I took my bike into Morocco in my van in March this year. (Via Tanger Med) Just provide the customs guy with both registration docs and your passport and show the bike, and they will provide the temp import cards for both. It was straightforward and no questions asked. The difficulty arises when you arrive with multiple bikes in different names, as Chris states, and the paperwork starts to get complicated!
I also had more difficulty getting into Spain than France on 2 separate trips in the last year where I had 6 bikes in the van, in different names. In Spain (Santander) I got rapped knuckles for not providing a customs declaration - 2 or 3 bikes ok, but they have to consider my excesses as commercial! Allowed in, but told "don't do it again". In France (St Malo) the customs guy asked if I was emigrating, and when I said no, he said "Good, otherwise I would have to charge duty on your bikes", grinned and wished me bonne route.
