Smile Shall i take my midi dirt bike?

Hi everyone, just a quick question. Has anyone shipped a mini/midi moto or dirtbike over in a container and if so did you encounter any problems when trying to get customs clearance. I have had a couple of quotes for shipping now and both said different things when it came down to me saying i wanted to take the midi dirtbike. One said it would be ok and the other says no way its not worth the hassle at customs. I'd like to thank you all in advance for any replies. Cheers.

Give it a bath first in Jeyes, Dettol, Jif, Petrol, Parrafin, then pressure wash it about 10 times, then re-do above process another twice. Look at it to check it's clean, then strip everything off it, re-do complete process on all individual parts (twice), put it back together and ship it. Aquis will then take one look at it and bill you for cleaning it again just in case.

I was gonna take my Xsport, but after hearing about how clean it will HAVE to be, I sold it.

You can get them out there so I'll replace when we get there.
