Motoreiter has responded to the rest.
On this above point, a TIP is only cancelled by the vehicle going out of RUS, or written off following an accident following Police Certification of this. Until then it remains valid until expiry after which it becomes your liability to pay duty and obtain local registration - which is not allowed for holders of Tourist or Business Visas.
The number 22 features greatly with Russian burocracy!
Turning to your later post, - by exiting RUS while you sent the bike east you are saving some of your own visa's 90 days in 180. That is useful to you but not the bike although a quick half hour in Mongolia or Kaz starts the bike on a new 3 month TIP.
Whether those countries will need a visa from you or will permit a 'no-mans land' U-turn, I don't know.
