ARGENTINA OR CHILE - which country should I buy bike to travel all around SA?
Hi all,
There is a lot of posts on this topics and I have studied most of them but as I found laws are changing fast and honestly I am still not sure about current situation. So I would really appreciate any help or information.
Basically I will arrive to SA on the end of October. I still haven't bought flight ticket because first I want to know where I can buy bike. So I am considering ARGENTINA or CHILE. Because I would like to go to very south(Ushuaia) and then travel up North. The thing is that I would like to visit many countries and I plan that my trip will be at least 10-12 months. So the most important questions are:
1. Which country is better to buy motorcycle, Argentina or Chile? Or none of them?
2. Having Argentinean or Chilean motorcycle, would I be able to cross borders to Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia?
3. Is it possible to buy in Argentina or Chile and then sell in for example in Columbia or Ecuador?
I have read some posts that it is completely impossible to cross out of Chile on any bike being foreigner but it seems very strange. Could you please give any advice what to do? I have dream about travelling all around SA on motorcycle and I will do it, even if I need to buy and sell bike in every country I am going to visit. But it seems a bit crazy like for European standards.
Thank You in advance!!
