  1. Hi again all.

    Just purchased the Aerox. What's the general consensus on synthetic oil ?  Worth the expense ? I intend keeping the bike for quite some time. What Km's to change over to synthetic oil ? How often for oil changes with mainly sealed road riding ?

    Thanks all.

  2. Some advice, info please. I'm seriously contemplating purchasing a new Yamaha Aerox scooter. For the past few years I've been using community Honda Wave & Scoopy. Time for a unit of my own.

    80% of riding will be town traffic & remainder short distance day trips.

    I'd appreciate advice, comments, both positive & negative. Also advice re the different versions. Standard, R version & ABS version. Is the additional cost per version justifiable ? I don't consider I'll be doing much, if any wet weather riding.

    Thanks in advance.

    Mods. Not every member read the motorcycle section, so would appreciate leaving this in General please.

  4. Try   https://www.fastcarhire.co.uk/      I've used them numerous times.  They are a brokerage that uses most of the major hire firms. I find their service far better than dealing direct with the hire car company.

    I've had occasions where say Avis or Hertz can't or won't assist, dealing through FastCar produces excellent results. I've had cars delivered to & picked up from my nominated hotel.

    Cheers....

  5. Good morning all.

    Can anyone recommend an ophthalmologist please ?   I reside in Sakon Nakhon so I can drive easily to Udon Thani or Khon Kaen. If the recommendation is Chiang Mai or Bangkok I'm happy to travel if necessary.

    I haven't had an eye examination for some years. I'm developing some night vision focus issues. I'll feel more confident having an ophthalmologist examination than with a basic check at a local mall optometrist.   

    Thanks in advance  :-)

    Geordie, mate !  They take the bulb out on purpose. If no tail light, the bad spirits can't follow them home. Quite logical really....

    You could donate it to dog shelter for the dogs to sleep in, or better still transfer into your daughters name and if it suits your agenda let her pay for upkeep then you will have the satisfaction of seeing her go broke as well. None of that is serious by the way.

    I knew that Thailand has it's share but I'm constantly surprised how many exist

    Dog shelters, dogs, daughters, nutters that post on TV ?

    The OP simply asked could any one guide him to an establishment where he could get a car crushed.

    He wasn’t asking for advice on how to be a parent or anything else, so could we stay on topic, this is not a family guidance thread

    "this is not a family guidance thread"  No, but it was posted on an open forum. I have no doubt the OP was well aware of the can of worms he was opening when he posted. If not, he has gained a wealth of knowledge about how he might dispose of said car.

    This is what I was referring to.

  11. Hi all.  This may not be the correct forum, but I'll try here anyway.

    For the past few years I have put up with True. Originally I was quite happy with the programs. Oh, True Platinum. Since they have ditched many of my favorite channels I'm getting somewhat disillusioned. I will be relocating shortly & need to have a new service provider. So, what options do I have ?

    I liked the motor, rev head, shows. West Coast Customs & the like. The old V8 Super Cars. I think now just Super Cars. UFC on Sunday mornings.

    Are there any other providers that might satisfy an old grump like ?

    True Platinum is now over 2,000 baht a month. I can't justify this anymore.

    Thanks all in advance.
