Hi Dags - watched your india vid and also your Chiang Mai one (nice donuts). I am planning on doing a fly into and out of Kolkata end of Jan 2017 looking to also buy local 125cc for all the same reasons you highlighted. Down to Kerala and have a crack at getting the bike up to Leh then scoot thru Nepal and down to Assam Sikkim then sell the bike back in Kolkata to get around the interstate sell considerations. (est 8 weeks but apretty flexi on time)
i have intl bike licence and will get me a multi entry visa so can get back into India from Nepal. what i would love to find out is :
Did you buy your bike via a dealer or direct thru someone selling second hand
I assume bike not registered in your name - how did this work?
what did you do for insurance?
what paperwork if any required to take out of state.
Did you sell the bike in the same state as you bought it?
any police stop experience that cost you?
from the time you located the bike you wanted how long until you were able to hit the road paperwork wise.
anyone knowing of a decent contact in Kolkata would be greatly appreciated.
this is kinda my dry run trip before considering tackling south america next (also considering a 25cc for that).
cheers for sharing your stuff - awesome!
Sweeeet
