Regarding the taxes, it looks like importing a bike into the states is fairly straightforward. Some (fairly strict) EPA and DOT regulations to comply with, and then a 1.5% to 2.9% import duty. But I haven't done it personally, so I'm not sure if there are more complications (as there usually are).
My thinking is that if the bike is NOT registered in Argentina, then exporting it shouldn't be a huge hassle, assuming the bike comes with the proper paperwork and temporary import permit.
Exporting a Argentine registered bike seems to be a difficult scenario to work out.
