Hi! I'm new to the group and have searched the forums, but I don't seem to find out how to register a new motorcycle here.

I managed to get my Chinese license and now want to buy a bike. I've been to a few shops in Mudu and Meicun (just outside of suzhou). They tell me that I need to give them ~800 rmb and wait a few weeks. They said that I can't get a legal plate in Suzhou or Wuxi. Something seems strange about this. Does this seem to be the way to go? I also had a guy tell me I could buy a used bike with a legal plate.

Anyone with ideas or suggestions?

Thanks,
Bill
