Hey,
I searched the HUBB for a couple days now, but didn't find the right Threat to answer my questions about buying a bike in the Far East of Asia.
Just a few words to my idea:
When I peaked out the Window on the flight to Australia one year ago, I saw this incredible country of central Asia flying by underneath me. Since then I have the dream to somehow go back by bike, traveling through Asia.
In the last couple of month I crossed the Pacific from the Caribbean to French Polynesia
with a Sailboat to be on the way to the Philippines now.
From there I want to fly to wherever it is possible to buy a motorcycle cheap and with the right registrations. That probably includes, that it has to be possible to register the bike on my name?? Has somebody experiences?? (Japan, Korea, Russia, China…???)
Has somebody experience with importing a bike from Asia into Europe, particularly Germany? Does that work and if, is it a huge amount of money..?
My Plan is than to travel through Russia, Mongolia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, take the Ferry to Azerbaijan, than Georgia, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Germany.
Is it possible to get the Visas for the countries who require it in eastern Asia (Japan, Philippines, Korea, east of Russia…) ??
Thanks for the help!
Andre
