This is the Hairpin Highway in Tienmen China. 

 What a ride this would be! Can you say white knuckles

Very slowly, so I could take in the sights without running off the road.

Looks like lots of fun to me. I don't think I would go all the way to China for such a road since I used to drive on many similar roads in the mountains of Southern California.

 Yep. I hope to come down this summer and ride Mullholland Highway and stop by The Rock Store. Going to try during the week though. Looks like too many people on the weekends.

Isn't the Mokee Dugway an all dirt road? I think I would want a Dual Sport for that one.

We got some 'crazy roads' like that in BC - that are paved! You just can't take a picture like that 'cuz our trees are so big.

And I get to ride them any time it ain't raining or snowing ('bout twice a year) .

Looking at pictures and descriptions posted on the internet, it looks like a well maintained two lane wide gravel road, (not dirt) with 10% grades. Dual sport would probably be preferred, but should be no problem for a Vision either. It's now on my list.
