Buying a bbike in argentina
The buying of a new bike in Argentina is indeed extremely simple. I am the christine of Xfiltrate's previous post and just wanted tp corroborate what Ed has written.. First I must say what wonderful people both Ed and Elisa are! they couldn't have been more helpful and welcoming and have made the process of buying a bike here easy and enjoyable. I thouroughly recommend anyone wishing to buy a bike here and store it for later trips to contact Ed (Xfiltrate). The process was so easy. Go to Ploice station nearest your hotel - they come round to the hotel the following day (if not a holiday) to present you your domicilio. Take that to the AFIP office which covers your hotel (ring the main number to check what it is) It takes ten minutes to get CDI . Go to Honda dealer with CDI number and Domicilio. Pay for bike - sign some papers and wait a few days. Extremely simple even with my crap spanish!
I am off to pick up the bike tomorrow and it really couldnt have been easier.
So again, thanks Ed and Elisa for everything.
Christine
