Awesome 49Reo

I will get Drifter1 to connect with you and ship it Montana bound.  Date and time wise doesn't matter to me so when ever your visiting in spring I can connect with you on the Canadian side.  .... So im in no rush.  I'll drive my car, so I can pack it back..... Nothing like an adventure and a good story right!

I appreciate everyone's help

Cheers NTL

Sounds good, NTL. Talk to you later.

Regards,
49Reo

What ever happened to NAFTA? I thought things were supposed to be more free-flowing and less costly between Canada, U.S., and Mexico.

The only people who benefitted from that was the folks who closed their factories and moved them south.

Not at all, NTL Glad to help out If you guys can get it to Montana, to my fathers place I will brig it back when I go down to see him in the spring. Only thing I can't guarantee is when I will be going down to see him. If you are not in a rush, we can make it work. Just let me know, so I can tell him to expect a package. We do this quite often, mostly for myself, but last year he fielded a package for Drifter Paul in Australia; he was trying to get a seat for his Drifter shipped over, but the seller refused to sell to anyone outside the USA. So, he shipped it to my fathers place, he in turn shipped it to Australia. DP sent me the postage cost and I kicked it down to Dad's. All works out, a little convoluted, but it works.

ok got to ask are you going to ride your Drifter there? I had to google White Rock, it was farther west then I thought to Canbrook is going to be a decent run for you. Best of luck and hope you are getting better.

Wow, thanks for the kind gestures. It has been a rough year but I am on the path to recovery. Can't wait to get my bike back out on the road, hopefully this spring.

I like the idea of shipping to Montana if 49Reo doesn't mind picking it up and bringing it across the line. It would do me some good to go on a bit of a road trip - we could meet in Cranbrook.

49Reo, are you sure you don't mind?

Thanks again Never Too Late

 An they wonder why no one uses Canada post...lol...I use Grey Hound bus lines to send stuff to my sister in Kingston, fast and cheaper by a huge amount....

I hear ya. Shipping between Canadian addresses is more expensive than shipping from Canada to the U.S.; I listed a Corbin seat on eBay about 3-4 years ago, had 2 people interested and wanting shipping costs. So, checked the postal rates, to ship to Calgary Alberta (about 700 miles) was more money than shipping it to the mid-west. Go figure; to me that made no sense, but it is what it is. They get you coming or going.....

 ::)  I'll take the tarnished Knight anytime......now if I was in line or along the route of easy get it here, I would do it in a heartbeat. That is why I asked D1 how close he is to Fort Drum. The USAF unit here does a weekly run to Fort Drum and brings things back for their mini PX and other items and duty free too. But it would be next to the same cost to ship from ON to BC via UPS or any service that I checked....if he lived in ON I would have taken care of it, but you got the nod this time.....

Seriously, though, just want to help out.

  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 ....

but you are our knight in shining armour

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.
