 Try "ribbon customizations exportecxml" key-in for export and "ribbon customizations importecxml" for import. 
 With regards,

Which version were this customisations created in. 
 Ribbon customisations are stored in a DGNLIB file and the configuration variable MS_GUIDGNLIBLIST should point to a folder where this DGNLIB file is located. 
 
 In a standard installation it usually resides in the WorkSpace folder. 
 C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces\YourWorkSpace\Standards\Dgnlib\ 
 
 Try copying the DGNLIB file to the above folder in U17 and the customisations will load.

On the original machine you will have to find where the workflow is saved. You can hover over the workflow in the customize ribbon dialog and it should tell you which dgnlib its saved to. 
 Once found copy the dgnlib to the new machine to a location where it will be read by the ms_guidgnliblist variable

Create GUI customizations in DGNLIB which you can share in the network and set MS_GUIDGNLIBLIST to point to DGNLIB file.
