What to do with bike after US/Ushuaia trip
I'm in the planning stages and would appreciate info from those that have been there.
The bike, a late model KLR 650.
The route, crossing into Mexico near Brownsville, traveling rather quickly through Mexico (as in 3 or 4 days). Then slowing down through Central America, particularly Costa Rica. Fly from Panama City to Bogota, then meander through SA to Ushuaia. Perhaps ride north to Buenos Aires for a bit.
There is a time frame. Approx 3 - 4 months. Then back to work.
Do most people ship their bike back, abandon it, or go to some country where they can get "some" money out of it? Riding it back really isn't an option for me given the time constraints.
From the research I've completed, shipping a bike from BA to say Chicago will run $1500 - $2000 by the time everything is said/done.
What do most people do?
