martync,
India is very easy, you can go to Manali & get a decent used Enfield for $500 to 1000 and sell it when you're done. If you are doing Manali to Leh you can now rent one way. In the Summer the Monsoon is coming. Nepal & Kumaoan Gharwahl it arrives early to mid Jun, in Shimla Mid to late Jun, same for Manali. Spiti, of Manali to Leh, Leh to Srinighar, Kargil to Padum (the worlds most scenic ride) are good all summer.
The plains are scary drivers if you're not used to it, for me the slower speeds & horrible roads of the mountains are much less nerve racking.
