  1. Police will sabotage it just like they did the last computer-controlled system.
  2. My memory is that when asked where she could park her motorbike the night-desk guy said just leave it here in the lobby. Then again she wasn't my G/F.
  3. Is there a correct colour? Asking for a friend.
  4. Please imagine away. I could not find any info. on Google to support your imaginings.
  5. Brilliant info as max torque is developed at 6500rpm so the stock bike needs lighter weights to allow the engine to rev to max torque during acceleration or going uphill. My Zoomer X also exhibited the same number ie 5500rpm. I have added your findings to my Zoomer spreadsheet. Going up to the local Wat from a standstill I could only get to 45kph but since installing lighter weights and getting around 7000 rpm I can reach 60+ kph at the top of the slope and more than 45kph with a passenger.
  6. I appreciate your opinion but if you have never used one how do you know whether or not it interferes with anything? It is simply a slip-fit over the twist grip. Each to their own.
  7. Sathorn Saint View is more serviced apartments but is an easy walk from Surasak BTS. If you like a pool it would do. Car parking may have to be negotiated. If only a few days then St. James Hotel it is above your budget but for 2 or three days? about 2000 more.
  8. My Zoomer gets about 8.9hp at 8300rpm. I rarely ever get to 8300. 105 kph is about 7900 so an aftermarket exhaust won't do much unless it has been modded to rev higher. A bit lighter yes, but that's about all. 98.8% of Akropovic exhausts in Thailand are knock-offs so what does that say about the owner? Edit: Most aftermarket pipes have a standard-sized pipe usually 32 to 50mm. They come supplied with a shorter front pipe expanded to 32-50mm. This shorter front pipe on a single cylinder may cut into the engine's torque output at lower rpms. So louder but maybe not as quick.
  9. O2 sensors mostly only do anything below 6000 rpm. So on small scooters almost nothing.
  10. Riding a motorbike is a life wish.🤔 I'd rather be riding a motorcycle thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about riding a motorcycle.🧐
  11. How long do you want to stay? https://www.oyorooms.com/th/86742/?latitude=13.660448&longitude=100.612133&locale=en Some places you can book for a month. Like Sathon Saint View. One of my mates is a frequent guest. He books for a month but stays for 3 weeks. I stayed there 25 years ago. The pool is nice. I sat reading a book watching the BTS being test run.
  12. My wife showed me some spandex she used to wear. I asked her "What are you going to put on the other leg" Not sure if I got my message across.
  13. She should have stayed at Ohm🤔
  14. I bought a plastic widget for 40 Baht to take the strain. But I don't ride long distances on flat straight roads
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. This is an absolute no-no. I though everyone knew that.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  21. Too thin to be a WallMart customer.
  22. Not forgetting the single most important words in the Thai language for tourists🤔 Hong Nam = toilet.
  23. Apparently, he likes living in holes on Brecon Beacons.😉
  24. A mate of mine's son is currently undergoing selection for the SRR. Not quite the same but...
  25. 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.
