Hoping to buy in Argentina or Brazil
 

I would love any information of help anyone can give me. I am currently travelling down to tierra Del Fuego in Argentina and will arrive there at the end of October of 2004. At that point I`m hoping to start a overland trip by motorcycle back up the East coast of the continent. My first problem is finding a bike to do it with.

Since I have made it down here on a pedal bike, anything with a motor will be and improvement and welcome. I am willing to ride a moped to start if necessary.

I would really appreciate any information anyone can provide.

Hi,

Be very carefull and get info at customs BEFORE you buy anything.

As far as I know it is NOT alowed for a foreiner to leave argentina with a in argentina registerd bike.

That would be a nasty surprise when you are at the border.

There is a very friendly bike Mech. In Ush. He rides all the enduros. I don't have name with me but if you ask any biker in town they can give you directions. He works on alot of the travelers bikes. The trip north is a long stright road.

I forgot to mention this but I have a BMW 1150GS in storage down there. I rode it down in 2001/02 and stayed. It has 65k miles on it but is setup for long travel, Tourtec bags, back box, tankbag with side bags. It is located in Misiones Argentina. That is just between Brazil and Paruguy. It carries US plates so no hassle taking it out. I would like $10,000 for the bike. There are also 2 helmets and riding gear (depending on you size)
