#1 Re: wanted shanghai plate .either is ok03-28-2012, 12:09 PM
Whoah Paul, that's a rare request, and a little bit too early for me !
Do you want those plates now, or are you able to wait until mid-June ? I have Hu A plates, 100% legal and ok for transfer, for my YBR250, which I will sell after my round-china trip this spring, 'cause I'll leave China after that.
No idea about the current price though : what is it up to nowadays, more than RMB 50,000 ?
Tell me if you're ready to wait, I'm interested for sure !

06-04-2012, 11:57 AMDear Paul,
I doubt you are going to find anyone in this forum who is prepared to part with a legal Shanghai plate. The latest word on the street is that 沪A plates are in such short supply that the price no longer mimics that of car plates, but now exceeds them. This past month the price of a car plate was 64,000 RMB, while that for a bike plate was 68,000 RMB. Not sure about 沪C plates, though these have been going for about 8000 RMB. Bike plates are not unavailable, they just are not being issued by the Vehicle Management Bureau and have not been for years. Worse yet, a bike plate can be transfered to a car, but a car plate cannot be transfered to a bike, so the absolute supply of bike plates shrinks every time a bike plate is bolted to a car. Hence the price premium.
Most dealers of long service know brokers who can obtain bike plates. Have you tried this option? PM me if you need an introduction.
Cheers!jkp

64000-68000 RMB for a plate hate to think what they'll go for in ten years.
I'm guessing some low life will threaten to kill you just for your plate.

But a low life thief would not be able to cash in on a stolen plate's value unless he managed to get all your papers and go through a legal transfer process, which requires signatures and chops and fees to release the plate to a new owner. Replacing a stolen plate is a hassle, but costs only a couple hundred rmb.

euphonius, i was hoping i could find someone moving on n letting it go, just a punt. but after not being able to ride(or walk) for 5 years . i will do anything to get mounted again.
and about the cost n getting threatened for my plate. it just goes with the territory. paid a lot more for a lot less n been threatened for less before. 'shit append'...........
but as you said its no use to no one without the docs. I'm more worried about getting my ride stolen, or more so what would happen if i caught them in the act ..hahahaha
the truth is i live in central sh but can get n would go with a C licence, if i could be sure its just a fine and not fine and points for riding inner ring. and if i was parked they wouldn't impound my bike. if i could be sure of this then i will get a C. cos 8k ish for an C plus 20 x 200Y fine is still a lot less than 60k for an A....
i can even get an out of town plate for 200. but i found out i can't ride anywhere n if i do they impound it n send it back to the city its reg in. bugger.....
at the end of the day its about riding... so this is just a distraction.. a very expensive one, but when i looked in jan it was 52k last year 45k now 65k....to me thats a damn site more than u get in the bank.. i now its a risk as is everything. but you got to 'stand for something or you'll fall for anything'
