What are the funny things attached to the handle bar grips?

Kaizoku, If your looking to find a good price stop trolling the 'falang' websites and look at the Thai classified ads. I just found pages of them going from 20,000 up to 70,000.

Anyone knows where can I get a carpet python? Was thinking of a jaguar phase.
JJ Market. Expect to pay around 25,000 for a nice phase.

We live quite close by and its still flooded where my house is. My kitchen was a couple of cm deep, garden and driveway about 10 cm deep. Luckily there is a step up to my living room, dining room and garage but it was very close to coming in.
Looking at the drains over the past few days the water level has been only 1 or 2 cm below the road level

Hi Vocalneal,
Not sure where in BKK you are but there is a pet store on ramkamheang, just after the honda training ground and I'm pretty sure they had them in there a month or so ago when I popped in to pick up some treats. They are treated with something like you say to encourage the pup to urinate.
They looked like this -

Interesting colour scheme too in the background!

Ebay.with the right stock not copy items from thailand.
Thanks for the suggestion Boyce, and Ebay can certainly be a good tool but he is looking to spend the time he has studying / learning something new where he can maybe venture into the 'freelance' job sector in the future.

Was wondering if anyone could help me out with a bit of advice.
My good friend from back home would like to come over to Thailand to live, His current job role (offshore) will expire in 1 to 2 years time.
He has a lot of time on hand to learn a new 'trade' but I'm clueless as to what to suggest.
I was thinking some kind of website design but there seems to be millions out there already.
If you had a year or 2 to learn something new that would provide a ok-ish income online what would it be?
Many thanks for any ideas.

Not my ad, but spotted in the classifieds and wanted to add here for exposure.

Why don't you save your self the headache and just buy new? Your not looking at that much more money.

I think that it might be the API ECU that kawa sell, about 8000 baht if I remember correctly. It seems as if the ECU has de-restricted the bike so it can rev out in all gears now. Sounds a lot like the wire cut or clutch mod. I'm trying to see if its worth spending the 8000 for the ECU as well as the free de-restriction. Had you de-restricted prior to the ECU?
I'm looking to big bore, but to a 300 as I can use genuine kawa parts from the old klx 300. If I do this I will post details here. If I go ahead with that I will also be adding a Juicebox or power commander to modify the fuel map.
Cheers
Hi Martin.
I'm getting the good lady to check with Kawasaki Big Bike shop in Udon Thani, where I bought the bike for the ECU details. They are a good shop and pay attention to detail and are diligent and knowledgeable.
ECU was changed after the 1000km run in period, so a full analysis of the difference, I can’t give. I did notice however that I have power throughout the rev range, which was all lower down prior to the change, very little above 7,500rpm, enhancing overall performance and flexibility tremendously. According to figures I’ve seen from others, my indicated (GPS shows lower) top speed is a little over 130kmh, so no gains there.
With the exhaust, I had to put the power tip back in after 2 weeks as it sounded fantastic but was far too noisy and drove me mad. I have a nice exhaust note and with the twin flow air filter the system can breathe fine, with tolerable (and Police friendly)decibel levels now. I’ve not removed the snorkel as I collect enough dust as it is in the filter. I do ride the bike hard, I don’t much care for economic riding, but with 130 km range, the power is up on standard and running richer possibly, but by how much I’ll never know. Starting hot or cold takes a few turns and I also get the exhaust pop on deceleration, part of the bikes charm!
I’ll keep looking at this forum as am always looking for improvements, but I won’t be boring out pistons to 350cc or such modifications.

Yes as long as properly secured and in the correct container. I often carry extra fuel when riding off road.

Do you have a blog where you are keeping track of your trip with photos etc?
Would be interesting to follow as I'm sure a lot of us guys would love to do the same one day.
Cheers and well done

Hi Gents.
I came across this topic and thought some of you may be interested in the mods I've made to my 2011 KLX 250.
Changes include:

Hi Windygale,
A nice setup you have there!
May I ask which ECU you swapped to and how much of a difference it made?
Thanks

Its a hard decision to make. Good luck.
No your normal methinks, A scooter for the markets, a off road bike for fun, a sports bike for the long trips and a car for when it rains

If you can't speak Thai maybe it's best to get a Thai friend to call for you. I rarely get replies from emails I send on that site. I just get my partner to call them for me. Much easier.
That site is defiantly the best place to search online if you want a good price.
Good luck with finding one
