Here is my travel scenario:

1. On January 24/08 I expect to land in Moscow with a tourist visa valid for 30 days. I will stay overnight in Moscow, then take train #10 (Baikal) to Irkutsk.

2. When I arrive in Irkutsk I will stay for 2 nights and then catch the Russoya (Train #2) to Vladivostok.

3. I will stay in Vladivostok for a day or 2 then take the bus for the Chinese border, cross it and take the train to Harbin. Yes, I will have a Chinese visa too.

So, although I will be in Russia for about 12 days, do I need to register my tourist visa? If so, where do you suggest I register it?

Most of my stops will be at pre-arranged homestays.
Thanks for advice.

well technically you don't have to but most will tell you to register it in Moscow to prevent any problems on exiting Russia

With that itinerary you won't have to register anywhere.
Keep all of your tickets though as proof of your movements.
The authorities will want to see them if you don't have registration.
