You cant ride directly to thailand due to not being able to take a foreign reg bike through Burma or China you would have to ship from the likes of India, l also belive thailand its self has resistrions on foreign bikes entering.

Its quite difficult to get a visa for Iran which you would will have to pass through also Iran along with India and pakistan require a carnet de passage which are expensive.


Time scale would be 3-4 months, costs around 8-10k


Best place for info and to ask question is here:

I thought my contribution not only was constructive but also something interesting to read if anybody was at a loose end. Maybe you are at a loose end and playing ping-pong with me. I am still jetlagged and not in the mood for ping-pong.
