    Yantsepete,
    Talked to my wife and she said that she didn't want to go since she had terrible altitude sickness at Cusco (12,000feet) but I am good to go.

    Is a non side car bike available? What documents do I need other than a passport and a USA Florida drivers license with motorcycle endorsement?

    Barnone! Now that's what a call an excellent wife!

    I'm thinking you could pack the Pitster Pro in your carry-on and lash it to the stern of one of those Wehrmacht buggies. Give a shout if your itinerary includes Shanghai.

    cheers

    i have a Solo Chang, like a Brick on two Wheels, but Fun to Ride.

    I would need A Copy of your Passport, Copy of chinese Visa, a Copy of your national Bike License and if you are working in China a Letter from your Company. Details about what should be in this letter i can send to your email.

    Otherwise i may have some Yamaha YBR in Lhasa available from a friend. The thing is you would be much faster with this bike but you could go back and forward circling around us.

    Do you you have a website with more information?
    Yangtsepete's tour is alot better priced than another company that I saw that was charging a whooping $13000USD for a motorcycle trip from Lahsa to Kathmandu altough that did include airfares from Australia to Beijing and the train from Beijing to Lahsa.

    yes for sure, need to mention this. Heinrich from Asiabiketours have some nice YBR in Lhasa, so everyone who think the Changs are too slow can get on these nice Bikes.

    Heinrich see you in Lhasa beginning of May.
