Motorbikes now allowed in Jordan...
 

I have talked to the Jordan Consulate in Vienne and they did some research.

The outcome was that foreigners are now allowed to enter and ride their motorbikes in Jordan.

As for the locals they weren't sure. When I asked what the reason behind this is they replied that is was the sole right of their Majesty the King to ride a motorbike in his country.

Well, at least their was a reason behind a rule. Something becoming rarer every day ;-)

Does anyone any information that would confirm that bikes are allowed in Jordan now?

This comes up from time to time and so far it hasn't been true.

Many thanks!!!

They have a info paper on how to enter Jordan with a motorbike - in Arabic ;-)

I've sent them an email. I will post their reply here.

i live in Israel . Jordan on motorbike will be a dream....
as i know they only allow groups- and yes you need a special approval from the king...
as i know private riders cannot get in....
please update if you here differently.

Scince when? I crosses Jordan with my bike two years ago no problem:
