    G'Day,

    Was away on business in Southern China for a week and might have missed the recent changes, great news, sounds like motorbikes are allowed on expressways / highways now?

    Wonder who the biggest moron is in this thread? Speed on.....

    yes but you clearly on the sign it is not a gsx-r that is banned... anyway it doesn't look like a sportbike at all, look at the position of the rider !!! :D


    one of my concern for this trip would definitely be the maintenance... there is no way i keep my tires more than 4000 km on my fireblade and 6000km on my r1150r, not sure it is that easy to get a spare michelin or bridgestone in kazakstan

    You could carry a spare chain or pick one up at some point a while before you need it. I don't know if you could carry a spare tire but if you start checking into where they have them you could get them switched someplace in China and ride them till you can almost see the steel but it would risk the tire deforming at high speed, which is dangerous.
    You might not be able to find good namebrands but I think you could find something that would fit on your wheels. The worse case scenario is getting stranded someplace and having to find a replacement tire then, but that would probably only set you back a few days at most.

    I mean all those circle wheelies and endos are cool and everything, personally though I prefer to drop the front tire down to 17-25psi for rolling endos, and run more teeth on my chain ring for wheelies. Then all the luggage you're gonna need is really gonna effect the balance of the bike when you are wheelieing and you are gonna have to be extra careful when you clutch it up that you don't flip her! Also with those stunting pressures the bike will handle like jello.
