Shipping used to be cheap, then the Hurley doods ruined that by making damage claims...... I had a kikbutt Dualsport that I shipped to every Island but Kahoolawe and Ni'ihau used to cost $15.00 each way VIA Young Brothers.
Now your best bet is renting a container and going as a group. We do it every year for the Kauai Hare n Hound Race and it gets it to about $40 a person but thats dirtbikes packed any 'ol way in the container. Wouldn't want to do that with a Sportbike...... :lol
When it was cheap I'd go to Kauai or Big Island several times a year and stay at my friends place and go nuts!
On Kauai several years ago I actually had a CR500 Honda I made into a dualsport streetlegal! Using a Baja Designs Lighting kit. They make kits for virtually any bike and if its a 4 stroke ya got no problem. No strokers tho

Only prob, I brought it to Hono and tried to register it and they were shaking there heads the instant the serial number went into the pooter.... It's on the NO list
