Hey there, guys sorry for interrupting the thread!

Have three KLR 650's for sale in Guatemala '07 '06 and '04 respectively.

All in relatively good nick, have just come down through Mexico from Los Angeles where we bought the bikes.

If interested. Contact asap.

I heard a presentation a few years ago about people that crafted their own tour in India. They worked out a deal with a small dealer to buy bikes from him and sell them back at a lower price. Basically they rented bikes, but got brand new rides. They felt a need ofr new bikes and bought the biggest Royal Enfields available. In the end they rarely rode at speed because of the road and traffic conditions in India.

Buying a bike and taking it home has several challenges as mentioned. And you will be newly married, so it might be too soon schedule a long road trip. Think about it.

If you are really thinking of taking a month long honeymoon, maybe renting a bike is the way to go. You don't have to ride for the full month. Take the first weeks at the beach, relax, ride around the country of your choice for 2 weeks and last week go to the jungle or mountains.

A full month on a bike could become an unnessisary test of the new marriage...

These people might be worth a look in Costa Rica--they seem to be a dealer of off-road bikes and accessories, but might have used bikes for sale, or rent.

Your best bet will be to buy a motorcycle in Guatemala that is at least 3 years old and register it in Guatemala on your name. There are a few advantages to do this. You can ride all of CA with no problems and into Mexico and the US. I don't know about Canada but I did something similar. I live in Las Vegas NV but for a while I lived in Guatemala for work. I traveled several times from the US to Guatemala. I have a few friends that still live in Guatemala. Antigua, Mixco, Xela and Escuintla. I bought a Honda Africa Twin in Guatemala and rode it for over 40K then I decided to ride it back into the US and that is when I ran into trouble. I could not import it into the US because it was never officially imported into the US but I was granted a permit to use it in the US for a year. I got a lot of compliments on the bike and got pulled over several times but after a while I rode it back to Guatemala where is sitting now. Before you ask, I don't want to sell it, I love that stupid bike even though it has been a lot of headaches. In Guatemala you can reach out to "Villeda" it's a motorcycle dealership that can help you if you really want to buy a bike and they can do the paperwork for you. It's a pretty big dealership and I have used them while in Guatemala. I will be back in Guatemala for Semana Santa so I will make a mental note to find out more. There is a huge American community in Panahachel and I have seen many cars and bikes with American plates so I am pretty sure there is way to do it without costing you an arm and a leg. You will love it for sure but always be careful and stay vigilant.

Hi
My son and myself have traveled from Oregon and are now in El Salvador heading towards Panama.
I will have to return to Australia soon and will be selling my 2014 KLR 650 which is in excellent condition with only 7000 miles completed, aluminium side panniers and soft top luggage. The bike is registered in Washington State so easy transfer over for title etc
If interested please respond
Thanks Doug

Not sure if your KLR is still available but I am interested if the bike is in Panama

Thanks,
Steve
