In the olden days papa rode a Nouvo from Chiangmai to Buriram. [could have taken the bus I guess] Pretty fun.! Brakes and suspension held up fine. Small fuel tank was a negative.

Lost Bike Keys, How can I get the bike started again?

Call a locksmith. -
4 banger. Expensive. Not a RE thing. So believe it. Can't really ride a 4x anywhere near to the performance designed. Except the track. Which would be real fun. Honda makes a 4x/650. ? CBR See them at track days.

CT125 and Vespa Sprint 150, Southern Thailand Tour.
papa al replied to chrissables's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
Amen. Chrissables’ S. Thaland tour. ==> papa was able to join C on his tour after Mike's scooter breakdown, as described above. Mar 5 met M in Patty followed him to Hui Hin. Mike prefers riding aggressively thru city traffic. Ran 5 red-lights within 1st 5 miles. 5 5. Keeping up was challenging. We made it though, unscathed, and met up w/ C the next day. Ban Groot. A couple days later Mikes’s route diverged, and following C was the thing. C is an excellent route planner, and as an eye for fotos, for sure. Was surprised by the amount of winding mountain roads existing down there. Enjoyable as the more famous routes up N. Chris hauls on his 125. papa 75 now, so thankful to get some quality rides in while able. 5200km. over 28 days. on the 2019 CB150R. So, thx for the memories, &c. p a. [papa hugged a ladyboy] -
