He succeeded but cost him a few days and around 250€ non refundable. He also only got a 10 day single entry because of this. I met him at the turkmenistan border where we tried to cross together. I succeeded (all paperwork done in advance ;-) ) but he eventually got stuck in between Iran and Turkmenistan.
1st of all he had a hard time getting out of Iran because of this "one off" document which they didn't know (but eventually he got through) 2ndly he got stuck at the Turkmen border because (guess what) he had no visa for Turkmenistan... !!! Haha.. never heard what became of him.. definately would never get into Turkmenistan, but do you think Iran would take him back without Carnet and without Visa?!.. if anyone knows the sequell.. Id be very interested :-) (this was summer 2014)
He rode a very very overloaded ktm 990 adv.
Second way to get into Iran is via Hossein (if he still offers his services).. search the forum, you'll find his details there.. good luck!

Yes. Mr. Hossein is still offering his services. I will be meeting him tomorrow at the Iranian customs office. He stresses right from the beginning that you absolutely need a CdP.
