Hi and another welcome to this place

How much time do you take for this trip? IUf you have enough time, you may be able to do it. Tokiokid from this forum did a similar one last year, two up on a small bike, sneaking through the various checkpoints. Foreigners aren't too welcome, particular in the eastern part of tebiT and the natebiT areas of neighboring provinces.
I am sure the Kunming guys will be a great help for you to get a bike.

Regarding the driving license agreement between your and the Chinese government, I woulnd't be too sure of - TIC

Good luck and keep us updated

The sneaked in fake Xinjianger --1986 http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/640543.html

Thanks for the link humanbeing,
This is probably what first got me started about riding in China. 2 Aussies travel from Tokyo to London on a couple of used Honda TransAlps, in 1994! 1994, no {GPS, cellphones, roads in China, people who speak English...}. They may have been the first to enter China with foriegn bikes. A truely inspiring story.
But I can't understand this report from 1986, is there a report in English?

Written by a women about herself/ the "ex" / fake Xinjiang friend (US journalist w/ passable spoken Mandarin & near 0% chinese reading skill)'s roadtrip. That wonman lost contact with that foreign guy & heard he was working w/ Le Figaro in Paris.
Use translate.google.com for very rough translaton. The picture is most valuable
