Jialing gets a well deserved oil and filter change at the Sanya downtown authorised Jialing service centre (see post #5 in this thread). Oilfilter shows three little metal flecks, nothing to worrie about.
Before someone asks, my replacement battery arrived by truck from Shanghai a couple of days ago (Jialing LZD and Xiao Fan shipped the battery) but keeping the smaller one installed as of today have not encountered any problems so far…..

Sanya Bay has a heli tour operation now, 1600RMB for 10 min. for a single person (seats 4 incl. pilot), they have two helicopters stationed there. watched the black one taking off and had to laugh as the pilot put on his white gloves like the taxi drivers we have in the cities like Shanghai / Beijing....

side-note: I have the business card of the Sanya Bay heli tour operation in case anyone needs the contact details.

ps: one of my Sanya contacts mention the other day rental Ferrari / Lamborghini supercars are available for 20000-25000 RMB per day (self-driven) in Sanya as well. Shall double check and report back once I have more details available….

Roadside shrines for good luck and herewith temporarily stopping the Sanya - Hainan ride report as my Jialing JH600 ADV cruiser has been washed & cleaned, Ctek battery charger plugged in and bike is securely stored as I am on my way back up to Shanghai right now, unfortunately by plane.
4+ weeks road trip (6000+k's) went by in a flash but the next bike rides are currently in the final planning stages.
