It was around 8am, I reckon he travels that road everyday on his way from pattaya police station to jomtien location, he sees Thais breaking the law everyday and he does nothing, he sees me and gets lucky. He was concerned that the muffler wasn't original. Anyway 200 baht fine, I was expecting 2000 baht

It's the wife's bike I'll check with her
-
The bike is my wife's, she used it at her shop for the staff to ride, no staff so I ride it occasionally, keep the battery charged. It's an older bike and the original pipe fell off, it needed replacing. Just had one of the local bike shops fit it. It's not loud just not original. He made me start it up. The cop said it had to be original He checked 2 boxes, so I was expecting 2 fines to pay.

I got stopped by a cop riding his Honda pcx,sounding his horn, waving his arm. He booked me for riding on the wrong side of the road and non original exhaust pipe, he told me I needed to change to original (will this be noted on next year's roadworthy inspection) OK, when in Rome, I know I shouldn't have and won't break the law again but read on. I took my ticket to pay at the police station, I thought I'd be paying around 2000 baht. I gave the officer behind the window my ticket, he entered the bar code number and asked for 200 baht. I paid, he gave me the receipt. I'm in shock. Anyone else with similar experience, I read fines had increased, I thought both infringements would be 1000 baht each BTW, the pcx cop gave my license back, things have changed, back in the day he would have kept it and I'd be picking it up at the police station.

There's a couple, the one I visited was on Sukhumvit corner Pattaya Nua, heading north They were asking 107,000 baht for the base model I didn't ask for the interest rate Over the many years the pricing for pcx has always been way above the listed Honda prices, Wave, click, Scoopy normal price at dealers. -

Yep, finance If you got cash they don't want to know you I went to a Honda dealer (motorcycle) here in pattaya, not Mityon. I wanted to buy a PCX160, much better price than Mityon but wouldn't sell for cash (not at a good price anyway) wanted me to finance. -
Some people get embarrassed by others doing stupid things. Oops, sorry I feel a little embarrassed by your stupid comment

Good comment but I find these people that die their hair don't bother with the important items to improve their looks, like fitness, grooming, diet, attire the list goes on. Most are wrinkly men who should have a few botox injections for improvement. The body has many systems that age, just a hair color I don't understand, it's embarrassing to look at these guys.

OK, I read you have health issues. So, get your family and friends to come to Thailand to see you. If you're really wanting to see them help with the finances, costs. It's about you, so do what you have to do. My family (neices, kids) and friends all come to see me, they love Thailand, to see all its beauty and the delicious food. They are so similar to me Loving Thailand

New honda PCX 160: Where to buy ? (Pattaya)
SAFETY FIRST replied to Spellforce's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
Nope, it's been that way for years on the pcx. I've used the website below for years and pcx models always differ hugely. Click, wave, Scoopy same price as dealer, not pcx. -
Isn't it called an apartment without pool

Where are you located

You'll find most of the negativity is coming from those living abroad. I reckon these people are negative and miserable because they aren't living in Thailand. Saying that I'd probably be a sad sack, miserable and nasty if I had to live back where I grew up. Sometimes I find it hard to understand, some of my friends have never had a passport, never traveled beyond their local area, never been interstate. Very sad Thailand has been my home for over 20 years and no regrets, everyday is an improvement. I travel around Thailand, often just talking off, staying the night at a hotel (cheap as chips) sending photos of my whereabouts to my children. I am a lucky one, having family here in Thailand, I would imagine Thailand could be a lonely place for some without having family with them. Thailand is the best place in the world to live.
