I've been south down through Kaz to Kyrgyzstan and will be heading back north to Russia. It's a nice country with great people. Only one drawback, the constant speed traps where the police just want your money. After being caught in one, and escaping after paying 'only' 2000Tenge (about £6.50), a local biker told me that they can't actually prosecute bikers because Kaz law says they must have a photo of the front number plate and we don't have one.  He advised to just wait them out.
If you're ever in the country, near Almaty, and need bike help then go to Freerider Motorcycle Salon. They will move heaven and earth to help you and at a very low price. I serviced my bike in their workshop, having bought the oil from them - no other charge. Fantastic. A few days later my rear wheel bearings failed. They supplied and fitted them for a total of £27. Check out their website at: Мотоциклы
