I am an American living in Bishkek and I have desperately been looking for a bike here. I am looking at some used bikes but most are undependable (the Russian bikes may be easy to fix but still a difficult thing unless you are fluent in Russian) or small. I plan on two up riding and I am looking into the shipment of a KLR. The roads here are not that good at all. They are bad in Bishkek and worse out of town. When there are no pot holes there is a lot of debris and still not street bike friendly. The international licensee should be fine and the other paper work once in country is not a problem (as long as you have help with the language).
They also have classified here where you can find a few bikes. Most are about 2k more US than to what they go for back home. I am going to look at a 89 Yamaha 1000 sport tourer this week end that is going for 2500.
Another thing is, make sure you bring all your riding gear with you.
Hope this helps. Send me a PM and I’ll give you my email and cell.
