I have read that it is impossible to register a second hand motorcycle in your own name. I was also told that if I buy a brand new one, then it can be registered in my name, even if I only have a tourist visa. Is that true ?

No.

My next question is regarding border-crossing with Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. Will I be let through with a Cambodian plated motorcycle if I am the registered owner of it ?

You won't be let into Vietnam on any big bike, and anything over 125 or so is considered big there.

Also is it possible to sell a Vietnamese plated bike here in Cambodia? Thank you in advance for help

You can sell it but it's worth fuck-all without any relevant papers.

Regards selling the bike in cambodia,it all depends on the condition.Viet reg bikes DO sell well in cambodia,(
we are talking bottom of the scale here)a win bought in Vietnam for $250-$500 will sell for possibly the same price depending on how you have looked after it.John probably has no experience in this field as I have.
