If your European or USA license has a motorcycle endorsement makes it easy for a UAE motorcycle license.
When you get the license translated into arabic, have this translated also.
It will be automatically added into the UAE license at the same cost 220 AED
I paid 40 AED for the translation and then 220 for the license.
Probably easier than trying to add it later.

not any longer, you have to prove it by driving. It's the >every month I change the rules< rule, to keep expats busy.
Thats why I drive H3...
Good place in DXB is the citycenter first floor around the corner where the taxi pickup is.
take care

RC30...niiiice. Would never expect to see one here. Always wanted one, but never in the right place. Brother just bought a never-raced OW01 (he's a Yamaha guy). Will be on the lokout for you..

Pilots Biking Club
Has anybody contemplated organising a Pilots Motorbiking Club for all pilot bikers in the UAE? Apart from going on organised rides with like minded people it could lead to discounts on bike rental or parts overseas. Maybe tie up with the EPC?
Whilst I don't mind riding with some of the organised clubs in Dubai, I often find that the apres ride scene is not that stimulating. I ride a pretty conventional Harley, nothing fancy and do enjoy riding in a group.
I can also understand and fully support the need to occasionally get out of the aviation community and mix with other professions, this is necessary and of course healthy, I would just like to get more fun out of the riding experience.

Hey gorman, you shouldn't show everybody what a f***in' idiot you are.If you had half a brain, you would tell him to keep his Harley and BUY A RICE ROCKET TOO !!

>> Yes its an RC30, probably the only one in Dubai and possibly one of the few used as an every day ride. Most are stored or treated like museum pieces but they weren`t built to stand still. There`s no point having a 30 and not riding it.
Not many visual cues to tell the NC from the RC at a distance. The RC had hand finished Dzus fasteners. Small 750R tail decal. Basso profundo drone with a race pipe, the NC has a lovely howl at a higher frequency. Anorak moment: all the RC30s were built at HRC by the race techs which meant the Flying H sold them at a considerable loss. 45s and the mass market NC were built on the regular Honda lines. Your bike might put a grandson through a good college, don't drop it!

I had 3 bikes before I came out here but as I couldn`t bring them all with me I sold an NC30 which I had owned for 11 years and left another bike in my folks garage.
Farnworth, you`re right, I wouldn`t like to see the bill for parts if I dropped it but I get more pleasure riding it than looking at it. Very few people here have any idea what it is though I did meet one guy who wanted to swap his Aston for a day out on it.
Trimotor , if you see me out and about be sure to give me a shout!
I was at the Gulf Bike Expo this weekend and among some pretty amazing bikes there were a couple of Confederates. Now although cruisers are not really my thing I have to say the carbon and engineering that goes into making one of those is pretty impressive. Anybody ridden one?
