Thanks all for the warm welcome, I'll reply to some of your comments!
Yeah, the roads around here are great, but (like everywhere in China?) there's plenty of stuff to keep you on your toes: Pot-holes, random piles of stuff, 3-wheel trucks on the wrong side of the road; etc. Will definately have to be careful.
Let me know when you're passing through. If I have free time and have the bike all sorted, maybe we can say "hi." as for the beer; sounds good! ;)
Nothing like some off-camera flash to bring the photographers out of the woodwork.
Lifted from the photos description on my flickr page:
=======
Strobist Setup:
One Nikon SB-600 camera left (low). 1/1 power. Bare.
One Yongnuo Speedlite YN460 camera right (high). 1/1 power. Bare.
eBay triggers and slaves.
Canon EOS 5D Mark II
1/200 sec at f/11, ISO 100
Canon 24-105mm F/4L IS USm at 24mm.

Oh, and I just sent you a flickr contact request. :)
I'm not looking forward to the shenanigans of getting a license. This city is so small, doing something like this usually results in a bunch of blank-looking faces from over-paid desk jockeys and things like "I don't know. A foreigner has never done this before. I don't think you can do it." blah blah blah.
So, wish me luck! However, with it being such a small place, I hope that *increases* my risk of just being able to give someone a few hundred RMB and be given a license with no test. :D

Well, I just mean the 'iron rice bowl' workers. Admittedly; they don't get mega-bucks, but most seem to work 3-4hrs a day and it's a job for life and a 'pension' there-after; so they know they can't be fired! I think I shall just go to all the relevant offices wearing my helmet; so I can safely bash my head against the wall :)
Oh; while I'm here - and saves from creating a new thread - does anybody know where I can find a PDF service manual for my bike? A Honda CBF-125. Or; failing that just some general bike-related documents. Give me a 4-wheel honda, a 10mm and a 12mm socket and I can take the thing apart and put it back together. The bike if anything looks like simpler engineering; I just don't wanna make any rookie mistakes. (IE: Un-bolt an engine-mount bolt thinking it's the oil drain plug. Derp derp.)

I have it shown on my dedicated rapidshare search engine, comes up as on Usenet and a couple of others which have a small fee. I haven't used them so cannot say how good but usenet has good rep.
I have a Honda 200cc manual if you send me your email address (it is just under 10 megs I think) as at present I cannot get a successful upload of it as a file to the forum.
When CC comes back from limbo he may tell me how to do that so all can get it! I use the 'attachment' method to upload files here but it uploads all of it then says error. Getting some weird things going on, posts missing, searches not working etc. I have reported all this to CC again, waiitng for reply.
I suggest you also start your own thread for this manual as you are hidden inside another thread and that means it doesn't show in the title so people may not look and see your query.Kinlon R/T KBR JL200GY-2

Why not buy a "D" when it can be done easilyLast edited by humanbeing; 03-18-2011 at 09:47 AM.
