When you take your bike into Russia you will get a temporary import certificate at the border. When you leave this will need to be checked in at customs and your vehicle need to be present with you as you exit. I think it will be very difficult to leave a western registered bike there without some costs and a huge amount of paperwork.
As for three months this is enough time to travel a huge distance through Russia as Moscow really is not so far - at a very comfortable pace you will do it in a week, if you want to go all out probably three or four days from Paris will see you comfortably into Moscow. It all depends on your route and timescale. I may see you on the road out that way as I will be in Russia for 3 month next spring. As for routes depends what you want the golden ring cities north of Moscow are very nice, St Petersburg wonderful for a city, the world war 2 trail along Kursk and the western front interesting, then deeper in you have the real workings of Russia where the people are great if you get to know them. I am sure you will find your own places of interest but do take in some of Europe as well while your here.
