Not the dog humping a football racer style seating position of other Ducati bikes, but more on the sporty side of sports touring.  A brilliant handling bike as one would expect from Ducati.

The is the S model so full Ohlins suspension, quick shifter, and the good Brembo brakes.  Traction control, ABS,  ride modes....the works

Too much bike for me at 65, and will take an air cooled Ducati + cash on trade

Does anyone know where to buy or have made a lift to load a wheelchair into a van.  Better yet a van c/w lift

A lift is preferred rather than a ramp

Legal blue (not grey) registration book and legally registered in Chiangmai so easy to change title. There are very few old cars in Thailand, never mind one with a clean title, with all mods registered and legal.

2011 Kawi 650 Versys
Original Engineer enthusiast Owner with too many bikes
The Versys shortfalls of bad brakes and cheap suspension have been addressed, along with a host of little mods to result in a much better bike set up for sport touring. Nothing left to do but ride it

Showa BPSF fork from a 2014 Kawi ZX6R.  This is the hot set up for ER6 racers and gives one the advantage of a much better fully adjustable fork and larger radial brakes.  New seals and serviced 100 km ago
This was not a cheap mod and I question whether there is another Versys in the country like this

This fork is 50mm shorter than a standard Versys and the proper way to lower the bike. The local practice, and one used by Motorwerk, moves the fork legs up on the yoke, thereby changing trail. As you might expect, changing the steering geometry is not the preferred lowering method

Rear shock is a Showa from a Yamaha R1 fitted with a custom spring.  
Mounted on a genuine Motowerk lowering block and not a cheap Thai copy of unknown alloy.  In combination with the front the bike now sits 50mm lower 

Larger 310mm radial front brakes
These are proper radial mount callipers,  not a radial calliper on a cheesy radial to axial mount adapter. Paired with the latest Brembo RCS19 adjustable ratio radial master cylinder this bike brakes like a sport bike, and how a Versys should brake had Kawi not fitted cheap brakes. Stock ABS is retained
Rear brake is stock 
EBC-HH pads both ends

ZX1 front mudguard

New Metzler tires
Engine guards
LED driving lights
Stiebel Natalus 105 db horn that gets attention
Hand guards on custom brackets and not the flimsy version supplied
Givi windscreen
Hard mounted panniers.  Positioned forward for better weight balance and narrower than the bars.  A fat ass bike is not helpful when trying to navigate clogged traffic. 
H&K Pelican style rear box on a custom powdercoated mount  that I only mount for long trips
Custom Side fairings to take away the stock anteater look 
Powder coated rear sub frame 
Acropovic muffler
Power Commander V and tuned with Power Commander autotune
Throttle body sub plates removed
Pollution control removed
Throttle bodys are paired
K&N air filter and air box opened up
Tank grip pads
Custom seat cover
Supersprox front and rear sprockets, with the strongest X-ring chain RK offers.  Rear is 2 teeth smaller for a more suitable road use ratio
Paddock stands
Radiator cover
Headlight modulator that constantly flashes the low beam during the day - this really gets you noticed by inattentive car drivers
80/100 W headlight

59,000 KM  on Mobil 1 fully synthetic oil and synthetic filter since new

Have all the stock parts, with both a workshop and parts manual

150,000 B and no time wasters please.  

If it does not sell at this price I will strip the goodies and sell the bike equipped like all the other Versys out there

I am wondering how Thai banks charge interest on a motorbike loan as the "promotions" at the current Motorshow do not seem like promotions at all

Triumph for example is offering 3.29% but the end cost seems too much.

Do they charge on the original loan amount until the final payment, or the declining value as one pays it off?

Do any Thai lenders on bikes offer what I would think of as a normal rate calculation?

Thanks but they cannot be bothered to answer an email

Looking for a CNC machine shop in the greater Chiangmai area to make a small run of 25 car pulleys.

I need to have a CAD drawing made of a pulley. Ideally by a shop with a 3D CNC measuring machine, but it is simple enough to do manually

Can anyone recommend a shop in the Chiangmai area to do the work.

no,   not at all,  cobber

its taken approx 5 yrs to get to your present position (IF true),   the question now  is,    how long ??   to close the present,  Hole  In The  Wall  access to Green Valley Condo

When that access is sealed,   good and proper,  perhaps the Home Owners of Green Valley,   feel they have. had a victory  ,  but my view is,  it possibly  be their loss, in the future,  due to the condos    not  selling,  in  a very favourable location in Mae Rim  

in other words , a  concrete skelton, (so to speak)  still remains on their door step, which surely will not assist their property  prices,   in Green Valley,  no good,  for all  partys involved,    is my call

its a Daddy Cool good arvo to all

 

 

 

You really have no idea

He is conspicously silent about the Green Valley Homeowwners court case, in light of his earlier touting of the Green Valley Condo

Your update above about the access dispute is contrary to the statements from some of GV residents, their word is that the condo lost the case in the first court and the condo group is now appealing the case.

Who is telling you it is done and dusted in favor of the condo?

The Homeowners won the case against Green Valley in Appeals Court last month.  The case is against Green Valley and not the Condo

The decision was that the gate access cutting through the mooban fence into the Green Valley Condo from Green Valley golf course road is illegal and must be closed.  Furthermore the Green Valley road ownership must revert to the Homeowners

K Sutee's shop across the road from Surawong bookstore.

Lots of choice and if he does not have your size, will bring in within a day or two.  In fact he brought me in 2 sizes of 15,000 boots so that I could choose the best size

Fair price, and he has quality helmets and all the good (and bad) gear

Ask Ducati on fb

@matale0

You would think that given that most have their noses stuck in their phones all day long my FB question from 4 days ago would have been answered

Maybe that is the answer and once the "sale" is over on the old models they will see fit to answer me

Is it coming?

No more way of editing?

Transiting Sydney to Fiji

So Manila - Sydney - Nadi Fiji all on a Qantas code ticket with Sydney - Nadi operated by Fiji Airways

I am leaving from Manila Terminal 1 on Qantas to Australia and onward to Fiji

The last time out of Terminal 1 to Hong Kong via PH Air they weighted my carry on and I was too heavy

Is Qantas weighing carry on as well?

She is a co-owner and speaks english

They are very turned on and worh a visit

The very day my new D7100 arives they announce the D7200 !!!

Bought the AFS 35mm F1.8 DX lens as a prime and may yet buy the Nikkor 50 F1.8 but not really sure if it is needed and will give it a bit of experience first

Nikon website describes the difference between D and G lenses and apparently it is the lack of the aperature control ring in the G

http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Learn-And-Explore/Article/go35b5yp/which-nikkor-lens-type-is-right-for-your-dslr.html

I would think that having an aperature control ring is a good thing? Then why is the D series cheaper?

Is there more to it than just the aperature ring?

I also see DX format specific 1.8D and G at

Given a focal length multiplier of 1.5 I was thinking of a 35mm prime lens with a fairly fast aperature spec

I am not clear on how the D7100 with focus motor in the body works with old manual focus lenses. Will the camera motor turn my old Nikkor 50mm f1.4 into an autofocus lens?

Bought the D-7100 body at 25,900 including a bag and 16GB card from EC Mall in BKK

Getting the Nikkor 28 - 70mm cleaned and will look for a good prime lens

No one has commented if the Nikon D3300 and 5300 are not "smart" enough for someone with my limited experience. The price is attractive but my concern is that the functionality will not be so attractive

Thanks for all the input and it is decision time
