  1. Well, get me them skirts Brian and I will happily display www.sumetcycle stickers along the sides of the skirts.

    So does that now mean it is 20kmph + 30 kmph?

    Freeekin awesome. wink.png

    I picked up the skirts earlier today. You can come in tomorrow if you would like. Yes, I guarantee an extra 50kph.

  2. Have been promising the wife a new Motorbike

    She wants a new red Spacy I

    Looks like the 12" wheels and tubless tires on the the new Scoopy would fit right on. What would be the out the door cost of the Spacy with the added wheels, and tubless Tires ?

    Don't need a Helmet or jacket or any of the Honda give aways. just bike, plate, book, and the required basic insurance

    The Spacy itself is 42,000 (includes book, plate, and basic 3rd person insurance). Just let me confirm the price of the 12' Scoopy wheels with tubeless tires and if they will work on the Spacy. Thanks.

  4. How is it in the city sumet?

    Do you ride it often on the city roads?

    Thanks.

    It took some getting used to moving up from a 250, but now I get through the traffic just as easily as I did on the 250. I thought the mirrors were fixed at first, but they actually fold in. Splitting lanes is now no problem in city traffic. It does get a lot hotter than the 250 though. I'd say my riding has been 50/50 city riding/touring.

  5. The Fireblade really isn't made for two, but if you ride with a pillion from time to time this seat makes a world of difference. It keeps the passenger from sliding back and fourth during acceleration and braking.

    I also picked up a K&N filter and ordered an Akrapovic exhaust from Hong Kong last week. I'm waiting to get a new ecu before I install them though.

  6. Hey Brian, when do you think we'l be able to find out what the locally made big bikes will be. Will you be selling them? Cheers

    There should be info out by the end of the year. I've been told there will be three locally made models, with the possibility of the existing dealer network selling one of them. Thanks.

  7. Hi Marstons,

    The tyres are IRC Wings. Brian from SumetCycle (sponsor) sorted them for me. Personally, I think they are great. Good in the wet and a good compound. Mine are fitted onto 13" mags but they are available for 14's too. Mine are wider than standard but I prefer more rubber on the ground.

    YSS shocks are a definite improvement. Probably the best upgrade you can make. Be aware though that they come in different configurations. XL ....XXL etc. This relates to weight carried. 90kg, 110 kg etc.

    I have attached a link which shows you. I have the G Euro's which cost around 3,700 baht. You can go much higher than that though, depends what you want to do with your bike.

    Contact Brian at SumetCycle for more info. His wife Pam, is also around and is pretty knowledgeable.

    Hi thanks i PM Brian yesterday but see he is in Hong Kong for a few days,i will order the wings off him and get them shipped to Pattaya.

    Will give the shocks ago, looking on the site they are cheaper it appears than Mai Thai but will see if he will price match the store in BKK.

    Thanks for the info, great looking bike.

    I sent a PM this morning with the tire info, Marstons. I also have the YSS shocks you mentioned for 3,600 baht. Thanks.

  8. I Have the IRC wings on my 150 and wondering other than looks what are the advantages of running the 13 in wheels as opposed to the 14s which I have.

    The smaller wheels will allow for quicker turns, but you might feel the bumps a bit more. Mainly people do it for aesthetic reasons though.

  9. I've toured with the new Integra which has the same engine as the NC700. I would argue that it is great for both the city and long distance touring. It is very comfortable for both the rider and pillion. I was on a Fireblade and another guy was on a Goldwing. The Integra had no problem keeping up and handled beautifully in the turns. The dual clutch system and lack of engine braking do take some getting, but I think it is great to be able to switch from auto to manual with the flick of a switch. There aren't many new riders entering the market nowadays. Honda wanted to make an easy to ride vehicle that would appeal these riders. When I did my last Bigwing rider training 80% of the bikes were NC700s with a lot of new riders, so I guess Honda's plan is working.

  10. DBS makes some really nice full system exhausts for the CBR 150. The sound is really nice and they claim a 15% hp increase. I've had a couple of customers put them on their bikes and they are very happy with them. If you are interested, send me a PM. Best of luck.

  11. Thanks Brian. I can be up by 10.00 am tomorrow if that's ok. I will definitely be traveling Sunday.

    Sent from my GT-I9300 using Thaivisa Connect App

    I've got the exhaust and air intake in stock. If I can't get the air intake pics up, you can have a look and decide tomorrow. I guess that just leaves the side panels. They are still at the paint shop, but I'll see if I can have them here for tomorrow. Thanks again.
