Included are two BMW motorcycles (a 78 RS Motosport, a 51 R51/3). Both these bikes are like new, since I keep them in my apartment and never ride them in New York (for lots of reasons). Anyway - anyone got any tips I can give the moving people (Bekins) to insure these things get to Calif. in one piece? Can I assume the mover will take all the required precautions? I took the gas/oil out long ago (although it is not required under current N.Y. law when storing them in your apt.!). I'm considering taking fenders off and just boxing them. Anyone else done this sort of thing? Did the bike(s) make it ok? thanks...rich
