Colombia due to the process of buying a bike.

a) Buy a bike and have you registered as the owner, without being resident
b) legally leave the country with the bike

Is possible and easy in Colombia

a) is possible in some other countries. But more or less difficult
a) is possible but b) is not possible for many countries. (Argentina, Peru, Chile....)


All lot has been written about this already. So I do not want to start from scratch.

Than comes all these... but you can.... Have the bike registered on a citizen, That writes a poder for you..or You write a poder for a citizen that rides it out of the country.... You register two owners, Yourself and a citizen. The citizen rides it out of the country. And you pick up the bike on the other side of the border... Or you try to pass the border illegally....Smuggling is possible but not legal.

Base your planning on that:

1) Colombia is the country where to buy a bike of you want to travel outside of the country
2) Do not plan for buying a bike in one country and sell it in another.
3) Rental bikes can not leave the country they are rented in
4) Check very carefully the rules for leaving a country with the bike where it is bought, OBS it is taking it out that is illegal. It has nothing to do with entry requirements in other countries.

Since you have family relations in Ecuador. Maybe one Ecuadorian citizen can buy a bike and write a Poder for you
