hi all, i want to bring my tvs apache 150 to bhopal from delhi. which is the best way to do it. i know about the two options which are

1. booking through railways but i am really concerned about the way they take the bikes. i dont want them to damage my bike in any way.

2. private transporter.

can you pls tell me how much will i need to spend in both the cases.
i need the bike within one week.
pls help

i was also thinking of riding from delhi to bhopal. my biggest tour has been around 300 kms one side. so this trip would be a first for me. will it be feasable to ride alone for more than 700kms??

pls help

regards
addy

mods pls move the thread if necessary.
