Disregarding the current COVID-19 restrictions that apply to the Canada-US border, it's really a non-event for an American citizen to enter Canada with a vehicle.
Just tell the border guard that you are riding to Montreal (or Toronto, or wherever) to drop the motorcycle off at Air Canada, and then you and the motorcycle will travel to Europe. The border staff won't have any further interest in you.
Another forum member mentioned concerns such as criminal records, etc. in a previous post. If that might apply to you, do some investigation ahead of time to see what if any other actions you might need to take prior to crossing the border.
An American can enter Canada without a passport, but an American can't get back into the USA from Canada without a passport. Obviously, you'll need the passport for Europe.
Don't bring any guns, or more than one bottle of alcohol or one carton of 200 cigarettes. That's pretty much it.
