I literally rode it for 4 days to and from work then I got caught today and they took it and said I had to pay 500rmb to get it back in 3 days.

My question is, can I get this thing street legal and use it, or as it basically a waste of money?
Ho so the bike was not legal ??? and you live and ride in "Shanghai" which is conceded one of the hot spot for illegal bikes ? . You have been lucky to not be put in prison and get a big fine?
Sorry to sound a bit abrupt on this matter . But please do all the other "laowai" a favour and try and get legal please .
hope you get your bike back and you sort out everthing.
