speak with Allied Van Lines in Chicago. 630.924.4400. You will need all the paperwork from the bike, including the original sales contract. Depending on the age of the bike, and how long you have owned it, you may get hit with customs duty.
Your next big problem is licensing for riding in the country. If Spain is anything like Germany, it will be fun to convince them that the bike meets pollution standards, etc.
You will need the technical data sheet for your bike, especially the emissions and noise standards. If you have a Honda, I think that you are basically screwed, as their customer service in the US was useless.
With a little luck - and help from the local dealer - and a whole lot of patience, it will happen.
