Wanted: 2 cheap bikes in Ghana

[Carluset]

Hi all!
A friend and I are planning a short trip to Ghana for late October 2024 (8 days).
Our very preliminary idea is taking a flight to Accra, then fly to Tamale. Then see the North and possibly drive back to Accra seeing things along the East.

It would be awesome if we could rent the bikes considering the short time we will spend in this trip, but it seems impossible in this country.

We have located a dealer in Tamale that would help us with the paperwork for buying a couple of used motorbikes. The problem would be that it seems to take "around 2 days" to get the paperwork done... and you know, Africa, these 2 days can turn into 3, 4 or whatever, which would make no sense buying the motorbikes. The other option would be sending the money, buying two used motorbikes that we have not seen and not tested and cross fingers! It sounds like a bad idea.

If anyone here had a bike parked in the country and we could make a deal, it would be awesome.

The other problem we face is that, for selling it, we would just drop the bike in a dealer and pray for receiving any money back when they sell it. (any experience of this kind anyone can share?)

Any idea, experience, advice is more than welcome!

We have never done this kind of trip so far.

Thanks!
