I live on the west coast (Seosan area) and it has proved difficult to find used motorcycle for sale. I am looking for a 125cc Mirage / Magna /cruiser type bike. I have seen plenty available in Seoul, my problem is getting the bike back to the west coast.

I would simply ride it home, but no traveling on the highways would make navigating quite a challenge.

Does anyone know of a shipping service that would deliver a bike? or any other suggestions?

I transported my old 125cc from Geoje Do to Yangsan, it cost 160 000 won.

Just get a Korean co-teacher or friend to organise it or no doubt if you brought it from a bike shop they could also arrange for it to be shipped

Thanks, could anyone recommend a bike shop where I could find a 125 in the 500,000 - 1,000,000 range?

you should be able to pick that kind of bike up easily where you live and save the shipping fee. just find a nearby bike shop and buy one from them. There are a lot of older small roads bikes can be driven on even if there is an expressway. you can usually take older roads if you can find some shop that the food delivery guys get serviced from.
