Hey Birdy,
Depends on the border, but most are not too bad as there are a lot of people wandering around and the many eyes act as somewhat of a deterent.
If you really get a bad feeling or don't like where you have to leave your bike, look for someone to watch over it.
Most times though you can park your bike in an obvious spot and that greatly lessens the risk.
Toss the stuff that you can't lose into your tank bag (carnet, rego, samera, gps, etc. ) and take that with you.
The rest of your gear should have locks on the pannier zippers and as long the duffle, spare tire, and gas container have a few bungies strapping it on, it will look like a lot of work and time for a thief to root through and steal your smelly socks.
Have a great ride.
