You can work something out in Quintana Roo or Chiapas
Big cities and places like Cancun will have rental units around , storage lockers capable of holding a bike or a car .They are called MINI BODEGAS, google that and you will come up with an assortment of locations .
If you have your TVIP fresh and valid for 6 months you could park the bike and be back before the TVIP expires and you could after that go back across a CA border and renew the TVIP without any penalty. ( PS : the cancellation and " export" can be done at a number of roadside customs terminals remote from the actual border ,such as Huixtla on Mex 200 west of Tapachula, Allende COAH on Mex 57 south of Piedras Negras 53km. )
If you leave with a stale TVIP still in effect you will have to speak with Banjercito to arrange a temporary permit . They will give you a form which allows you a limited time upon your return to remove the bike from storage and ride to and across a nearby border . This process does involve you losing your security deposit. When you go back into Mexico you then buy a new TVIP and put up a new refundable security deposit for the next 180 days
In May this year this same question also appeared on this forum , at which time I provided the following new information which will be of interest to you. It is a direct quote of an official information pamphlet I picked up at the Mexican border .
The following is a quote from that brochure.
"""
SAFE RETURN OF VEHICLE
If you were not able to return your vehicle abroad before the Permit deadline , request an authorization at the Adminstración Central de Apoyo Juridico de Auditoria de Comercio Exterior or to the Administraciones de Comercio Exterior corresponding .
With this authorization you have 5 business days to return
with your vehicle through any border port, without any problems . """
End Quote .
Given five days to move the vehicle out of Mexico one can choose to make a speedy run north to the USA border from most of Mexico.
But if one is closet to the south frontier it will be equally acceptable to the Mexican authorities if one removes the bike to either Belize or Guatemala to comply.This will work even if the desire is to return to the USA . From BZ or from GT it will be acceptable to return to Mexico and arrange a fresh FMM and TVIP."""""
