To be honest, crating the bike seems somewhat counter to the spirit of the whole adventure. At that point you might as well ship your bike back home from Kyrgyzstan, fly to Asia and buy a small bike locally.
I'd try to find the budget for the full cross-China trip. You can skip China entirely depending on your passport, whether or not you can get into Iran - Turkey-Iran-Pakistan-India should be doable, or alternatively you can do the Michael Palin route and go Turkey-Iraq-Saudi Arabia and find a boat from UAE or Oman to India. But Myanmar remains an issue - not only closed land borders in the west, but they're also in the middle of a civil war right now, including fighting right up to the Thai border just recently.
EDIT: And same point as always about Singapore: it's a very cool place to visit, but a disproportionate headache to enter with your own vehicle. Put your bike on a boat or plane at Kuala Lumpur and go enjoy Singapore on foot and with public transport.
