I've known many who have got onto the roller coaster ride (having relationships with bar girls) and there aren't many that get off without a scratch. Enjoy the ride, it will be bumpy!

Fun at the time?

Oh yes but there's no safety mechanism!! You could easily fall out!!

Long story for little value.

How many beers you've had there Mr. Chase? Starting to get a little sloppy, I'd say.

Ashamed to say one too many. Thanks for your concern.

Bit of an old boy myself, owned a few super bikes, great fun, still alive! Not a Honda fan myself, only moped status. First new bike I bought was a 400NA .Super Dream. Hated the Comstar wheels. Like this one but R1would be top of the list. Superbikes are such a nice piece of art.

Why talk about women? Thai , English, American, wherever. Get a good one life is great, bad one life is hell. Same applies to them. Bad man, good man.

If I really had to marry a bargirl , I would make sure my Thai was fluent and talk to everyone in her family to find out more about her life. Even then it will be hard to find out if her thai boyfriend or husband is still around.

Or else you will be lied to forever.

My first wife was an American and her husband was a policeman and no one in the family told me she was still married while we were dating. They all spoke English; from the South so kind of English ( I understood most of it). Why do you think a family of any nationality will tell an outsider about a relative?

Balo:

Definitely hear where you're coming from. Totally agree that meeting your girlfriend's family before you start getting serious is a good idea, and the more you can speak Thai, the better you'll be able to get to know the family.

But the truth is NOBODY's going to give you the inside scoop on your fiancee's background. How come? Because everyone in town knows you'll be leaving on the morning bus, and that If they dare to say anything which sabotaged your fiancee's future with you, it would most likely get back to her. They'd still be there and have to deal with the repercussions of your fiancee's wrath, while you'd be long gone. So there's no payoff for them to spill the beans, To a person, mum's the word.

I know of a case where a woman stabbed her husband to death after catching him cheating on her with another woman. Long story short, she cut a deal with the police, was out of jail the next day, quickly went down to Pattaya, met a farang, got engaged, and brought him back to the village for the obligatory meet and greet. No one breathed a word about her background. She now lives somewhere in Europe. I'm sure her husband to this day doesn't have a clue about this skeleton in her closet. This isn't some folklore; I know for a fact that this is a true story.

Long story for little value.

So i went to my K-speed shop asking about black slip on that I can get on my bike and telling him that my wishes are to get some red acessories also.

I tell him there's a few parts from them that I like and also from BIKERS

He told me those were really bad quality about the paint they get on it....

ll2 how long you had your parts ?

what would you be your rating of them 1 to 10 ?

thanx

k speed parts fade a lot faster than bikers. also their aluminum is not as good as bikers'.

it is all about sun and rain and the level of exposure.

my parts start to fade after 1,5 - 2 years but i park my bike under sun many times also ride under sun, rain many times.

Like mine as it is. The young lads here do some nice things with mopeds. Very bling bling. Absolutly gorgeous old model bikes. Have no idea where they get parts from.

Interesting thread but deteriating. Another Chang required.

Now all this is off topic and spoiling the plot for chapter five of my book. Maybe the last chapter, where Angel discovers that Scotroll has inherited a fortune and they buy a condom on the Thirtieth floor of a luxury skyscraper on Sukumwit and he mysteriously falls of the balcony while Angel was not there and has a friend to state they were together at the time.

Yes , it is getting there!

Any opinion yourself? Reply was good.

How much is a condom where you live?

When I die, my wife inherits half my monthly pension, if she dies too before my son is twenty, he receives same and then inherits the house.

Other monies go directly to my wife on my demise. Trust the spirits protect me, other wise she would be a fool not to kill me!

And again I ask,

Why didn't you put the house in your son's name, and be manager yourself until he is 20?

What post? You don't mean the one about the ghosts protecting your investments do you?

My wife will get money if I die. Have no wish to let her know that. Great woman but always dubious.

What kind of assets can be protected when you get old?

Read my post!

No protection in that post, they just kill you.

Balcony jump or m/c accident.

Joyous outlook on life. Possibly true.

Didn't you get married recently from previous post?

This is the pic that says it all:

Do the TVR rules allow you to post pictures of my mia noi?

there was a common engine noise at 5000 rpms again where the engine runs lean for economy at cbr250r.

maybe that one.

Understand but not that. Could go round and round on where the noise is coming from, engine? Loose fitting? I am at a loss. Not angry but would like it sorted. Major or minor problem who knows.

any performance drop when rattle occurs?

The rattle affects nothing. Do not wish to test performance, 90kmh engine seized?

It is what it is. Unhappy? Yes. Fortunately I have other transport. No anger towards Honda, they have been good. My Thai is lacking and dealer is Thai only. We have had a joke or two but now onto AP Honda. See what happens.

May plant a seed that if they take it away I will be happy if it returns as a 500F.

than maybe just a rattling fairing or a shaky part. let them check the fairing, engine mounts and tighten the nuts etc.

maybe it gets better.[/quot

Had several bikes before. Considered rattling attachments, no way. Very strange. Loose component or engine?

Sorry but I can't say.

Maybe is the tank lid not tight enough .... just happen to me with my 2nd bike

Started to hear a strange rattle noise at 3000RPM and up evn in neutral .....get my bike to the shop and they just call me

Thanks for input but I am a bit long in the tooth. Fairing parts etc, been there done that. Could turn out to be a loose component who knows. Just want it fixed. No downer on the bike or Honda, s##t happens.

Seems to me that everyone is overlooking the poor economy, the lack of good jobs available, and a whole host of other things. You do what you have to do to survive in a world that doesn't give a damn whether you live or die. And a lot of you left a world behind you to live in Thai. Accept it and go with the flow.

Your glass is obviously half empty.

At the end of the day they are only a girl. Bar girl? Normal girl? Good and bad everywhere. Unfortunately because of where they work impression is every foreigner is loaded.

Nothing to do with the bar. My wife works for a well known wholesaler chain in Thailand and the people she works with all think I'm rich because I'm a farang.

Are you?

Hardly. I'm one of those farangs that a lot of people on TV scorn because we don't have 50,000 baht a month to live on. I get by on 15,000.

Meant no offence. You are richer than me. Money don't buy love. Helps though!

There was a married Thai couple, lived a couple of doors down from me in the village. Nice people, late twenties. Used to come round for tea. One day they were telling me all about her Australian husband and her Thai husband was saying what a nice generous man he was and she was telling me all about him and knew his exact geographic movements down to the day.

Of course Aussie had no idea of this romantic love triangle.

The next stage seemed to be to move her over to Aus (for the divorce) so she could do some gold mining over there too (his remaining assets).

No. You really couldn't make this stuff up. I think rgs2001 will remember the phone conversation we had about it at the time. Does give us a few laughs mind.

Stories like this make me very happy that I have ZERO assets back home.

You need assets for your old age . . . in your name . . . which cannot be got at. Because there comes a time when the light dawns and these guys realise that they're old and have nothing. Terrible place to be.

I am old, but I have my pension which is all I need to live a reasonable life.

I don't plan on being around when I'm too decrepit to enjoy life anyway, so I don't need assets. By assets I mean a house, expensive car or boat etc. If they want to consider my over 20 year old car an "asset", good luck to them.

After my ex got my house, I realised that going without to have a house that the next Mrs could also steal from me is a fool's game.

No such thing in my country. The courts will always steal a man's property to give to a woman that happened to live with you for over 2 years, no matter how evil she is. Don't even have to be married.

A shade sad but life is life. Things happen. Hope all goes well in the furure. (I did chuckle at the evil bit).

Why worry? You love her? Everyone may have a skeleton or two in the closet. Bar girl? Who knows? Nice and honest or gold digger? Not all the same. Life is life, r##k up now then, hopefully you can come back.
