Crossing South america with Brazillian Bikes
Hello everybody, we are two french guys that used to travel through Eurasia with a 4wd.
We are now in French Guyana and our next objective is to cross and travel along south america with motorbikes...
We want to buy two bikes in Brazil ( Belem ) and travel with it.
We already know that we need a CPF to buy the bikes, but very easy to have...but we were told that we might be blocked at some borders like argentina borders because even if Mercosul rules apply with a brazillian bike for Brazillian people, it may not work if you are a foreigner travelling with brazillian bike ( and u will have to let the bikes at the border ).
Does someone have info about that regulation and the difficulty to cross south american border if you are french travelling with brazilian bikes ??
Second question  we are beginners with bike ( more used to 4wd...) , don't have bike permits... peolple told us one of our best solution is to buy Honda 125CG that we can drive with our classic permits and is very common and easy to repair...
So which bikes will you buy in our situation ???
Cheers,
Simon and Jordan
