How to: buy a dirt bike in Columbia
 

I know I couldn't find any information on the internet about buying a bike in Columbia as a foreigner before I went but it was suprislingly easy even without being able to speak Spanish!

Info here for any one that is interested ask bellow if you want any further info :)
South to the World cup

So how is NKT doing? And how much is 4 million is USD? What other size bikes are available? Did you shop around much at other shops ... or only the one? Any comparisons? Used? New?

Can a foreigner buy from a private party as well and transfer title to their name?
Or ... what about buying a USED bike from a dealer? Sounds like it's all pretty easy and legal. :D

Have you crossed borders yet with your bike? Do you have the original title in your name? What about insurance?
IIRC, it's required there. What's the best option, in your opinion?

Rather than driving viewers to your blog for info ... i'd love to see a response here, if, and when you've got a minute. bier

Have a safe ride! :Beach:

yeah it seems like a good bike - done 6,000 km on it so far and only 1 issue..carb got blocked which I assume is from the rubbish petrol otherwise no issues and I have given the thing some good riding!

They do a 180 cc version but didnt seem to have it in stock. I think it was a a little over 2,000 USD including registration which is on top of the website prices.
I did look around - Honda-Yamaha are a bit more expensive (around 6.2 million for the 125 dirt bike I think) and you can buy some chinese knock of brands for a little cheaper but they dont look half as good.

Comes with all the official papers and insurance - the dealer sorts that out for you. No issues crossing borders with it, in fact I hardely get stopped by the police which I wonder if has something to do with having a SA bike.

No ideas about buying a user bike ime afraid!

Thanks for the response and details! Very helpful! :D bier

I'm always looking at different options for travel down there.
Ride On! stay safe! :thumbup1:
