Thanks for all the replies peeps.
Anyvan were quite good, got a few reasonable quotes, BLD also good but reckon on 5 days for pickup and 5 days for delivery, (thats working days). I think quite a few base their prices on that.
Being impatient I made a lot of calls yesterday and managed to get a guy thru Motorcycledeliveryservice.co.uk, his name is Peter Shaw, 1 man business, good reviews over many years. Trades as PJS Transwift Ltd, fully bike insured, takes photos and does all docs etc. He is picking it up tomorrow and delivering by weekend.
£150 from South Shields to Southampton, pretty reasonable I thought so I have gone for him.
But thanks for all the suggestions guys. Thanks for the number MEM62 but didn't get round to phoning in the end.
Christo, I think the bike would be able to make the journey, It's just me that wouldn't!
Keeping the Fazer 8 for long distance riding and fun days out with my mates, the Royal Enfield is just for me to bumble round the country lanes and try a different style of motorcycling. Dunno if I'll keep it, but for the price it was worth trying.
