Can anyone recommend a ocean freight forwarder to ship my fiancee's motorbike from the PH to California? 

 

I originally thought I would just get her one here but prices are outrageous from the same size machine in the US.

Even with any customs or import taxes, I have to think its way cheaper to bring it over here. 

 

Anyone have experience doing this with a decent freight forwarder?

You can check with LBC.

 

I don't know if the motorbike would be street legal for California to be honest with you

It isn't just import fees that would be an issue, the motorbike would also need to clean the EPA.   

 

Most likely all of this would apply to a motorbike as well

 

To import a car into the United States, the US Customs and Border Protection will need the following documents:
  1. original bill of lading.
  2. bill of sale.
  3. Foreign registration.
  4. EPA Form 3520-1.
  5. DOT Form HS-7.
