Please post the solution to having the car in UB Mongolia.
Having looked into this in the past, my understanding was you could leave a vehicle in Mongolia and travel to Russia by train. Apparently, that is not correct? I've read that you can sell a motorcycle in Russia, but you will pay about 40% in taxes. Of course, it would be difficult to negotiate that without local help. This is a huge problem for us international travelers. Please keep us updated.
Did you consider giving it as a gift to the border agent? Perhaps they would let you give it to a local church?
I was also told that it is possible to report your motorcycle stolen in Russia. Once in Saint Petersburg, I accidentally left my keys in the bike at night. The bike could have been stolen. Instead, there was a note on my bike. It said I must make an appearance at the police station. I thought I had an appointment with the FSB/KGB! At the police station, I learned that they found the key in my bike. When I showed them my papers, they returned my keys without problem. Therefore, if you need to get your bike stolen, don't park where there are police patrols.
