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.

Mate you have your head up your ___- if your recommending driving around China with no plates so 97/98 % do have plates.The police up here are certainly not ignoring it .Every time I have been up the toll road every second toll station has had the police stopped there checking cars and bikes.
Also your now recommending bribing the cops there is a smart move in China offer a bribe to the wrong one and you will know it.
So you traveled through China for one month unregistered, uninsured and unlicenced and willing to offer bribes.
Its idiots like you who stuff it up for people trying to do the right thing stay home in Australia and ride around unregistered,uninsured and unlicensed you can offer bribes to the cops there. There is probably some cops there who may take your bribe probably alot who won't just like here.
