Hi,

Me and my boyfriend are currently in Vietnam - just did the Ho Chi Minh trail from Saigon up to Hanoi by motorbikes and plan in a maximum a month or so to enter China and do a trip by motorbikes from Guilin towards Tibet and Nepal.

We know that it is impossible to import bikes into China so we are planning to buy 2 motorbikes somewhere in China where is most convenient - we would go East as far to Guilin and from there we will turn West to continue towards Tibet and Nepal.

Would need your help for some things :
1. Where would you recommend to buy 2 decent motorbikes (used ) - a 125 CC and a 150-200 CC - was thinking of the Shinerays G2 and G4 from some years back - or anything similar.
2. How much more or less would they cost ?
3. How to obtain a Chinese motorbike driving license with a tourist visa only ? (Hope it is possible). I don't have a motorbike drivers license but I do have a car driver license for many years. If possible, would you recommend any cities where I could pass the exam ? ( I saw somebody mentioning Guilin, will go there anyways but any other recommendations ?) I really want to play by the country's rule in China!

We both are looking forward to making this trip on motorbikes. Any help is fully appreciated.

Thank you!
A
