BONJOUR JE PREPARE DEPUIS LE DEBUT DE L'ETE UN VOYAGE EN MOTO DE BUENOS AIRES A USHUAIA POUR DECEMBRE
AVEC UNE MOTO 125
JE VOUDRAI SAVOIR COMMENT CA FONCTIONNE
SI JE DECIDE DE L'ACHETER SUR PLACE
EST CE POSSIBLE POUR UN TOURISTE
COMMENT SA FONCTIONNE POUR L'ASSURANCE ET TOUT LE RESTE...
MERCI D'AVANCE.
Hello
Je suis a BA en ce moment, mon projet etait aussi le tour d'amerique du sud a moto, alors voila ce que j'ai du faire, j'ai un passeport espagnol mais je pense que pour toi c'est la meme procedure :
Tu dois faire un certificat de domicile, pour moi ca a passe en donnant l'adresse de l'hostal ou je suis mais je sais que des fois ca peut posser probleme alors si tu connais qqun chez qui tu peux donner l'adresse c'est mieux.
Ensuite tu sois faire le document CDI a l' AFIP sorrespondant au quartier ou tu loges et normalement c'est bon pour pouvoir acheter la moto.
Par contre une 125 me semble un peut leger et sache que au niveau assurance aucune assurance va t'assurer pour vol pour une petite cylindree ni en casco complete, seulement en RC.
Voila en principe c'est tout, moi j'attends la mienne ces jours j'ai hate se quitter la ville !
Si je peux t'aider pour d'autres choses ...
Pedro
SALUT PEDRO
MERCI POUR CES INFO
JE ME DOUTAIT QU'IL ME FAUT UN CERTIFICAT DE DOMICILE
EST IL NECESSAIRE QUE JE CONNAISE QQUN A BUENOS AIRES
CAR G MA TANTE QUI VIT O BRESIL
SINON QUES QUE LE DOCUMENT CDI ?
JE ME LIMITTE A UNE 125 CAR JE NE POSSEDE PAS LE VRAI PERMIS MOTO SIMPLEMENT LE A1
SINON SI TU CONNAIT UN BON ENDROIT A BA POUR SE PROCURER UNE MOTO SA SERAIT COOL
TU COMPTE PASSER LES FRONTIERE EN MOTO
CROIT TU QUE C POSSIBLE AVEC UNE MOTO HT SUR PLACE CAR JAURAI BIEN FAIT UN PETIT DETOUR PAR LE CHILI
ALLER BONNE ROUTE
ET SUERTE ....
Salut,
tu trouveras du choix en 125, 175, des 200 et aussi des 250 en Argentine: surtout des Honda ou bien des productions locales à mécanique "Honda" sous licence;tu trouveras à t'assurer à Buenos aires(je l'ai fait en octobre 2007 auprès de MAPFRE, au centre ville);
penses à te faire délivrer un permis international, en France (gratuit en préfecture); prévois aussi le chargement, sur place, de tes bagages...réfléchis bien avant d'arriver dans le pays. Sur place, penses toujours à emporter une réserve d'essence!!!
Tu pourras aussi passer au Chili mais regardes bien les cartes avant de prévoir ton périple...on ne traverse pas la cordillière n'importe où!
Suerte, y féliz viaje.
Théo
Hello
Je ne saurais pas t'expliquer axactement pour le CDI, c'est un document d'un service public et ils le font gratuitement et sur le moment.
Pour la moto je suis d'accord avec Theo, tu peux regarder sur internet les modeles qui existent ici, il me semble que Honda est mieux representé et plusiers garages en ville que tu trouves aussi sur le net.
Comme je te disais moi j'ai pu faire le certificat de domicile avec l'adresse de l'hotel pour le reste ...
En principe pas de probleme pour passer les frontieres selon mes renseignements et je l'espere car j'ai l'intention de faire plusieurs pays !
Voila, je peux pas etre plus affirmatif que ca sur les renseignements car j'attends encore pour la mienne et j'ai pas encore fini de faire tous les papiers donc ...
A+

Merci Th2nor.... pour ces adresses... je serai dans Bs As capitale et irai donc surement sur independancia...
mais a propos de la revente... quelqu'un a t il des experiences? est ce facile de revendre une moto a buenos aires ou non? et y a t il des pieges a eviter?
Merci pour vos renseignements et discussions, c est toujours interessant d avoir de bonnes adresses ou conseils dans ce genre de pays.
Je suis actuellement a Buenos Aires avec un pote, et on vient de faire 3 mois de moto en Amerique du Sud, avec des petites 125, (Suzuki GN 125 qu on a achetees en Equateur) de Quito a Buenos Aires, en passant par un petit bout de Patagonie!
Voyage incroyable, magique, et les motos ont tenu, apres 12 000 kms! Donc c est possible en 125, (meme s il faut un peu plus de patience) il faut juste prendre une bonne marque au depart, neuve ou bonne occas, et en prendre soin regulierement. Donc Honda, Yamaha, ou Suzuki c est solide et lês pieces sont em general faciles a trouver em amerique Du sud.
Em ce qui concerne l assurance il y a un truc qui s appelle ici La SOAT, et qui est supposee etre valable dans le pays d achat de la soat, mais em theorie, personne ne verifie et on a fait nos trois móis avec celle de l equateur.
Le passage de frontiere se fait sans pb si vous avez tous les papiers de moto et evidemment passeport, meme s il vont a chaque fois vous demander ce que vous allez faire dês motos dans leur pays (revendre, passer ds um autre pays, etc..)
Voila en gros les petits conseils que nous pouvons donner.
Autre chose, nous allons rentrer dans une semaine em France, et nous ne savons pás que faire de nos motos. Si qqun est interesse par une (ou deux) 125 qui ont deja fait une bonne partie de l amerique sud, on peut vs les revendre a un prix d ami, et les laisser ds un endroit sur ici, si vous arrivez plus tard. (qqun est il au courant des contraintes legales pour revendre un vehicule a l etranger??)
Mais en tout cas, faites ce voyage en moto, c est ouf!

Hi there! My daughter and I are heading to Malta and I’d love to rent a scooter. Does anyone know any good places to rent from and what the budget would be for a week?
Hello, I’m retired and planning a roughly 3-week motorcycle trip (1200gs). The dates aren’t set in stone yet, and everything’s open to discussion—I’m pretty flexible with the planning.
I’d like to ride from Mahajanga to Morondava, sticking as close to the coast as possible—using roads and tracks—in September 2026. If you’ve got any suggestions, let me know! 😉
hi
planning to ride through Rajasthan on a motorcycle in January 2027 and I’d love to hear about the road conditions.
I’ll be riding with a buddy on a Royal Enfield that I’ll rent in Delhi.
Thanks for your tips!
hi there
I’m planning a 3-week motorcycle road trip in Rajasthan, renting a Royal Enfield in Delhi in January 2027.
I’d love to get some tips on a fun itinerary and hear your thoughts on the roads up north.
I’ve ridden a motorcycle in southern India—Kochi to Madurai—about 10 years ago.
Thanks for sharing your experience, and I’m all ears for any great tips you’ve got!
Best regards
hi there
I’d like to ride the RN 12 by motorcycle in September.
I’d love to know the main challenges—I ride a 300cc and do enduro in France.
Thanks for your tips!
I’m planning a motorcycle road trip to Armenia and Georgia in September 2026 or May 2027. I’m looking for one or more riders (male or female) who’d like to explore these countries with me.
Along the way, we’ll visit Cappadocia, the capitals Yerevan, Tbilisi, Sofia, Skopje, and other cities—we can finalize the route and roadbook later.
This trip requires experience with long motorcycle journeys, as we’ll cover around 7,000 km over 5 or 6 weeks (or more, depending on sightseeing and time spent).
I don’t expect dozens of applicants, since motorcycle riders are few and far between on this forum, but I’m putting this out there anyway.
I’m starting to think about a trip that’s really close to my heart: Algeria by motorcycle, specifically the southern part of the country. It’d be for January 2025, and I’ve got two main questions:
Is it possible for an individual on a motorcycle to travel freely, outside of any organized tour, or does the regulation require some kind of supervision in the Algerian Sahara region?
Is the Hoggar massif accessible by road or by (rideable) tracks?
Beyond the official recommendations, I’m really looking for your firsthand experiences.
Thanks so much for your answers, and sorry if my questions are a bit newbie!
Hi, I’d like to take a 15-day "break" to get away from the surrounding hustle and bustle.
Why not explore the Peloponnese!
I’m not particularly drawn to museums, ruins, or monuments.
I want to experience local life—small villages, seaside spots, beaches, and the interior if the landscapes are extraordinary.
Ideally, coming from Athens, I’d take a bus or train to get as close as possible to a starting point, then rent a scooter (125cc) to explore by taking secondary roads or even coastal paths. I’d stay in 2-3 places for a few days each to discover their surroundings.
Do a loop.
What do you think would be the ideal itinerary?
From Athens, the best option would be to take either a flight or a bus to Kalamata. Rent a scooter and head either west or east. Is there a tertiary road (very lightly trafficked) or a path where I can ride slowly, take it easy, and enjoy the scenery without being bothered by traffic? I’d like to go all the way to Monemvasia, still hugging the coast. I need to find a way to avoid returning to Kalamata to drop off the scooter and catch a flight—maybe a small town where the train stops so I can head back to Athens.
Thanks in advance for your tips.
I want to rent an off-road style motorcycle to get around the coast during my trip to Ecuador. I’m only finding options in Quito. Do you have any suggestions for me?
Hi there,
I’m planning a sidecar trip to South America for 4 or 5 months at the end of this year.
I’m looking for info on shipping my vehicle by sea—possibly to Uruguay or another destination, as I haven’t finalized anything yet.
How do you get visas for the countries I’ll be crossing: Uruguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, and Chile? Are they e-Visas, obtained at the border, or through embassies?
Where can I get vehicle insurance?
Lastly, if any bikers want to join us (my partner and me), we’re open to that possibility too.

I’ve got 15 days off in June and I’m pretty undecided about where to go for a motorcycle road trip. Two strong desires are pulling me in different directions: Corsica or Norway.
Corsica has been a dream of mine for a long time: legendary roads, stunning landscapes, a unique vibe, and the perfect mix of sea and mountains. At the same time, I’m wondering if 2 weeks might be *too much* for Corsica—risking feeling like I’ve seen it all too quickly, especially on a bike.
Since I also have an extra week free in May, I could use that specifically for Corsica. Maybe splitting it into two trips would make more sense? If so, which routes or regions would be the most interesting to plan for a 7-day trip?
On the other hand, Norway is *super* appealing. The landscapes look incredible, totally different from anything I’ve experienced, and it’d be a real “wow” trip. I know 15 days is still short for such a vast country. Getting all the way to the North Cape seems pretty much impossible in that time, but I’m curious about what realistic routes could be planned.
So I’m wondering:
Is it better to save Norway for next year, take 3 weeks off, and do it *properly*?
Or are 15 days enough for a first amazing taste of the country?
I’d love to hear about your experiences—whether it’s Corsica (ideal duration, routes) or Norway (what’s realistic in 2 weeks on a bike).
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
Hello,
I'm thinking of buying a used small motorcycle to travel around the country for a month and a half.
I've done this in other countries without putting the registration in my name—is that possible in Guinea given the apparently frequent checks, or do I have to go through the paperwork?
Thanks.
Hello,
My dream is to ride Route 66 by motorcycle. I have a disability—while I’m not in a wheelchair, my walking mobility is reduced.
The ideal scenario would be to have a motorcycle driver and ride as their passenger on an organized trip.
Are there any guides or services like this offered by travel agencies?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Hello,
I’ve got a plan with a friend to go on a motorcycle road trip in 2028 or 2029, starting in Santiago de Chile and ending in Ushuaia, for about a month.
Has anyone done a trip like this before, and what’s the best time of year?
I’ve heard there can be quite a bit of wind depending on the season.
Thanks for any tips!
Cheers,
PA
I'm seriously considering heading to Nepal to do some nice motorcycle loops... my goal is also to do the Kailash Yatra round trip from Kathmandu, in a small group with a guide, in May '26... but here's the thing—I'm solo! So if you're up for sharing a similar adventure, hit me up... Cheers, Frankoys
tout est dans le titre: me rendant prochainement a Krabi, et désirant louer un scooter pour quelques semaines, mais lisant des commentaires de risques d'arnaques en tout genre, je m'adresse a vous pour savoir ou et comment (lire ''la bonne facon'') de louer un scooter.
Merci de vos réponses et conseils.
Hello everyone! Like every year, a winter migration is on the horizon (revised plan): this time, it’ll be Dakar, or even Abidjan, via Morocco, Mauritania, and Senegal.
Looking for an experienced motorcyclist or pillion rider—small build preferred—on a GSA 1250 with a comfy seat and luggage setup, available from early November to late December 2025. I’d like to plan the trip together (important to me) to make sure we’re on the same wavelength.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Looking for travel companions to ride from France to Senegal by motorcycle.
I’m Paul, 37, and I’ve already done a bit of riding in Morocco.
For now, I’m solo, riding a 1998 SUZUKI DR 650 with some basic gear to keep things smooth. I’ll have a tent so we can do a few nights under the stars.
We’ll need to coordinate departure dates—"ideally in November."
I’m currently checking out routes to take. Any tips would be welcome! :)
I’m heading to Vietnam and Laos with a buddy next week for a month.
We’re thinking of renting motorbikes, especially to do the Ha Giang Loop. We don’t have an international license, just our Belgian one. Is that enough? If not, is it risky?
In November, we’re planning to do the Ha Giang loop and the RC4 by motorbike without a guide. 😎
We’re looking for a decent place to stay/rent in Ha Giang.
If anyone has any info, we’d be really interested.
Hello! We’re planning a motorcycle trip that will include a visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau in June 2026.
We’re unsure (still debating) whether we should stay at a hotel on-site and get to the memorial with an Uber (leaving our bikes at the hotel) and book a guided tour, or base ourselves in Kraków and take a tour that includes transport.
One thing’s for sure—we’d prefer a guide in French since we don’t speak English 😅.
Could you share your experiences or advice?
I understand we need to book online rather than on-site.
Thanks in advance for your replies!
Hello,
Next October we’re planning to ride the Ruta de la Plata by motorcycle—a historic Spanish route that runs from Gijón to Seville, also known as the N630.
Has anyone here already ridden it?
Unfortunately, I’m worried that parts of the N630 may have disappeared or merged with the A66 motorway, forcing us to ride long stretches of highway, which we’d rather avoid.
Thanks in advance for any tips or details about this route!
Hi there!
I’m currently planning a 9-day route starting from Marrakech with my husband. We land on the morning of June 13th—so soon! 😊
And we’re flying back to France on June 21st at 9 PM!
We’ve rented two Royal Enfield 450s.
This is our first motorcycle trip in Morocco. I got my license two years ago with the dream of taking this kind of trip, and here we are! ✌️😍
In France, we usually ride between 300 to 400 km per day on roadsters. We’re not used to off-road tracks, so we’re looking for easy ones 😅—especially for me 😅.
For Morocco, I’ve planned stages of 200 to 300 km per day.
Here’s the idea:
Day 1 (departure at noon): Marrakech - Tizi n Test - Tafingoult (165 km - 4h15)
Day 2: Tafingoult - Amzarkou - Telouet (200 km - 4h34)
Day 3: Telouet - Ait Benhaddou - Ouarzazate - Boumalne (200 km - 3h30) (+ Vallée des Roses maybe)
Day 4: Boumalne - Dades Gorges - Agoudal - Todra Gorges - Tinghir - Goulmima (291 km - 6h)
Day 5: Goulmima - Midelt - Cirque Jaffar - Agoudim (280 km - 4h45)
Day 6: Agoudim - Imilchil - Aghbala - El Ksiba (280 km - 4h45)
Day 7: El Ksiba - La Cathédrale - Zaouiat Ahansal (212 km - 4h20)
Day 8: Ahansal - Ouzoud Waterfalls via R 302 (188 km - 4h22)
Day 9: Ouzoud - Marrakech (160 km - 2h43)
End of the trip 😮.
What do you think?
We haven’t booked any hotels—is that a problem? We were thinking of deciding day by day based on our progress.
Can we take our helmets with us in the cabin, or should we pack them in the checked luggage surrounded by clothes to avoid damage?
Hey there, fellow riders,
I’m really keen on a motorcycle trip to Morocco, specifically the Middle Atlas. Does anyone have any info or tips on this idea? Planning to go in September or October...
Looking forward to hearing from you!
