I'm a member of several Facebook bike groups, both here in Pattaya and in other countries......
Why is it that so many "blokes" get a new bike and bung on a "loud" exhaust and a tail tidy - and then grin and bear it for the sake of vanity, when the bike runs lean / pops like mad and water gets sprayed up their back when it rains ?
maybe they think people who look at them when they ride past are thinking "i wish i was him" .....
