    Who would you entrust with transporting $250k worth of bikes on one load?

    Mansells Motorycle Movers of course.

    The PSB display at the Northam Motorcycle festival was a bit of a logistical nightmare for us. We had to arrange that four bikes be at Northam on the friday morning for setup. We could have hired a trailer and done a few trips but this would have just made the weekend a pain in the arse.

    In the end a quick call to Todd at Mansells and a deal was made. On Thursday afternoon we met Todd at Deej's house with the Desmosedici, Turbo Busa, R1 SP and the Mad Casey Stoner Rep. I have never seen anyone take so much care in loading/strapping bike's onto a truck. The next morning the Bikes arrive on time without a single mark on them.

    Mansells then arrived towards the end of the show to reload and return the bikes to our garage in Perth, Heck we even had speed camera updates from Todd which was a great heads up for our trip back.

    If you havent guessed it, what i'm trying to say is that if you need your bike moved without the stress and risk of it falling over by not being strapped down right then give Mansells a call, you won't regret it.

    And a nice bloke too, I like customer service and Todd kept us all informed when he would arrive at Northam or metro drop off.

    Todd = Legend. Dont use anyone else to move your bike.

    After seeing the care he took loading them on I was at total ease and didnt think about the bikes again until they arrived on time, and unscathed.

    So on the eight day, after wasting time faffing about with unimportant guff like heaven & earth & the waters & sky & creatures [& having a wee kip] & man.... God created PSB (GenesiSX-R1000)

    You mean those bikes don't get transported in their own atmospheric and humidity controlled pressurised air bubbles?

    For shame.

    If Mansells offers a discount or incentive to PSB members, now would be a good time to metion it.

    Having said that (cheeky lass that I am), my preference is to use business that support PSB/MAD where I can. No dramas in this instance, as I have heard positive testimonials about Mansells, from trusted sources. Just askin'.

    May also pay to get a tyredown, there great for most sports bikes especially anything with a undertail exhaust or pipes that arent to close to the bike, theres no need for tiedowns .
