That's true, but the agreement only covers Colombian citizens who travel to the provinces of Carchi, Sucumbíos, Imbabura and Esmeraldas for trade purposes, not tourism.
If you're Colombian and plan to take your Colombian plated bike outside of these zones, then you need a TIP.
All foreigners need a TIP, regardless of the plate on the bike.
If you get caught without the TIP, it's a big problem. Bike impounded and a nice fat fine.
For the sake of a little more time at the border, get the TIP and peace of mind.
