Hi Edd ! I found one contact from this city at the BMW owners motorcycle forum of Russia. Try to call him or to send a sms. I think he has a private garage and he will be able to help you. Good luck.

In Russia I suppose you have a temporary import document wich allows your bike to stay only 3 months in the country, so I think the nearest option is Mongolia.

Storage in Mongolia
 

Can help out here if needed in Ulaanbaatar...
but you can only keep it here 90 days without having to pay duty...

There is an option to pay a "deposit" to the government for the duty which is refundable when you export the bike.

By law, temporary import of a vehicle means your vehicle has to leave the country with you.

In practice, there were precedents of leaving vehicle for a year in the Russia, but I don't think it was easy to retreat the vehicle afterwards. I wouldn't rely on that.

thank you for your replies...

still not really sure where to go from here.
ozz, you need a carnet, so it makes me think twice about going to se asia.
perhaps ship it back to cdn
or, some how figure out a way back to europe, maybe the train out of vlad to moscow and leave it in the EU...

either way, i need to figure things out fast...

cheers

Hi. It is still without any official paperwork possible at our place in Osh, Kyrgyzstan. We have about 10 bikes at the present. CHeers
