Taking a bike out of Argentina
I am in Buensos Aires, and it seems that because of bad times, everybody wants to get rid of their bikes. I got some good offers, and is thinking about the Honda Transalp, which I've heard is a good all-rounder. Another cheaper bike is the Honda Falcon 400. Do anyone know about that one? Recomendations? I want to cover a lot of land, so it must be a durable bike. The Transalp I can get for my budget (US$2000) ae '90s mostly, whereas i can get a Falcon '96 for the same price. Are the Transalps dodgy that old?
My most important question though is if I register the bike in my name, can I get it out of the country, and can I re-register it in another country and sell it there, or would my best bet be to sell it to another traveler going south? If anyone's been through the Argentinian red tape please let me know.
