    Bikes over 13 years old must be scraped?!?!?!
    Wow too bad, big loss of heritage.

    Do you have a new bike that you can register and ride?

      Self-assembly, imported old cars, can not be legally registered.
      Licenses that can be registered in the city cost $50,000, but those outside the city do not need to be new.
      I mean Beijing, one of the most expensive cities in China, like New York.

        Welcome Freeman. Glad you're able to have a bike and enjoy it, even if you can't register it. When I was in Shenzhen about 12 years ago I was struck by how many scooters there were on the road and how fearlessly they all drove. Cars and bikes were constantly weaving and crowding each other all over the place. I was surprised I didn't see a single accident . It took me a few days to realize that's just how people drive and they know how to make it work. I'd be scared to death to ride my bike there!

          Lol.Yes, it was an absolutely terrifying experience, and so was Beijing. Riding my FL in this environment is definitely a challenge.

                    Translation software is sometimes available.The translation software sometimes expresses inaccurately. Sorry.

                      You are doing very well, most Americans don't understand English either! So, what do you do since you can't register the bike, ride illegally or just not ride on the streets?

                        Lol.Chinese people are also, I will ride a few times a month, try to avoid the police, to their own familiar roads, so far have not encountered the police.The old bike can ride on the road to make her more attractive, I will insist on keeping her on the road, rather than locking her up to enjoy.
