After 3 or 4 months i wanna sell my KLR650 on witch i've been touring around the US and Mexico, El salvador, belize, etc.

My girlfriend is landing in Cancun on 28 july, and i think i'm not going to ride to much with her to keep her in one piece i give myself a month after 28 july to sell him and still ride a bit with her on the back, 3 moths to go from 28 july

i wanna have to best solution to sell him without to much hassle, selling near cancun, or belize, or another country in the neigbourhood.

any suggestions on where to sell the bike?

is going back to the US an option? easy selling on craigslist.... can i take a ferry from cancun to somewhere in the US?

this is the bike and extras:

KLR 650 2004
now 10000 miles, maybe double when selling, not even
red/black

brand new progressive rear spring (lifetime warranty)
ims footpegs
cycra handguards
heavy duty tubes
jesse luggage (brand new)
diskguard
new handgrips
etc


what do you guys think???



Thanks,
Stijn

When I came into Chetumal from Belice a year and a half ago, I did not have to register the bike with the aduana. They told me that Quintana Roo was a "free state" with vehicles. In other words, if I wanted to travel to other states in Mx. I would have to register the bike with aduana at Punta Sam but to keep the bike in Quintana Roo there was no such requirement. My bike is still there.
If things are the same way you should be able to sell it thru a bike shop. KLR is a popular bike in Mx.
If you already have the bike registered with aduana you might go to belice and return. Just have the Mx. aduana check the bike out of country before going into Belice.
I know a shop or two in Playa del Carmen if you want to make inquiries.
