#11 Re: wanted shanghai plate .either is ok06-05-2012, 04:34 AM
euphonius, i was hoping i could find someone moving on n letting it go, just a punt. but after not being able to ride(or walk) for 5 years . i will do anything to get mounted again.
and about the cost n getting threatened for my plate. it just goes with the territory. paid a lot more for a lot less n been threatened for less before. 'shit append'...........
but as you said its no use to no one without the docs. I'm more worried about getting my ride stolen, or more so what would happen if i caught them in the act ..hahahaha
the truth is i live in central sh but can get n would go with a C licence, if i could be sure its just a fine and not fine and points for riding inner ring. and if i was parked they wouldn't impound my bike. if i could be sure of this then i will get a C. cos 8k ish for an C plus 20 x 200Y fine is still a lot less than 60k for an A....
i can even get an out of town plate for 200. but i found out i can't ride anywhere n if i do they impound it n send it back to the city its reg in. bugger.....
at the end of the day its about riding... so this is just a distraction.. a very expensive one, but when i looked in jan it was 52k last year 45k now 65k....to me thats a damn site more than u get in the bank.. i now its a risk as is everything. but you got to 'stand for something or you'll fall for anything'

cheers for the heads up, but i can get local and regional thru certain friends n family. locals get a lot of things done, but bitch just the same about the price of plates. a lot use out of town plates on the cars, but not many use bikes except the weekend harley types, like a a couple of friends who bike out to their yachts at the weekend, and i guess they don't need to worry about the cost .....

Just saw this thread, I completely missed it before.
Paul, we already started to "talk" by PM, and I will send you a new one in a few minutes : please know I'm indeed selling the bike + the Shanghai Hu A plates as soon as I'm back in town (we're right now in Qingdao, Shandong), which will be around June 15th.
As for everything to be perfectly clear and transparent, I think I'll ask a very reasonable price for the bike considering our perfect condition : RMB 15,000 (bought new at 23,500 RMB less than 1 year ago, and the bike will have around 16,000km on the clock when we're back in Shanghai.
Soberpete may even attest to the very good and smooth running of the bike, as we swapped no sooner than yesterday for a while !
I'll PM you now.
Cheers,
Edit : oh and before anyone ask : I'm selling the bike and the plates after the round-China trip just because we're leaving China on July 1st : I got a very good job offer back in France, and after 10 years in China, I think it is time for me to go home ! The round-China trip was kind of our "good-bye trip" to China.
Anyway as I promised before, I'll post a full ride report here with lots of pics ! And I'll continue to ride in France, of course !

hi
thanks to anyone who read,or helped with a dice and offers. but i bit the bullet and bought a plate. passed test and legal rider.
IF ANYONE WANTS HELP IN PASSING MULTI CHOICE TEST JUST ASK. I HAVE A FEW LISTS AND WEB PAGES AND FRIENDS WHO HELPED ME WHO ARE WILLING TO HELP OTHERS.SOME FREE SOME CHARGE, BUT THE ADVICE AND 'QUESTION PATTERNS' ETC I DEVISED ARE FREE.
i applied on 14/6 and was given 4/7 as earliest date, but after my friend heard she spoke to her and got me tests on the 14/6-15/6-18/6 each day,she also obtained all my paperwork for me.including the medical!!!! i took my test without looking at the questions and got 82%. i spoke to a guy who runs an english speaking driven agency,who happens to be the husband of one of the officers on duty,he doesn't really like western clients because they let him down and mess him about, but he agreed if i can send him some guys he can help train and pass anyone,but he is a business so a reduced rate but not free..sorry.....
other officers directed us outside to the shops to buy the 300 bank questions they use for 500y....DO NOT DO THIS it is a con, the national data base is random,comprised of all the questions.
anywho. after taking advice i refined my revision based on his webbsite,found all the patterns and all the rules he has listed and made some lists. this way i did not even have to read the questions just look for key words and answers and its easy.
i studied for 6 hours. 1 day, next day went back in 15mins passed 99%.
another guy went in before me,came out long after and told me he got 81% on his 4th attempt. i gave him my paperwork and details of the web.(sorry i only had a 1 week key.) he emailed me this week and told me his next test he got 96%. happy bunny
if i get time i will list the patters and the rules,but as i gave him my notes and i don't have access to the web it could be difficult,and long winded. but i can still help where possible.
good riding and stay rubber side down.

Congrats on the Regal Raptor purchase... I can't tell from the photo but is it a DD250 or 350cc?
I rode one round here that a local dealer had got in for a foreigner who'd paid a deposit but then backed out at the time when he was meant to collect it and pay the balance. I didn't know the guy personally but a mutual acquaintance invited me to come look at if it for him, as he had little to noot motorcycle experience. He actually wanted to buy it to then strip out the motor and tranny and use the rolling chassis as the basis for a e-bike. Go figure. Anyway he decided on a Regal Raptor 150 standard style bike. He had no license or anything and wasn't planning to license it. He ended up riding it, and some of his friends too without plate or insurance - just asking for trouble and worse makes it worse for the rest of us.
Well now I along with the rest of the MCM crew I'm sure wait for review...
