Hello,
I am new to this forum. Its good to see there is such an alive community in china that is eager to drive bikes despite all the troubles that "living in china" can put in your way.
My buddy slenderman pretty much described whats our plan already
We would like to get bikes to do some weekend trips and maybe a few "bigger" roadtrips around the country.
My friend has a car/motorcycle license from italy and plans to transfer that to an C1E license very soon, - he just faced the fact that there was an update on the test questions and till now there is no english version available.

My problem is, that i have a german car license but no motorcycle license. I did some research and found out that you can make a motorcycle license in shanghai from scratch with a little effort.
I have a residence permit and all necessary papers. What I couldnt find till now is a driving school that teaches in english. that seems to not exist.
Does anyone know the procedure and has some useful contacts on how i could get a chinese motorcycle license?

How careful do they check the translated original at the test center? I was thinking just going there and apply for a C1E license right away, see what happens
I know how to drive a bike and if there is a way to get that license without all the hassle of finding a school and do lessons etc... would also be appreciated.
