Well Wouter a guy just left one for sale in storage with me two days ago. Its a KLR 650, 2005 with bags and top box.
Problem is that you can not get a temporary tourist import permit when you have a cedula. Problem being that is this case you have same rights as a Colombian and since you are now an official residence you can not import any thing on a tourist permit.
Anyway, as a tourist you can only ride on a temporary tourist import permit for maximum 6 month per calender year!
Suggest you buy Colombian registered. If you take go care of the bike you can probably sell it for what you bought it for, when you're done with it. This is the only positive about buying locally registered. The prices are crazy high, because its illegal to import any used vehicle!
I have a KTM 640 Adventure for sale - Colombian registered!
Cheers
Mike

And I am looking for a nice bike.. if you come across something I would be happy to hear about it
