I got this answer, from http://thepersianride.com
You could indeed temporary import your bike although you have to exit again after exactly 7 days which is very little to explore the real Persia.
Best regards,
Stephan

I was also in talk with Hussein from Urmia, he suggest the same , but for 7 days and price is high. and my ADAC carnet is of no use. I have to re-think if I go to Iran. With all the situation developing.

If you have to go enter Iran for further travelling, the best option : you can hire a closed pick-up truck or trailer , the custom official sealed the container /bike at entry point, which you can open at exit border.
For this option you dont need anyones help, just you need to find pick truck probably with driver.
I didnt/willnot try myself, but the official at the https://en.taci.ir/ suggested me. My plan was to enter Iran and then ship transport my moto from bandar abbas to Mumbai. but it seems now very difficult

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive.
