Dear JMo, skinny and Dave,
many thanks for your prompt answers. That already helped a lot.
@JMo:
I actually have a dealer in Idaho, who would let me register the bike on one of his freinds adresses in Oregon (with 0% tax). Talking to the DMV in Oregan, they said that they do not allow to register a vehicle on a foreigners name. It had to be registered on a local. I could only be in the title as the secondary user or owner. Do you have any other information in this? Will I gat into trouble beeing the secondary owner of the vehicle at any of the central / south american borders?
@Skinny:
Is it really necessary to aply for that permit online beforehand or can I do that at the border in person?
@Dave:
You mean they registered and went over the border immediately thereafter? So, I do not need the title papers at all to get into mexico etc.?
Again, many thanks for your support,
Bjoern
