bringing it in to Canada.

That's a pretty cool idea RATMAN....I'm sure that's never been done before.It would be like a Drifter run without the bike.Could start something here,bud.Maybe call it "Drifters Gone Postal" .....LOL

 :) Drifter1 you are going to help NTL which is really nice to see people helping people, and so nice of our shining Knight in white satin to help out to eh Hoser.....lol.....refer to post above too......

Drifter1 go to the members list and see who live next in line to you and see if we could or you could work a transfer system across the US to Montana, from member to member to get the system to our Hoser in Montana and he could then run it into BC.

Thanks for all the ideas and help guys...I'm going to contact NTL and figure this transaction out one way or nother

Lol...my daughter used to say that a lot... "bite me, dad" when she was about 15-16. So one day she said that while within my reach, so I grabbed her and bit her arm ;D. It was a long time before she said that again....at least while within reach!

While reading down this post I was going to suggest that. I usually go to Montana in late April early May. If NTL is not in a hurry I would be glad to help out. White Rock is quite a ways out of my way, but I'm sure something can be worked out. If someone from NTL's end could meet me around Cranbrook on my way home we could meet up there and transfer the parts. I would have to contact NTL in advance of when I leave, say "I will be back in Cranbrook such-and-such day." Then we could hook up. Let me know, email me for Montana shipping address if this works. Anything to help out a hurtin' brother.

Pretty slick there RATMAN......it's kinda what Drifitingirl does.I don't know how anyone could afford these crazy shipping fee's.For this cost I'd hate to say it,but NTL would be better off keeping the pipes he has on his drifter now.This poor fella can't afford to pay that fee,especially all he has gone through.

Ok Canadian Military does not have its own postal system anymore, but I had an idea but going to BC is not going to work from my end. Now pwehaps we get our Montana boy involved at this time. He also resides in BC......duh the lights are flashing already. Ship pipes to Montana, BC yeti picks them up on his next trpip to Montana, takes them over the 49th  line, and ships them from there to White Rock, or better yet he delivers them in person via his Drifter.....lol Love  nominate people for work......

Yep. Shipping costs across border are outrageous, That's my maine reason for buying things while I'm south of it. I have been known to have things shipped to a friend in Maine, have another friend pick it up, cross border, then sip to me from inside Canada...saves a bundle.


pcarrell

It maybe the only way to get it there this side of insanity!

I wonder if it would affect the cost if it went to a Canadian military base first?


Drift1

PC that's always an option as well.I just figured ship it whole so this fella could just bolt the exhaust on and he's good to go.However doing a little bit of work on his drifter actually may be good thereapy
