  1. So the price of a bike actually for sale is 6KB [$170] more than the same one that does not exist.? Go for the imaginary one.
  2. Dynabeads. Bought from Chiangmai Saddlebags but they are out of biz. Also Contact Balance Beads. Both avail ebay, but shipping is high.
  3. #2: Balance Beads, for tires. Perfectly balanced tires. Smoother ride at highway speeds. Faster and better fuel economy & tire life.
  4. Maybe some simple mod to your bike that was really good. #1 de papa: those mesh venting seat covers; super cheap & effective. Whats Urs?
  5. Ordered some new tires for the Lifan. My old tires are actually way oversized for the rims. Width: rim old tire size new tire size F 1.6” 90mm/3.55” 70mm / 2.75” R 1.85 4.3” 3” I think it will ride better. Will have iMoto mount w/ new tubes and balance-beads then, ready for Laos., later.
  6. no. Great plan; let's do that. & free beer.!!
  7. They make tire for most everything. http://veerubber.co.th/2016/catalog/?v=5b79c40fa7c2
  8. Just received a quote on the tires from VRC: //////////// The price include vat & delivery fee VRM-022 2.75-21 F TT = 560 baht 3.00-18 R TT = 640 baht But these tires size don’t have stock. so after you confirm by send copy of transfer , We start produce tires for you. It might take 2-3 weeks before I can sent tires to delivery service. Thank you Nui Vee Rubber Corporation Ltd. //////////////////// Seems really cheap.
  9. 1. IRC GP-1 is clone of VRM-022 / vid. GP-5...different, less dirty. 2. Will have my executive assistant check.
  10. Maybe: OEM tires are bias-ply tube type with the following specs for reference:Front: IRC GP-5 D, 80/90-17M/C 44PRear: IRC GP-5, 80/90-17M/C 50P
  11. The Mighty Lifan. 200cc D/S Bought new ~7-y/a. 21/18 rims. Up-graded tires. Now, , 18Kkm., tread is okay but checked, need to be replaced. Going w/ VeeRubber VRM-022. Found this review:
  12. For moto tires, forget Mityon, forget mom & pop; iMoto all day. [well, ... 10a-6p]
  13. iMoto can do an inside hot patch. Mo bedda.
  14. mmmmm... hungry now.
  15. So when these boots were purchased, papa somehow spaced-out and ordered 2 pairs. Now, 3/2-years later, the boots are well worn, and the soles are delaminating. Took to boot repair shop Bukauw area for Monday pick-up. Have new spare pair in box yet.
  16. You were on the flight.? Or just a smarty pants.?
  17. Haven't for a couple of years. Covid. Plan to next week. Will take KTM Duke200. Never really rode tripped w/ her, except Koh Chang. Plan to leave Daisy Duke @ a bike shop, in CM after 2 or 3-week ride. 800baht/month. Will fly back BKK w/ return CNX about end of August. ????
