Body filler is sanded down, not filed. And designed for paint adhesion, as it is porous. Epoxy filler metal is just that - metal. Not dent and scratch repair material.

Pedantic - overly concerned with minute details or formalisms

So you would go all the way to the nearest 711 to save around 150 baht ? While you can do it in the comfort of your chair at home ?

Amari still the owners ?

Remove all fuel from tank. Purge fuel lines. Replace fuel filter. Should be fine.

Next time, turn off engine, exit vehicle, watch what is happening.

 I have a CBR 300 R looking to move up to the CB 500X.

When I was looking for my next bike, went to Pop and rented a bunch. Versys 650, 500X, CB650F. Found the 500X to be down on power quite a bit compared to the others.

I read posts as quoted above and thank my Lucky Stars that I live in a different Thailand - indeed a different Universe - than those people.

Yes. Down about 100 meters from the corner. Also one in the old Carrefour - now Big C Xtra - on Superhighway frontage road east side, south of the 118

Someone suggested using the TV on the tech forum canthai55. But my TV is too big, and it would require rearranging the furniture. And someone else pointed out that the resolution is usually lower on TV screens than a quality computer monitor. They said that the refresh rate is usually slower too, which could add to eye strain. These things considered, I think I'll pass, but thanks for the suggestion

Usually lower ... on a cheap TV maybe. My Sony TV has a resolution of 1920 x 1080.  My laptop 1600 x 900. 4K is 3840 x 2160  8K is 7680 x 4320. That being said be sure and check before you buy. Many sold as monitors have lower resolution than a TV

Call to BKK. You are not far from there. Get best price, go, pay, return home. Or have them ship it.

I use a standard LED TV. 36" on patio for checking email, TV Forum, general use and a 48" in bedroom for video. Connect via HDMI adaptor so wireless. Streams 1080P.

I am in a kind of in between - I'm in my 30's and will be visiting Chiang Mai for 3 months (investigating whether to live there with my budget) - together with my wife and 9 y/o son...... while we are no backpackers...our monthly budget is around 1,200 Euros in normal spending money (with some tucked away for any emergency).

 

I wonder how we will do with this budget, I have a feeling we can do well, although many here told me we won't. With this budget we did great all over Hungary, Ukraine, Russia (Asian Part), and Mongolia - we stayed for 1 year in each place...... 

 

we normally rent a 1 bedroom basic appt - in the center so that we dont need a lot of transport or a car.....

we don't cook at home, eat out, go for walks, go for sport activities, visit parks and places of interest...

we blend into the society through activities of interest such as table tennis (going to an actual club) and chess, and any other thing that might help us make local friends....

 

What is your Opinion guys? we have managed in so many countries, will we manage in Thailand? :) 

Is one Topic on your plans not enuf. Advice given - and Ignored. Two new Topics from you already hidden. Your OP said you are too busy to research yourself - yet you have time to open multiple new Topics and post in others.

Actually yes, it is a common theory.

 

If you want to know the measure of a people, watch how they are on their roads (where they are faceless and have power over others) and how they treat those at their mercy.

One nice feature of belts - zero maintenance. Zero lubrication. Tensioner external so easy to check and service. Follow recommended change interval and no worries. Had them on many HD's, some with much more than stock HP. Never an issue. But inspect on a regular basis in that application.
