Hi, I will be arriving in Chengdu in less than two weeks. Are you able to drive that without a license there?
As far as i know, you do not have to have a drive license for driving a motorbike at Chengdu. However, i’m not suggest a foreigner driving at Chengdu, because this is a new city to you , and there are tons of cars and motorbikes that you will be so mess up and confused. By the way, there are many taxis around every corner of this city and its very cheep.
Good luck! (Zhu ni hao yun!)

No, you need a Chinese motorcycle license. If you’re looking for information on that, check this site: cyclechina.info. Motorcycles are also restricted inside the city itself (as in many major cities in China).
In my opinion it’s best to get around the city with a bicycle (or e-bike) and have a motorcycle for trips outside of the city to surrounding areas. But even for that, you will need a motorcycle license. If you are involved in an accident and are not licensed or insured, you could get into deep, deep trouble. There is a UK citizen in Chengdu who recently got into such a situation and he is in the middle of a catastrophic situation. It is due to his own negligence and belief that the rules do not apply to him.
OH yikes. I hadn’t heard that story yet, Charlie. Can you share more (not names or anything, but more of what happened)?
