  1. *Bump*- really would like to move this on to a new home > price now reduced to 20,700 baht. That's a decent discount.
  2. Sorry for delayed response gentlemen- thought I had mentioned the price and green book in there somewhere-very important details! Yes, comes with the Green book ( wouldn't have bought it without one) Location: Pattaya Price: asking 23,700 , happy to negotiate a little ( as tax is due, seat lining has a small tear which could do with attention and little things which will usually come up with old bikes)
  3. Selling my classic '97 Honda Nova Dash, unmodified, original example (standard piston and ring). 125cc, two stroke. Rare colour and original body work/ stickers. Used to commute to work so needed it to be safe, as well as reliable.. and it has been ( foreign owner is a 2 stroke enthusiast so well taken care of- maintenance was performed regularly). Always warmed up properly and never abused when cold, still has good compression/ power. *All Receipts for work done available* - fresh transmission oil (Honda Protech 10w-30) & new spark plug - both changed 27/ 1/ 24 (last trans oil change was January 6th after clutch was replaced- oil changed regularly> every 6-7 weeks) _ -*new fork springs, seals and fork oil replaced June '23 - new battery July '23 - radiator and coolant checked & fine - new spoked rims and near new rubber (September'23), - near new chain + near new front and rear sprockets - new headlight assembly, - new black visor - * new clutch and clutch handle, new internals(basket) and new gear shift bearing bracket replaced by one of Chonburi's best 2 stroke mechanics , shifts beautifully. - New 2T auto lube tank - Near new 2T oil pump hose - Brake pads replaced 4 months ago. - New throttle cable -Near new back grab handle with original spare. A classic, nimble bike with that 2 stroke sound of yesteryear. streetable powerband. Not peaky like a motocross bike mild mannered when needed but with plenty of character. More comfortable for the pillion than the 150s with their flat board seats. I've spent more than the asking price. Currently it does not have tax/vat but I wish to move it on to a good home so yes, slightly negotiable. (but no silly low ball offers or swaps please). Reason for selling- buying a 2001 model Nova Dash as a project *Will throw in the spare rear grab handle and a near full bottle of Veloil 2T oil (to keep you going for the next month or so (bought 6th January '24) Thank you for looking.
  4. Simple is best. Their sauce is superb. Family recipe. Mediocre imposters? Fahgeddaboudit orrite!
  5. Do NOT travel on the shoulder indefinitely or for long periods or distances, particularly on those 3 lane highways. Be especially attentive if you are near built up areas with petrol/gas stations and stores on your left. As has been mentioned, lazy, inattentive and ignorant drivers as well as some police don't know the rules or don't care. Cars may be (illegally) stopped halfway on the shoulder and half in lane 1, to daydream/decide their next move, just at the time you are passing. Quite a shock may ensue. Ask me how I know..
  6. It just means more distractions. "Look over here! Not there, now go back to saleep". Sow fear, animosity and division. Distort and subvert original representations, intentions and meanings. Has worked for millennia.
  7. That would involve actual pohlees work but that might take precious manpower away from more pressing duties... being most helpful in assisting wallets to become lighter through vigilant road safety stops... to check hellmeht and lie sense.
  8. Yes, Wise works well sending from Europe, the U.S, Canada, Australia, Japan to Thailand..i.e rich countries to here. They don't seem to be keen the other way around. I second Aublumberg's advice- try Deemoney. I have sent money out of Thailand before. They have an app. If you don't want to use the app, you may be able to send as a TT / in person. Need to call them and ask. They may have a solution for you if Zloty is unsupported. Money transfer from Thailand to The World with DeeMoney
  9. Don't hide your hard on for "good" politicians and "better" parties, mate. AH yes, little Johnny Howard confiscating all those evil semi auto firearms. So Howard was justified to knee jerk react...to a mentally disabled young man with an IQ of 82, who incredulously had a kill to injury ratio on par with the top 5 sharp shooters in the WORLD at the time, who walked in to the gunsmith shop in Tasmania and did not even know a rifle was jammed with a LIVE round in it ( facing the rifle in the direction of the gunsmith)... who was coerced by his "appointed" lawyer into pleading guilty so he wouldn't be tried by jury to save Howard the embarrassment... and then conveniently making a minority, law abiding group, ALL recreational gun owners, who had done nothing illegal, ever scapegoats, to prevent a future occurrence of what had a small statistical probability of happening...? If that's the case, divorce has a much greater greater probability of happening and affects millions of lives negatively, especially vulnerable children...so why don't they ban guys with an IQ of 82 or more from marrying ugly, self centred women that the rest of us can see are trouble????? Just being facetious... If that's the case, Australia should've banned rear wheel drive vehicles , saving many. many deaths and injuries, as any knowledgeable driver KNOWS that a rear wheel drive vehicle is extremely difficult for the average layman to correct, after losing control thru oversteer.....and therefore to reduce mayhem, FWD vehicles are safer for everyone and the community.. So is Albo and Penny gunna save Straya and Australians, mate?
  10. That is a very good point. So when's the compulsory military service happening? And will you step in to lead the group and 'straighten 'em out ? Good luck getting their attention from their phones or them not freaking out once they hear a gunshot not on Playstation. If you do your job effectively, then any "good guys" won't have any need to "blow away" any "bad guys" because they will have been trained to give the utmost respect to firearms and society at large, right? Which is the whole point of training "any civilian", right?
  11. Voting for big, bloated governments of either persuasion have just given you more of the same. Are you connecting the dots? For those who have lived, or are still living in the U.S , who would agree that for most people, life has gotten better, easier, with less rules and regulations over the past 2 decades? The same goes for Suicidal Europe, Scandinavia, the U.K, Cuckoo Canada, Authoritarian Australia ( and N.Z). Protest, whine,, bitch, whinge, curse. Elect ! Elect ! Elect!
  12. Yes BkkBrian, feel free to move to Canada where the P.M froze bank accounts of protesters. P-R-O-T-E-S-T-E-R-S. People who needed to put food on the table for their kids and buy medicine for their mom's with dementia. Didn't we fight 2 world wars a few years back because of meglomania and a Will Smith extreme " You shut your mouth " attitude in dark coloured shirts? They say things come back in fashion. Must be an economic mini 1970's again- high oil prices, high gas prices, inflation. What would be really awesome is a mini 1980's - yeah , a lot of you secretly want mullet hairstyles to come back!
  13. Complete hogwash. Everyone is more than welcome to express their opinion without name calling but such black and white inflexible thinking is usually what leads to irrationality.. and everyday we see where irrationality leads to....right? Certainly an emotive issue and I agree SOME kind of initial step forward needs to be made. History tends to show that real, lasting change tends to come from the bottom up, from the PEOPLE... rather than the top down ( as in forced, which is rarely long lasting). If you hate guns, that's your choice. But to say they "only have one purpose, have no place at all in a civilized society" and they should be completely done away with, while I understand your intent behind such statements, is just as incredulous , divisive and irrational as saying guns should be available, easily, for everyone, with 30 round clips, at every convenience store, with no checks, balances or consequences whatsoever. You may not appreciate the craftmanship and skill, the science and the physics that have gone into making them, but plenty of "civilized" people do. How about the farmers dealing with a huge feral pest problem, should they just use knives and explosives from now on? Should we be blowing up feral hogs instead because a quick, almost painless demise is worse then a louder, more spectacular one? How about the trap/ skeet shooter ( clays)- bad luck, go find another sport? Have you ever fired a shotgun ? They do more damage than rifles at close range so if you are going to ban rifles you should include shotguns, handguns, bows, crossbows ( literally medieval), scuba diving spears and whatever else that teaches our kids "violent methods", including video games. How about the parent teaching their son or daughter how to hunt for food ,under the well meaning and loving guidance of "never to be wasted or taken for granted"; by only taking what you can eat (soon) and to respect nature (don't be greedy). Are these mothers and fathers amoral ? What about museum weapons of war.. would educating people about weapons used in history be completely obnoxious? Because then you'd have to be outraged at dozens of countries that have places of interest/museums showing these artefacts. Cambodia, Vietnam, Japan just for starters.. Would each of those scenarios be pointless, abhorrent, repulsive and immoral and need to be stamped out immediately?? Yes, it's tragic. They say one of the hardest things to do is to bury your own children. But let's not turn this into a free for all for everyone to pick on/ blame/ ridicule U.S citizens, when it's their time of mourning, in a time of national introspection. ( Becoming too often , I must admit). Isn't your point 1 death is too many? Or is it that young people with no moral compass are killing children? Or is it the way they are murdered? Simple, ban all knives , machetes, buses, cars, lorries in the U.K, Europe, Australia, N.Z and ah yes, Japan - ( almost zero gun deaths but gassings, beheadings... plus 150,000 children EACH YEAR in Japan lose COMPLETE contact with their fathers ( and mothers) by being a black hole for domestic and international abductions. Yes foreign fathers and mothers as well. Where is the world's outrage at the DECADES of deprivation of children's and basic parental rights they have in every other G20 country?? Did you celebrate their Olympics? Which part of "civilized" humanity was that?) Who here can say, with a straight face, that you are proud of your own countries politicians, always, in every decision? Good. Now get to work, those 3 other fingers pointing back at you are giving you a clue as to where there's more work to do and where it all starts..
  14. This would indeed effect change. But it won't be implemented as you'll offend/anger 2/3rds of the country. Every snowflake in the country will have a meltdown over it being inhumane. Remember, the left won the culture war a long while back. ( However, governments in most Western countries have enjoyed displaying way too authoritarian behaviours so less freedom is on the cards)
