You might be able to ride around but I doubt it having no plates would be a dead give away lets say you have an accident and it isn't your fault even. They(police) will make you pay all the expenses of the other party then they will pull your visa and deport you.Up here they will.

Not having plates will not be an issue in China - an average of 2-3% of vehicles (including police vehicles are unplated) at any point of time and the police just ignore it.
I rode around for a month unplated, uninsured and unlicenced. As for what happens in case of an accident, IMHO it all comes down to bribery and corruption regardless of what your insured status is. So what if you are deported after the acident, you won't exactlty be wanting to hang around anyway, will you?
Your biggest challenge will be smuggling the bikes in - I thought about but decided it was cheaper and easier to buy a bike once in China. Let me know how you go.
