Hi to all. I am a great fan of motorbikes. Next month Ill be on my vacation, so I am planning to take a trip to Middle East. Of course, that has to be on bike. I am wondering if it is possible. Im planning to ride through Syria, Israel, Oman etc. I am curious about roads, borders and such things. All info is more than welcome.

Hello. I must admit that it is quite courageous undertaking. First youll have to get all visas, for countries you plan to drive through. Then it is necessary to collect all papers for your motorbike. Than youll have to pay fees for insurance, and some more fees on border. I see that you plan to ride through Israel. You must know that will ruin any chance to get in Saudi Arabia, Iran and Syria, because of political reasons. For some countries youll be needed transit visa also, which is hard to get sometime. I hope this information helped you. I wish you good ride. Cheers.
