I really like my 2021 Aerox, but two things I dislike are the front shocks and the bluetooth connectivity. The shocks in front are stiff, would like something better that doesn't jar over bumps. Rears with gas cylinder are OK. The bluetooth app is worthless as, instead of running in the background waiting to connect when near your bike, you have to launch the app everytime you start your bike. If you're out running errands, a lot of mumbo jumbo. I don't use it. Also, a minor inconvenience is the lack of stepthru. But, I bought an aftermarket hook for carrying bags which does ok. I'm happy to have the stronger frame.

Some people spend their whole lives searching for the next big high, and are never content; others find highs in the rudimentary changes of the mundane, and are always content.

Where can we drink pints of brown beer/ ale/ bitter nowadays?
frantick replied to johnnybgood's topic in Pattaya
Beer Lao Dark, 7-11, Dive Bar, Runway. Don't know if that's comparable to those mentioned as I'm not from the UK. -
I prefer the riding position of the aerox; feels more upright and in control like my sport bike I had in the states. All my friends ride pcx/nmax. They are slightly more work to park also. Have to buy a hook for transporting bags and meals, as my underseat is always occupied by a 2nd helmet, but that's true of all of those I've listed. Not a fan of the Click stepthrough design, works great for hauling stuff, but unstable at speed. Good luck whichever you choose.

Biden, DeSantis strike ceasefire as catastrophic Hurricane Ian rocks Florida

I'm sure, at least as of 2016, Florida welcomes many more undocumented immigrants than blue, "rich" states. -

Floridians pay federal taxes, just like all other Americans. They're certainly entitled to a few FIMA bucks from the federal government for relief. Moreso than the war machine $65b given to Ukraine, for sure. -

Biden cancels $10,000 in federal student loan debt for most borrowers

If you mean Republican, true, but it was passed in 2005, not Trump. Joe Biden voted for it. -
All I'm saying is it's really down to the individual. Many vaccinated die also. Why? I'm old, fat, and a smoker, so yeah, it's probably in my genes or the fact I've built up good immunity by never having flu shots or covid shots. I prefer the pre-2020 definition of vaccines. I'll leave it there.
-
Anecdotal, not scientific. Had the rona at least twice, no issues, no vaccine. But scientifically, I can't claim that being unvaccinated reduced my symptoms, just as you cannot claim vaccination reduced yours.
-
That is an ad hominem comment which you made. Does that make you dishonest as you state? Please tell me how you know, for scientific fact, that the vaccine protected you.
-
Yeah, I'll do that next time for sure. I'm sure Mityon does that, but I had the plug done at a local mom pop shop.
-
I just replaced my 2021 Aerox, also, slow leaking rear tire last Monday at the Mityon service center in Pattaya. I didn't request a brand or anything. Came out with a factory-similar tread, didn't note the brand yet. ฿1500 all in. It had a screw puncture I had plugged about 1 month into buying the bike, so wasn't keen on replacing a tire that soon. But next time, if the plug leaks like this one I'll get it replaced promptly. Hassle pumping it up all the time and never felt solid.

Chon Buri: Went today to make appointment for renewals. Appointment tomorrow. OK ok, I used an agent, but don't know if that contributed to the quick turnaround.

But... "...American men found to have the lowest rate of prostate cancer-related deaths among the 11 countries included." This old man's future, primary related concern. Sorry, all you "Commonwealthers", I'll stick to the p4p model. At this point in my life, I don't want them taking 50% of my Social Security for Healthcare.

The waning smiles / humor of Farangs.

My friend here is always saying this thing is S word, that place is S word, and I'm a C word. He's the funniest friend I've got. The world needs to get over themselves. I guess we come from another time/experience. Not to worry, we'll be outta here in the next 20 years or so. -
