indian roads to myanmar - how many km per day possible?
 
i am going to get to myanmar late jan. 2016. i am going to enter india from pakistan side, stay there for a while (goa) untill middle jan. and then have to get to the border india-myanmar as quick as possible. i checked a road thru google maps, garmin - 3300-3500km (this is thru central india), and i heard some people saying "you better go to the east india as short as possible and then ride along the sea shore of the begal gulf to kolkatta because the road is better (3700km)" and i really do not know which road to use and, more important, how long does it take to make this distance on indian roads? some say 200-250km/day is the maximum you can get in average on motorcycle on the indian roads because of traffic and road conditions..
appreciate any comment and many thanks in advance!

Look for the quadrilateral highway. It connects almost all cities and is circular. Plan on 400 km per day if in a group and 300 if alone. Keep all papers handy. Goodluck

I´d say that should be in the ballpark. I once did 400 kms, but afterwards felt like I´d just taken 12 rounds with a heavyweight-champion!

I rode from Pakistani border to Dharamsala, Delhi, Agra, Mumbai, Goa, Kerala then some hill stations and finally Chennai, almost 6000 kms in India. Do note, that this was almost 8 years ago, though, so many things might´ve changed...
