Caucasus & Stans: where to buy the bike?
We're two Argentine friends wanting to travel the Caucasus (Georgia, Azerbaijan, Iran) & the Stans (up to Kazakhstan) by motorcycle.
HU is a fantastic resource! I've read countless valuable threads, but I'm a bit overwhelmed with so much information - and didn't find an answer to the following...
Our current plan is: Buy and register/patent two motorbikes in Russia (just north of the border with Georgia/Azerbaijan), drive all the way through Iran, and reach Kazakhstan. And finally back to Russia again. Selling them there would be bonus points!
Has anyone BOUGHT and REGISTERED a motorcycle in Russia, and then left the country? Is this even possible?
Alternatively, any suggestion as WHERE to buy & register, in those countries? I read stories about buying and shipping from Europe but that makes it much more expensive.
ANY tips regarding initial motorbike paperwork in Russia really welcome! will definitely share all the info we gather along the way!
