A couple of questions more:
Top speed? 160 km/h? I seen a couple of Youtube vids of CBR 300's doing over 175 and with big Western rider onboard.
Max comfortable crusing speed without too high revs? 100-120 (I hope).
I still haven't seen one for real sadly and now I am stuck overseas for 2 month working.
It is posilbe to raise the seat an inch or so, they write in the tests that it's low and I got long legs.
120 kmh is just over 7,000 rpm. Personally I would prefer a lower rpm at that speed but it is only a 300 so it is to be expected. If you are going to do a lot of long distance riding a bigger bike would be better but that is only my opinion. On the other hand chances of cruising at 120 for any distance is unlikely due to traffic.

I think it a i just a parts manual with part names and reference numbers for parts. I kinda shows you how parts are taken apart but there is no real instructions on how to fix a problem.
Don't know about English but the local dealer has a full service manual for one.Does anyone in here sit on a owners manual in English or know where to download one?

Yep. How much can you do with one yourself these days? Remember opening a car bonnet a few years back, very tidy, tinker around? No.

Back in the day used to enjoy messing around with 2 strokes. Points, timing, etc. These days it is all ecu and injection. Hard to maintain yourself.

I got mine for 4 weeks ago, but have not seen it yet. 2 weeks now and its my turn. Nice to see yours so I know what mine looks like J Use the time to get advice from this forum so I know more about the bike when I come to Thailand. Redline a bike I guess is to get RPM to the red line??
(Out of tropic – I can’t see to find a way to post picture on this forum)
Will it be there when you arrive,

Redline it?A Thai guy was riding it with aftermarket black/gold levers. looking nice.
for break in, just vary the revs, dont stay at a certain rpm long time, try not to lug the engine too many times during first 1000 km - not saying never lug - , accel and decel, redline it and change the oil and oil filter at 100 km and at 1000 km one more time, switch to full synthetic at 6000 km.
good luck and happy rides!
yes, not saying you need to run close to redline all the time but redlining it at times.
Interesting. If you are going to redline a new engine now and again why bother with the rest of your advice? These days engines are pretty good, no real need to bed one in. Be gentle (If you can) till first service. Oil change at 100 km? No harm but why bother? Synthetic oil? Each to their own. Looked at the price of oils once when having an oil change on my car. If you want to pay there is some very expensive stuff around.
just an advice alan! they are not a must. That is what i believe. one might choose to go with the manufacturer's recommendation in the manual as well.
if engines are that pretty good, no need to wait and ride gentle like my grandmom for 1000 kms anyway too, right?
i bother oil change at 100 km and switch to full synthetic oil later on bc i like extra care for my bikes and bikes run better with full synthetic.
No problem. What bike does grandmother ride? I was astounded when I learnt my grandmother used to ride a BSA in her youth (1920).

It's called Suki. Not bad for vegetarians and defintely better than the street foodMk is just "wet food". I hate it. Wife loves it, so sometimes I must eat it. Yuk
Vegetarians? Thought their main selling point was the duck?

Thais like doing things in big groups and this place is perfect for that not to mention the girls get to play mamma organizing and serving the food, so cute when they do that. This is what men want!! and other things..
Bit old for the girls there. Agree one or two cuties, unfortunately usually over made up. Possibly the occasional shim?

Pizza place had a salad bar a while back. Pay your money, get a bowl and fill it up as much as you can. Amusing to watch patrons try to get as much as they could in the bowl provided.

Don't they frequently offer discounts?
Does the discount make the eating experience more enjoyable?

The eatery sprinkles a little heroin in the food so you don't know whybut you MUST go back
Yep, heroin, that's the ticket -- made with salt, sugar, and fat. Works a charm
