| Re: Engine Shipping??? I am trying to get a 2001 r1 motor shiped to me from arizona to california. I just did a shipping estimate on ups.com and it was $326 dollars. I think I will try forward air. Does anyone know the best price for shipping a motor to me? |

| Re: Engine Shipping??? i read the r1 motor is 175lbs. i don know know the dimensions. I heard that these jap motors fit snug in those rubbermaid containers sold at walmart and are easy shippers $150 through forwardair.com seems to be the cheapest rate. |
