I find it to be really disturbing that people with privilege to return are arrogant and disrespectful of Thai regulations. Sure, the efficacy of some regulations is debatable, but really that is not up to a guest to determine.These people are clearly taking their presence in the Kingdom for grated.
Yes I am stuck outside too. I have met many decent farang in Thailand but IMO it attracts ,[or perhaps the LOS "experience"itself produces] far too many Farang <deleted>**wits into "Do you know who I am? " wannabes

He clearly was seriously injured. Any number of different things going have been going on... And at this point, we have no idea of why the guy was so agitated.
I had a spill off a MC in Pattaya many years ago the "rescue" guys along with trying to steal my watch and a wallet were less than professional I got myself off the road before the "rescue" guys damaged me more.If he had a broken leg and they tried to manhandle him,beacause their "training " was/is non-existent I can understand him going nuts.BUT we need to know what actually took place.

Badge engineered Balaj .. But it makes sense to get a foothold in the massive Indian motorcycle market .. Since their rebirth Triumph have made bigger capacity hi end machines not easily affordable to the masses but the brand of Triumph is iconic so doing this allows access to the badge for those not loaded with the dollars for a big Triumph .. Don't expect it to go down well with the purists though ..
Original 1960's 200 Cub Triumph ..
This is what they should make it look like[Modernized of course].
The only thing Triumph about those Bajal thingds is the badge.

It's an embarrassment and should be nipped in the bud (former Speed Triple owner 1997-2001).
A small 200 250 would be good but not if it looked like this rubbish

You'll need to apply again for a new 60 days tourist visa if the 3 months validity expires. I don't think the Thai consulate will give you a freebie.
Yes I reckon you're right.It's not the fee it's the hassle .I live a few hours from the consul so I do it by mail.plus new Bank statements letter of invite etc.

It should be possible to apply for another non-b visa at the embassy. Not sure if they are processing them at this time.
The problem could be any document they could consider to be to old such as the invitation letter from your employer.
Hi Joe I was wondering about this for my SE Tourist Visa which also runs out in June[12th].I wont be able to use it and the answer I got when I enquired at the Brisbane consul was basically "Tough **** " I'm going to ask again nearer the expiry date but I expect I'll need to apply again submit all the info[which is the PITA part]and and PAY again {TIT even if it is the consul] Even if Thailand is allowing inbound passenger flights by then I doubt Australia will be allowing outbound.

I simply don't feel very safe at speeds faster than that..not even in my car, unless you really know a road very well and its in very good condition just seems too risky dogs,buffalo,children or grandma could just pop up at any moment.
I agree, especially in Thailand. I have touched 160 kph on my bike twice in Thailand 0n the 650 Vulcan but haul it down almost immediately to around 110-120 which is where I sit most of the time if conditions allow .It doesn't feel safe on Thai roads in my area at much over that .I used to have a 600 Steed that'd top out at about 135kph,but was happy to sit at 110 kph all day.In Australia I have touched a tad over 160kph a couple of times on my 1200cc Triumph and 160 twice on my 865cc The 1200cc does it with ease and a fair bit more to go but the road conditions are terrible where I am.Then there's the police.So again 110-120 is where I spend most of my cruise time
