Vroom Vroom, any pointers on what make/ model would be the most wise 5,000 RMB expenditure.

Wait until I make it back home to Texas for Christmas and tell the guys at the Husqvarna/ KTM shop in town the prices a bike goes for in China. They will freak out. Thank you for your generous offer to help show me around your province, once I get my bike situation sorted out I hope to make it down to your neck of the woods and to the eternal spring land of Kunming/ Yunnan.

I do have one question though... how hard is it to plate a dual sport? I will search the forum harder, but it seems my best option is to register the bike in Jiangsu or a bordering province- just wanted to see if you had any other advice for getting legal. I saw where one fellow on this forum was in jail for eleven days. Don't want to have that happen.

Thanks in advance!
