Your having all these problems with them already, and they don't even have your bike yet? Tell them to bend over and blow. Take the trip, and contact the dealers in the area. You might be able to find one to rent pretty easy.

Let's say this happend on the other end, while you were in Daytona waiting for your bike and they didn't show up for a couple of days. Talk about being pissed. Don't even give these guys your bike

Go as planned WITHOUT giving them your bike and you and your girlfriend have a blast on the beach. ABSOLUTELY no way would I hand over the key and my hella expensive bike. I wouldn't even do that to a HONDA.....well, maybe a Honda.
You've been warned. This don't sound like it's going to have a good outcome if you do give them your bike. But hey, WTF do we know?

The only end to this is to end it now....
Take your girlfriend to Daytona, have a blast, rent a bike for a day or two.

No way would I trust them...........nada, nfw
I believe the writing is on the wall......shut the door in their face.
Fly down, enjoy the time with the little woman, and get a game plan
for next year......don't give them Jack Aholes another chance
to screw you over.

question i have is, is this the same company sending it home? i like the idea of renting a truck/ trailer and haul *** down here. sorry to say it wont be the same without "your" bike here. yes you can rent one, it will feel good but, its not yours. thats how i would feel.

The Adventures of Puff Daddy SeanEMac at Daytona:
SeanEMac: "Honey, we made it! Now I can't wait till my beautiful bike gets here so we can feel the wind between our cheeks!"
<Sean's phone rings>
SeanE: "Hello?"
Guido's Shipping Express: "BigDaddy Sean?" "Hey, just a small setback." "Good news is we made it with your bike" "Even better news is we've added some stripes to your bike and had some upholstery work done for you for your inconvenience"
