To buy and register in the UK is easy as long as you have an address to register it to but insurance can be a problem if you are not a resident, Ireland is an option and there is a member here who facilitates this and apparently insurance is less of an issue.
I presume that you both have Pakistani passports which would be useful as US citizens have a problem getting Iranian visas.
The best time to leave is early September, much later and it gets rather cold in eastern Turkey and Iran and earlier it is pretty warm.
What do you plan to do with the bike when you get there? It I believe possible to cross Iran without a carnet de passage for the bike but if it is a temporary importation into Pakistan you will need one there. I am not sure of the process if you wish to permanently import it but something must be possible as there are loads of Ford Transits originally from the UK being driven around Islamabad as mini buses.
Hopefully someone will be along with more information and to correct me if anything I have said is out of date, it is a while since I rode across to Pakistan, do I need to say make sure you ride up the KKH when you get there?
There are a couple of members here from Pakistan who might be able to advise about the bike.
About buying in Ireland here.
