Any updates?

I'm doing the same, from 96 to 107. I just bought a set of cylinders and heads from someone on one of the forums in the States.Going to have them done over there, pistons will have the rings gapped too. Bore and wiseco pistons and stage II heads ported.

If you don't want to do that then you could just buy new ones ,S&S are selling cylinders and pistons on ebay for about $630.

Shipping is the big problem DO NOT HAVE THEM SHIPPED BY ANY COURIER COMPANY PLEASE Use USPS, probably the best way.

Have you thought about cams, or did you do them already?

Yeah I used it at Assumption University, they have evening and weekend classes. I didn't finish though

So lets clarify this 91 Red is gone about a year now.

What we have now is 91 gasohol 20% Ethanol

95 gasohol 10% Ethanol

95 Benzene 5% Ethanol

Which colour/color is which ....green yellow orange ??????

Thanks

I want to give my bike a fresh look, I haven't decided on a colour just yet, but this is definitely gonna happen cos I've pulled the tins off already!

So my question is what do I have to do to update the greenbook ? Has anyone done this and what are the steps involved?

Thanks

Awesome looking scoot, did you have to update the greenbook after you changed the bikes colour? was that difficult/expensive to do?

Thanks

Ethihad airways and I think one other middle-eastern fly direct to Dublin

Thanks for the responses,

Mania, I will only send to USA possibly Australia. Any parts I have shipped come by USPS (post office) anyways cos I don't trust courier companies.

VocalNeal,A customs broker is what I will look for next thanks, again I want to try and avoid the likes of FEDEX DHL etc..I have also posted this in the SME forum but no responses yet

Thanks,

Gerry.

Someone in the motorcycle forum suggested I should ask this question here in the SME forum so here goes.....

I want to send a motorbike engine part out of the country to have have some upgrades done to it and then have it mailed back to Thailand

I have a few parts I'd like to send out to the States to have some work done. Shipping there can't be a problem, but getting it back in would create problems right? I don't want to pay import duty on something that I already own.

Is there a special exemption form the post office might have so that customs can see that the items originated from Thailand? I haven't had much luck there yet

Thanks in advance for any help

Not sure if this is the best place to ask, here goes.....

Has anyone sent a bike part out of the country to have have some upgrades done to it and then had it sent back to them in Thailand?

I have a few parts I'd like to send out like a throttle body and or heads for an example to have some work done. Shipping there can't be a problem, but getting it back in would create problems right? I don't want to pay import duty on something that I don't have to.

Is there a special exemption form the post office might have? I haven't had much luck there yet

Again looking for insight to this particular topic, not other options

Thanks in advance for any help

pm'ed you

Another Farang with a Harley in Nonthaburi, yeah! That makes two

I've a 07 streetbob. Are there any others?

I don't visit this forum much so couldn't help you with directions

Good on ya for helping out the Thai family btw

Anyone know the location of the Nonthaburi Bike week? I'm doing a circuit and including it in my travel plan. I've got two different locations within the city. There are links in Thai on the web but I've not really found them that helpful so far. GPS Coords would be cool!

Yes, it's today the 21st of April .I just found out myself last night.

It's being held at "The Square " Bangyai on the number 9 road, southbound side, the new skytrain is being built there, so that should help a bit.

nobody?

Anyone can help?

Hello,

Does anyone know about group rides in Nonthaburi? I've seen a group on Chaiyaphruek and Ratchaphruek roads Tuesday and Thursday evenings but that was a long time ago. I would like to know has anyone got a contact number? or does anyone know where they meet/what time?

Thanks everyone, have a great Songkhran!

I saw this finish on a bike at the Bangkok bike show and really like it, great contrast with a blacked out bike

I just got word back from Richco in Chiang Mai that they can't do it maybe some one knows where i could look now?

A coating frequently applied to dirt bike fork tubes and shock shafts is Titanium Nitride. Titanium nitride (TiN) is gold in color, and is an extremely hard ceramic material deposited on metal surfaces as a very thin film. The most common method of Titanium Nitride thin film creation on steel is physical vapor deposition (PVD). With this method, pure titanium is converted into a gas, reacted with nitrogen in a high-energy, vacuum environment, and deposited on metal as a thin film. Titanium Nitride reduces friction, and when used on steel has a coefficient of friction of 0.3. As a reference point, steel on steel has a coefficient of friction of 0.7.

Titanium Nitride provides the benefit of a hard surface barrier against nicks, scratches, and sand lines. However, the limitation is that it is non-flexible and brittle. If the fork tube or shock shaft is ever bent or deformed, the Titanium Nitride is prone to crack and then flake off. This increases friction. As well it creates a rough surface that prematurely wears fork and shock seals, resulting in oil leakage.

What exactly is a double taxation treaty? Anyone know?

mai Pben Lai mee nongsur

what does this mean? Don't worry I have ,,,,,,,,,

Thanks to both of you , I checked each one and I'll go with veerapat, cos its much closer and they've lots of other things I'm interested in!

Again, I really do appreciate the help :D
