Went to the local bike shop and got a packing crate the bikes come down from Japan in , just made it wider to allow for the panniers and higher . I have to take it to the wharf by Monday 20th to be put in the container and on the ship by the 23rd and in Korea by the 11th June.
Found out i need to get a temporary import / export permit for the bike in Korea and an outward bound ticket . So i had to speak to the car ferry company in Korea . With a bit of broken English i got the bike and myself booked for Vladivostok on the 23rd June
Russian visa has been approved and should be in the post by next week , Thanks Iris Travel in Sydney.

I just hope that's all i need apart from Green card insurance for the bike . I have been told i get the temporary import/export permit for Russia at the port at Vladivostok but i have also be told to be patient and go with the flow and if all else fails bribe some one.
