As Brett says, I've heard from two German friends of mine who have had their
bikes flown across to the US several times that shipping costs are about the
same as four weeks' bike hire, so if you're coming for more than four weeks
it's probably cheaper to ship.

I think Lufthansa are pretty used to shipping bikes, they were able to give
me a quote over the telephone when I was thinking about shipping my ST over
for the Ridge rally.

I wonder if Jack Lilley would hire a bike to you?  But you'd need to ask any
hire company if the insurance covers you to take the bike to other
countries.  Green insurance cards for hire cars often don't cover Eastern
European countries.
