Hi Franco,
We do not have any fixed dates yet, but are looking at entering Myanmar end of May, and entering China beginning of August.
China costs were $1950 USD for 2 people and 2 bikes for 5 days from KKH (Pakistan) to Torugart Pass (Kyrgyzstan), the per person costs presumably comes down with more people and bikes. This is a 5 day crossing, with 1 free day in Kashgar, otherwise it might be 4 days.
As far as I can tell you still need a guide to cross China. Some groups recently managed it without one, but then some more people ruined it by going off route etc, and now no tourist agency I talked to wants to take the risk. You need to arrange at least 3 months in advance with the tour company, and as far as I tell they take care of all the paperwork. 1 day of the crossing is taken up with arranging temporary drivers licenses and registration for the bikes.
