Buying a bike in Pokhara, Nepal
Hi All,
I'm now buying my first bike in Pokhara, and hope you can help me out with here deciding what to buy  My considerations: - My trip plan: Nepal-India-China-Mongolia-*Stans-Turkey. I'd like my bike to have replacement parts available in this route. - Budget: up to 3000$ - I'm a new rider so I'm looking for an easy-to-maintain bike. - I have only a car driving license from my country (Israel) - hope that won't be a problem anywhere. I know how to ride a bike though.. - I heard it's easier to travel with an Nepali-registered bike than an Indian one - can anybody confirm/deny? - I'd like the bike to carry 2 persons and 2 backpacks without fainting. My options for bike now: 1. A custom-made with Yamaha 125cc engine, made by a British guy who lives here in Pokhara - about 2000$. Very light - about 90kg. 2. Royal Enfield - there are some models here for sale. The most attractive one is a 700$ Electra Enfield, but there are cheaper ones at about 500$. 3. 125-135cc Indian Yamaha - there are many such bikes for sale here. A local mechanic recommended to buy an RX-135cc . 4. Abandon and go to India to buy my bike - least preferred.. Thanks!

want the same
Shalom Aviad,
I was just wondering if you managed to get a good bike in Pokhara for your trip? As I'm planing to do the same: buying a bike in Nepal and riding in to Germany. Please let me know if you succeeded. Thanks. Phil Phil Dera Photography
