Perth (Aus) to London

Hi all, planning the ride form Perth via Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, Italy, France, England.
Looks something like the list below. Apologies for all the double ups, pulled it off a spreadsheet tracking distances etc.

Main concern is border crossings, we are two bikes (Africa Twins) and light gear. There is plenty of stories of scooters, locally plated bikes etc crossing SE Asia borders, tales of bigger bikes being banned, no foreign plated bikes in China etc etc. Any help re the facts warmly welcomed, if you have tips on a single crossing or link to a post ive missed or you've done the whole thing, love to hear from you. Were happy with getting to Bangkok, from there the mystery starts.

Thanks in advance, looks like a great forum, will keep searching threads in the meantime Cheers, Craig.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
