Been using the type of lounge below since '06... about 600-700 baht. Easy to transport. Remember to spray hinges with WD40 or Sonex after every use. Lasts 3-4 years.

 

 

Nice project!

Hope you get on with it quicker than me with mine!

How long has yours been in-the-works?

 

 

Depends when you count from!

 

I am building one "good" bike from 2 not so good bikes... I bought the first one in September last year, the second one in November.

 

I actually got the tools out and started taking one of them apart in January...

 

So I'd say 6 months really.

 

I'd be happy with 6 months! I've already had a "tool" issue... many rusted/locked fasteners... I need an impact driver and an easy-out!!

Nice project!

Hope you get on with it quicker than me with mine!

I hope that you are satisfied with yourself .. OP. Everyday we turn on the television and are confronted with the carnage of men, women and especially children in Gaza.

Yet you find it suitable to display an avatar such as yours along with an offensive, supposedly witty, moniker.

Such crass, cruel insensitivity is not needed on here and so I suggest you start your own "What's On .." website so as communicate with your own trolls.

Ignominious.

Please enlighten us rather than frothing at the mouth... what is it you find so offensive about WtFugarwe's avatar?

As far as trolls go, y'all are the only one trolling.

Hmmm, not all that rare! A very quick search revealed this one posted up on July 15th at a reasonable-ish 5800 baht.

I think if you want to really trick it out a single sided swing arm is in order.

 
if you can find one nowadays!
a honda nsr150 proarm makes this bike a great looker!
 

Hmmm... I DO like single-sided swing-arms!! Should be lots of wrecked NSRs with good swing-arms about though, no?

Nope. They have been put on cbr250's etc

So my list for the seller is.

1. Signed copy of passport and visa (although if seller not in Thailand I wonder about the visa)

2. Registration book.

3. Signed form from Transport Department allowing transfer to take place without the seller being present.

This has worked for me selling bikes in in three different provinces, all of which were purchased in a different province, and I never had to attend the transfer procedure.

Additionally I have always made out a simple contract for my own records with a copy of the purchaser's passport. The concern here being that the bike is not re-registered and could be involved in an accident or crime.

I too have sold vehicles without everything I mentioned... but the items I mentioned are the official legal requirements.

OP here is what you are legally required to provide as the seller:

1. Signed copy of passport - picture page & visa page;

2. Proof of Residence - obtainable from Immigration, local police, or your consulate;

3. Vehicle's book, signed by you as seller;

4. Thai language sales contract with price;

5. Power of attorney form (limited to this one transaction) if buyer is in another province (i.e. not Phuket).

Copies of old and new passports since you have a new passport. Proof of Residence will be an issue for you though. Best to use an agent and swallow the extra cost.

Seem to be a number of middle-aged Thai bike enthusiast around where I live... they grew up on smokers and their kids seem to be into 2T motocross... apparently there are a few old hands around to manufacture chambers and there are still some aftermarket kits out there.

Being a fan of smokers I'll be looking replace the Yammy part with a tuned expansion chamber at some point - "pig ugly' to some is the simple beauty of two strokes to others...

Tailpiece like this (from Honda) is what I'm imagining... along with rebending/angling of the muffler/tailpipe to bring it up under the passenger footrest.

Forgot to mention: any parts-sourcing ideas welcome as well!! As the build goes on I may need help with some specific items...

Looks a bit wet there Mike.

Aye, we are getting half days of sun (morn) and rain (aft) here in Khanom... Its a good pic to play with in Photoshop though... an idea generator! I started a new thread on my mod... http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/forum/117-bikes-in-thailand/ - any ideas/sources welcome!!

Currently working on modding this TZM into a streetfighter...

The best way to reproduce your catalogue is using a camera and negatives. Simple job for someone with some old-school tools and the reproduction would be almost identical. Scanning is possible but not as authentic in this case. Please post or PM me a sample of the cover and inside for a better idea of how your catalogue will reproduce.

Contact the manufacturer in China (see above link to AliBaba) and talk to them about shipping you some 'samples' as though you were going to make a larger purchase.

I don't think that steve was being snarky... just incredulous at the question itself when the sois are awash in dogs waiting to be adopted. Often one just wanders up and adopts you.

this is obviously something every Apple user should know about.

Why? Its been there for YEARS and hasn't caused any issues... End users really don't give a toss - they just want their device(s) to work as advertised. only techy nerds really care about this shizzle.

Privacy is not an issue to you?

I tend not to worry about things that have not caused any problems. Reporting/exposing a backdoor which has been benign for years is not cause for alarm... BTW, yeti, boogie-men, straw-men and the Loch Ness monster don't worry me either!

1. I'm not saying it's safer but at least there are no known hidden "backdoors" in Android phones / systems planted by the manufacturer, if you know of any please provide the links.
