Ygio - yes thats correct. Usually people have problems when they enter Kazakhstan first. Kazakh customs should give out the import permit - but it seems Kazakh customs dont know their jobs as well as Russian customs. From Kyrgyzstan to Kazakhstan seems to be the main guilty party.

Road riding
But this does not specially mean paved Road.
What is off road anyway? 
When i think about the streets in Mongolia, this is still a road, but many people consider this an Off road area
No, i want to get trough kind of fast, but still want to see something.
I dont mind using bad roads, but i dont need to go really offroad ( with offroad i mean no streets, just really over a hill or anything similar )
In Mongolia i will have my Enduro roads anyway

You can download the file I posted in this northern Asia forum, most of what you are looking for is in it and recent(2012). Baikonur is very much worth visiting, spectecular but to be arranged 3 months in advance.
Groetjes,

Yes that is correct, they just waved me on last year. I hadn't handed over my previous temp import when I left Kaz so just kept that for leaving Russia.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
