Life In China Transportation Motorcycle

 

Buying a Motorcycle

In 1986, China officially announced that no more motorcycle license plates would be made. What does this mean? Basically, either buy a used one made and registered before 1986, or buy a trashed one made and registered before 1986 and transfer the plate to a new working one.

"Here is the story of my trip across China, perhaps foolishly taken alone, illegally, and on a Chinese motorcycle. I was the first free tourist to take a journey such as this, with her own wheels and free to wander at whim -- that is, as long as I was successful at dodging the traffic police."

Carla King was first introduced to China through ExpatsInChina back in 1998 when we were known as ICIC. We published her travelogues on the internet as she toured from Beijing to the Tibetan border and back. If you would like to "meet" Carla, please visit her The China Road Dispatches.
