Depends where you're going as to what you need, but normally:
* Passport
* License
* Title
* Rego
* Insurance Card
Most Latin American borders only needed the title and passport, but occasionally all five were required. Carnet, international license, vaccination card and letters of introduction are other docs to think about. I highly recommend 'losing' each document (not the passport) twice and keeping one extra on you or the bike, and another ready to be sent out back home. High quality scans are handy so you can photoshop new and updated versions on the road.
Does losing the title with the bike make any difference? If you're unlucky enough to have the bike nicked, well, it's gone anyway - few travellers have theft insurance that works outside the west...
Good luck,
James
