New rumor about Beijing motorbike ban inside 6th ring

[PeteZ]

Correction to my previous post: non-Beijing bikes used to be allowed outside the 4th Ring which gave them the same status as Jing B plated bikes. So quite a big blow for motorcyclists from outside of Beijing wanting to visit the city.

I know it's bad but TIC and that's how it's done here.

Thats how it is done all over .... I live outside the 5th .. right outside... own both plated and non plated bikes.. so far....no problems and gas stations will sell without checking ...use my non plated bike in the city all the time.. so far, even when the cops are checking the autos around me at a stop light .. they just walk on by with hardly a look our way....
