Buying a bike in Colombia, selling in Chile
 
Hi, I'm currently planning a trip to ride from Colombia down to Chile. I have a place in Colombia set to buy the bike from. I'm wondering about selling once I get to the end in Chile. I've read a lot of conflicting information online about whether it's possible or not and most of the similar threads here are over a decade old. I'm wondering if anyone has done something like this recently and can advise whether it's possible to do. Even if I have to take a significant loss on selling the bike, that's fine, better than nothing.

The options I've read about online are:
1. Selling to someone in Chile (possibly illegal and impossible?)
2. Selling to an importer/someone who will do the import themselves (will not give you much for the bike but saves you the headache of doing the import)
3. Selling to another motorcycle traveler (potentially the best option if I can coordinate timing with someone)

Can anyone confirm if they have done any of these methods recently and what the process was like? Thanks
