  1. The local Honda dealer have solved the problem for me, by finding a Thai company that do modifications of all kinds og bikes including the PCX with stickers. I have just ordered the PCX including the stickers (plus 1.100 BHT) and will receive it within the next few weeks.

    If you want your PCX to be unlike any other, please take a look at these customized bikes:

  2. Coincidentally I happened to see an electric pizza stone-oven displayed i an window, along with other stainless steel kitchen machines and equipment, last night, when I got stuck in traffic jam. The shop name is "King Machines" and it is located on Sukhumvit Road BKK, just a few meters after soi 62. If they don´t sell the boxes, I guess that they will know where you can buy.

    Pizza´s in Thailand could really need an improvement, so I hope that´s what you´re up to :)

  3. Passing a independent Motorbike shop yesterday noticed something different so turned around and went back..

    They had a brand new PCX in Red and white NOT like the picture 'Candy red' but a bright pillar box red. all I could get out of the seller was that is sold, you want 77,000 baht.

    The normal Thai colours a km or so down the road at a Honda shop the PCX on the road is 70,000 baht [includes paperwork, 1 yr tax + 1 yr 1st class insurance]

    Maybe at a independent Motorbike shop you can have any colour you want for the cost of a respray ?

    Did it still have the brown flaring and seat, or had these been changed as well? In the matter of fact, I can accept the current colors: White, Black, Grey and Gold, but just don´t like the brown flaring and seat.

  4. I would love to see a photo with the black color and the new seat too. I have been waiting for Honda to change the color from brown to black. Totally amazing that Honda only offer the black color for export and the brown color in Thailand.

    Does anyone know if there will be any changes for the 2011 model of Honda PCX?

    Check the colours here....

    Unfortunately these are the colors available for export only. Just a few weeks ago, I told a couple of Honda dealers in BKK, that if they can deliver bikes like this, I will buy immediately, but the answer was that they can NOT! They also cannot offer to sell the black flaring and black seat as spare parts. They can offer another type (polished and shiny) of black flaring from A.P. Honda, but that doesn´t look good at all.

  6. I stayed one week in Det Udom in 2007. I don´t remember the name of the "resort", but it is only a few roads north of Pracha road (the main road where the Amphur is located) and had a large Pepsi sign outside, why I used to call it "Pepsi resort". It was very near the local fresh market. Around 8 rooms (bungalow style). No luxury but clean and definitely less than THB 1000. Breakfast with tea or coffe served. No swimming Pool and right next to a chicken farm, so the roosters will wake you up around 3:30 am.

  7. There is no such thing as rechargable 1.5 Volt batteries. Rechargable batteries are all 1.2 Volt, which is sufficient to work as replacement for 1.5 Volt Alkaline batteries. May I recommend "Sanyo eneloop" batteries, which is delivered fully charged and ready to use. Furthermore they keep the power for years without charging (if not used), and will last for 1500 charges. Can be found all over Thailand for the cost of 500-600 Baht for 4 pcs.

  8. Park Plaza on New Rachadapisek road (Sukhumvit soi 16) near Asoke, or Majestic Grande in Sukhumvit soi 2. Both have great breakfast buffets with freshly cooked dishes. 4+ stars but not too pricey depending on promotion. For any hotel in the world, it is normally always cheaper to book on-line and a few days in advance.

  9. Sure and we could have new elections by the beginning of next year....

    Election or no election The emergency decree should continue to in effects as long as the Red Shirt keep trying to make problems by their so called rallies. There goals it to disrupt peoples life and destroy Thais economy for their own personal gains

    The emergency decree should continue, untill we have a proper police force, to seriously handle the red shirts during their rallies!

  10. The PCX here in Chiang Mai, at the dealer just north of Airport Central Plaza, had a price tag on it - supposed to be the new one. Bike in the background, the new CBR150 (Fi) costs only 2,500Baht more here.

    The bike in the photo looks good, and as I have been waiting for the 2011 model of PCX to come, I just went to a big Honda dealer in BKK today to buy it. To my disappointment they they told me, that such thing as a 2011 model of PCX not yet exist (maybe some time next year), and the one in the photo is just a 2010 model with stickers (accessories). Their accessory catalog though did not offer these stickers, but another less beautiful kind of stickers.

    Can anyone kindly provide more information about the bike in the photo, or eventually provide me the phone number of the dealer in CM?

    Thanks in advance,

    Finn

  11. Very good that at least the man at the top recognises it. Pity the rest of Thai society does not. whistling.gif

    Recognizing that there are double standards is one thing. Doing something about it is something completely different. The Prime Minister has said some sensible things about tackling the problems facing the country. So far, he has done little about them. He will be judged by what he does, not what he says.

    Exactly! Abhisit sees the problems, but has no power or will do do anything about it.

  12. When you book Air Asia you have to answer a question about, if you are disabled and need any kind of assistance. Air Asia has only limited resources to handle this kind of passengers, and that is why they need to know in advance.

    Don´t fly budget, if you don´t agree with the conditions! I hope that you enjoyed spending the money saved though.

  13. The Ipad has 100 times more Apps available than the Android based tablets. This is my reason for not buying a Galaxy, though its hardware part is much more appreciating than the Ipad.

    The Android tablet procucers have really been sleeping their days away. First they did not have the hardware ready, when Apple launched the Ipad and still they don´t have proper software ready. Most newspapers and magazines only support Ipad and not Android.

  14. OP Can you provide a link to the offending AD if it's not already been removed.

    Since there seems to be no 'report' function in classifieds either PM or email Admin[at]thaivisa.com with the link.

    This is the classified ad from the scammer: http://classifieds.thaivisa.com/automotives-vehicles/motorcycles/yamaha-t-max-scooter-500cc-sport-scooter-71736.html

    Please note, how the cars are driving in the right side of the road opposite to Thailand.
