Motorbike tour of western China

Yup, it's a big area and we're hoping to find the place that meets our needs: fairly large selection of cheap 150-250cc bikes (of which we need two), and ease of dealing with the whole process.

That BMW is a nice machine but too big and pricey for what we want. We want small, cheap, reliable, easy to fix bikes.

Yeah, Shanghai is a bit out of the way for us but if there's a big difference in price or ease, we would.

Do you think there are not big differences and we should just pick a big city like Guangzhou and try our luck?
