  1. YSS make shocks for many types of bikes , not just little bikes they supply shocks for Ducati, Triumph and Harley and all big Jap bikes , they are very good quality rebuildable after market shocks .. The bolt for mounting the shock is sheared off , looks that it was not tight enough and came loose and then flexed causing the bend in the shock collar and then the bolt snapped .. , some Harley bolts are known to shear if too much torque applied .. So the shock is not the problem its probably down to incorrect mounting ....
  2. Until Putin dies there is zero chance of any peace in Ukraine or an end to the proxy attacks all over Europe ,, we need to give Ukraine better longer range weapons so they can shower the kremlin with explosions
  3. Ancient Greek Democracies had this rule 2300 Years ago for elected officials ,, and it was taken by a full vote of the cities registered Voters ,, minimum punishments for corruption or incompetence was a massive fine often all money and posessions , removal of office and voting rights which was harsh as it made you less than a man , to exile for you and your family which was almost as bad as death as you were no longer citizen but an outcast and unlikely to find refuge in another city , to a choice of slavery or death , by poison, sword, fire or strangulation ... Even republican Rome had methods to punish corrupt or incompetent officials .. Modern Democracies often reward incompetence etc in Uk they are made Lords ,, In EU they are made commissioners ,In Thailand or USA its a revolving door for the elites ,, Etc etc ,,,no real punishments for failure ..
  4. Giant Python total Hype a big python is one over 5m length and a giant is one over 7m length that is a tiddler ,,,
  5. Be aware they have recently raised the fines from 500baht to 2000baht
  6. The executioner would have to work 24/7/365 to even make a small dent in the corrupt officials numbers ,,,,,,,,,
  7. Must be a very HISO mall as they are too embarassed to name it ,, SIAM, WTC, MBK, Terminal 21, Emporium , Central ???? many more ... probably all of them LOL
  8. Keep a large python or a croc nearby ,, end of dog problem ,,, feed the farang to his obnoxious Pit bull then feed the Pitbull to the croc or get some koreans round for dinner.
  9. Dont touch crypto its a scam , and most crypto exchanges are full of ripoffs, just transfer the money by normal bank transfer to your Thai bank account ,
  10. Life is a lesson in Futility,,, Life is futile,, All existence is ultimately futile,, everything will end ,, all things will cease to exist ,, History,Life, Universe, even time .
  11. Tourist arrivals to USA down 12% in last 2 months already as countries warn people about ICE Thugs ,,,, and forward tourist bookings for 2025 dow 37% its on a lot of financial media ,,,, Airlines , Hotels, Car rentals , restaurants and Attractions etc in USA very worried ,,,another Trump success story
  12. I went to renew my Thai license in pattaya in November ,, done it before 6 times over last 24 years , so thought it would be a breeze.... er NO ..total nightmare ,, got run around, refused , bribe demanded ,, get another, medical,, blah blah got another medical,, then immigration letter now out of time,,,, blah blah ,,,gave up and using my EU licence ....
  13. 50% of the Thai Military budget is diverted in Generals, Air marshals , politicians and Admirals pockets ,, the other 50% is wasted
  14. 5 tones and up to 11 Classifiers makes it very confusing I can converse in Thai but its not at all easy ,, women are easy to talk with but Thai men often deliberately dont want to understand ,, even my thai wife has noticed this when I talk with local in Thai ,, she says the men are lazy and ignorant..Sure my accent is not so great .. Then there are all the different dialects ....and the killer is that many Thais have nothing interesting to speak about anyway even the so called intellectuals .
