Bike
Yes. I have been considering everything from 150 cc to 650 cc.
From Japan, India, China and Colombia
Used and new.
And I have made my conclusion what fits me.
For the situation I am in and for the trip I plan.
Thanks

Bike in Colombia
Yes, I bought a Royal Enfield Himalayan.
There was no problem to get it registred in my name.
And I can travel wherever I want.
Since it is Colombian, there is no Temporary permit in Colombia that expires.
I used it for a 5 month tour in SA.
Left it for 9 months. And now I am using it for a second trip.
I pay yearly SOAT for Colombia and tax.
No mecanical inspection, since it is new.
The RE fits me perfecr. But a new one is around 4 000 USD.
About bikes. I posted some infon in another thread.
Search and find.
I have got a friend in Colombia. That works as a motorcycle mecanics. But can also help with buying and selling process. If you do not buy direct from a dealer, that do all work.
He is in Cali.
If you want his contact, send me a PM
