04-01-2014, 07:51 AMToday I asked at the Hamilu DMV and nobody knew, if or when a translation of the second test is coming. But I spoke to the beautiful Jane Shao at Yiqi Motorcycle Co. next to the DMV and she confirmed that it is only 800 questions, multiple choice, one correct answer. If you know a bit Chinese, you can try to memorize the correct answers. At least, that is a 100% legal way and it's probably cheaper than the agent (if that matters).
Btw, Jane also said, that besides Junti there would be only Jinqiu offering (3-wheel-)motorcycle classes. But as I already called them, I can confirm that it is still only Junti. Jinqiu discontinued the classes.Shineray X2

If you already have a foreign driving license with a motorcycle endorsement (e.g,. UK), the process is simple, and you only need to write one exam, in English. That exam, however, requires preparation ... it is not an easy exam.
You have three choices:
1) read through this thread to learn how it is done;
2) find a DL agent on The Beijinger website; or,
3) Pay me that 8,800 and I will walk you through every step (just joking ... kinda).
Seriously, it is very easy to do in Beijing if you already have an endorsement. It is complicated only if you do not have an existing endorsement.

04-01-2014, 12:23 PMExactly.
I have no motorcycle endorsement from my home country. Getting one is not an option due to the much higher fees (around 2,500-3,000 EUR) and limited time (30+ hours on the bike, extensive traffic rules training). I did the D license in Beijing in 2011 (3 months, 2,400 RMB, Laoshan) and passed. Unfortunately I had to cancel that license in 2012, when I wanted to transfer my home country car endorsement and was informed it's impossible. A Chinese DL can only be issued ONCE. Afterwards new endorsements can only be added by going to a driving school and doing the road test etc. As I didn't want to do my car endorsement in a Chinese driving school (8,000 RMB), I cancelled the D license, transferred my C1 license, waited another year (stupid rule), then left the country due to an unforseen (yet favourable) job change, came back to China another year later (2014) to a different city with a new passport, changed the passport number in Beijing and the address in Shanghai and now ladies and gentlemen I will redo the D license with the Chinese written exam.
Complicated enough?Shineray X2

04-05-2014, 09:19 AMHaving been licensed through the normal legal channels in both Beijing and Shanghai, I have a hard time understanding why anyone would think it necessary to sneak down to Haikou and pay an agent 8800 RMB. While this might be quasi legal, that probably means it's also quasi illegal. What's more, that price of 8800 sure looks like a "dupe the gullible foreigner" price.
A big part of the price of living in China -- and the inherent satisfaction -- is learning how to get things done. Paying bribes to open back channels does not count. As Lao Jia Huo has said, read through this thread and figure it out. Everyone's experience will differ, as the system is not highly standardized across China, and is being implemented by low-rung bureaucrat saps who have little incentive to see you through to success. But, with persistence and bit of good humor and ingenuity, it can be done.
