Hi Doogle

See what Jan comes back with and did you get a PM from BikerDoc ?

When do you think you will come to Thailand ?

I am based in Chiang Rai and have good contact with renting a bike.

Brain the owner is a friend of mine so some deal could be had with him also if you rent from him he will let you take the bike into Laos
and arrange all the paperwork needed for you and the bike to go to Laos.
It will be best to meet up in Thailand and talk about China face to face.
To contact me download WeChat app and find me by my username.
WeChat I.D. Princeinhainan.

All The best riding roads are in the north of Thailand from Chiang Mai up.
What bike are you thinking to rent/buy?


But most places I would think you could sell a bike for parts and get at least half the purchase price.
You need to learn a lot more about China mate if you think that? more like 20% of the purchase price IF you are lucky.
