I know of none JFMan, save (possibly) Paraguay. Chile, Arg, Bol, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and now Brazil all require TVIP.

Thanks for chiming in.
Are there some SA countries where you can turn in your TVIP without physicaly be leaving the country? (like Mexico)
In Mexico you could ride back to the border area, turn in your TVIP and ride back in and sell the bike for parts if you wanted to.
I am curious to hear of other folks who have sold their bikes in SA and how it all came out in the end.
To get ride of you bike, what is the most cost effective and brings about the least amount of hassel.
Thnak you all.

I bought an american registered KLR in Ushuaia in january 2015. We just came to the Aduana (with the original owner) and told them, that now I'll drive this moto out of country, because original owner has a flight soon, blah-blah-blah, they said - ok.
The main problem was with the POA, because there all notaries want to work only with translated title (with apostille!), i dont know what's about other countries, but it seems to be a good idea to have an apostille on your translated to Spanish title.

Canadian bikes dont even have any titles anyway
It does look like I could only sell it for parts or sell it to another Canadian citizen.

You can sell it to any foreign motorcycle traveler. Just put an ad in the Hubb for sale section. There is a bit of a market for foreign motorcycles in Chile and Argentina. Canadians and Americans routinely ride bikes down there and sell them off for cheap rather then ship them back for 5k. Many European/ Australian travelers choose to start their trips in Argentina/ Chile so they can buy a North American motorcycle and ride it up to Colombia or Mexico and sell if for cheap at the end of their trip.
The way you get around the TVIP and the title are by photoshopping them into the new owners name and making good color copies of the documents. Then you and the new owner ride across the border into Chile and get the new owner an official Chilean TVIP in the new owners name.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
