  1. I bought a plastic widget for 40 Baht to take the strain. But I don't ride long distances on flat straight roads
  2. This week they simply picked up two people for working in illegal activities that would stand up in a court of law if it came to that. Other jobs or hearsay won't. Not rocket science.
  3. How about a building contractor whose secretary "forgot" to tell him to renew his work permit then told him on a Saturday that there was an urgent problem at a customer's house build. Lo and behold when he got there men with black shoes were waiting. I have no doubt the Swedish man was set up by someone and was not savvy enough to know what can be construed as work.
  4. This is an absolute no-no. I though everyone knew that.
  5. I saw the picture a couple of decades ago so don't have land titles, no longer have a business ( although that was opportunity-related), and don't worry about my overall stability in the country. I simply follow the rules as I understand them. If I can't live here anymore, I'll have to go somewhere else. I've done that before as well.
  6. The USA is replete with outdated laws, as are other countries such as the UK.🤔 (Just for balance) A pickle is not a pickle unless it bounces Skateboarding without a license is prohibited It is illegal to catch a fish with bare hands Beer is not to be given to hospital patients It is illegal to walk cows down the street in daylight It is illegal to be found drunk in a pub Gambling in libraries is prohibited Flying a kite in a public place is illegal

    If Wisheer doesn't have it I think your chances are pretty slim. I wait to be surprised.
  8. Not forgetting the single most important words in the Thai language for tourists🤔 Hong Nam = toilet.
  9. A mate of mine's son is currently undergoing selection for the SRR. Not quite the same but...
  10. Just smiling internally that five guys are sitting in a nice warm cell, with three squares a day, being questioned by a guy in a suit after having passed the 36-hour Resistance to Interrogation training. Good luck with that.
  11. Agree, if the dead guy was in fact Syrian. He was probably just as foreign as they were.
  12. So a German dude goes back to Germany for whatever reason. Some guy fesses up to his house and tells the maid he is from the dealership and that the German guy told him to pick up the car to get it serviced so it is 100% when he returns from Germany. You are going to buy the car from that guy? I hope I am wrong but it happens a lot. I would get on a plane and go "down south" buy the car there in front of the registered address with photos of all involved do the DLT thing there and drive it back to BKK.
  13. Any motorcycle accessory shop will have them. Depends on your location. If it is a good place they will fit them while you wait. You may void your warranty if Honda are clever enough to find out but repairs which I doubt you will ever need are cheap anyway. Keep the old ones and refit them if you need to make a claim. I wouldn't go any lighter than 15 grams unless you get direct experience from riding another ADV. You are not trying to win a Saturday night drag race.
  14. Specific to your bike Mods that can make a difference? ADV 160:- Put 15-gram weights in the CVT. This will improve your roll-on acceleration and hill climbing.
  15. I hate to admit that at 22 I was still living at home. Post apprenticeship I joined the merchant navy as an Engineering Officer. Good money at the time and living aboard was free. I doubt any Thai football clubs need a receptionist but I know of an elephant sanctuary that is on the lookout for a new manager.
  16. Good here innit 🤔 But how often did the police observe you or could should they wish to.🧐
  17. If it moves salute it. If it doesn't move paint it.
