  1. Your laptop has a transformer that converts the power......remember your normally pluging in to 220/240v ac and its transforming it to 19v dc....... I would ideally just get at least a 500w invertor........ and then plug the laptop in as you would normally no problem........ back in the uk I had a show car and in the boot had a small fridge working of a 1200w invertor no problems hth

  2. Had my helmet stolen today............ Where is there a good selection of FULL Face helmets with tinted visor in/around bangkok??

    And what sort of money they going for?

    Tinted visor is illegal in Thailand and police will book you for it :D

    Try topgun on Rama IV its on a junction on the left before you come to sukumvit.

    What about wearing sunglasses then?? :) same same but different lol......... havent had any grief in the past, but thanks for the heads up and thanks for the info on Topgun.

  3. If your looking at doing a corner as your image show.......... at 150k's you will kiss your ass good bye....... if your modded........ lowered and on wide rims......... you may stand a chance......... as long as you can get the power down to pull you around............ but your NOT gonna do that at 150!!!!!!!!

    Remember the trucks are very very light on the back end and any error at that speed will not be forgiven ............. you will end up with the back slipping out................ ........... try and see what happens ............. dont forget to post up the video and the before and after pics of your truck.

  4. Having grown up on the back of these things zig zagging my way across Bkk, I naturally progress to the footpath myself when the traffic on the roadway becomes too tight to negotiate.

    You lot need to get a sense of adventure. Thank godness not everyone is from 'Imtoouptightsville' :)

    And not everyone is a complete moron either!

    The majority of motor bike taxi guys arent morons either!!!!

  5. i went in to a bar down in silom a few months back for the first time dressed in a suit and looking smart and had a bit of small talk with the bar staff etc........ anyway.......... i went back in a few weeks later dressed in shorts and a t shirt with hair a mess and they remembered my name and what i drank......... which i was really impressed with.

    Think they say that eating alot of fish helps with memory......... and Thais do love to eat fish alot!!!!!!!

  6. People that are not experienced in the use of sidearms and that do not pass certification tests every so often, usually end up either killing or wounding innocent bystanders because they do not have the aiming skills and self discipline that comes from constant training or they end up dead when the attacker panics and shoots or takes the gun off the person. It takes alot of training to use a sidearm properly and to actually hit the target. Take a look at the people that don't miss. They train, have good eye hand coordination and most importantly, never panic under stress. Can you be like that?

    Every year, more people die in the west from the improper use of firearms than they do from their legal discharge use.

    I think my avatar says it all :)

  7. Bt2000 sound about right, by the way how old is your Mio? Our is 3 years old thus far no problems. :D:)

    Same age............. but I think that the exhaust had been "played with" before, have borrowed a mates welder and patched it up..... see how long that lasts :D

    Thanks for the info about the saphan kwai shops.

    Just out of interest thought you may like to see this Mio lol

    :D sanook mak maaaa :D

    the part is sub 2k baht, do you really have a problem with that? for an exhaust?

    No problem whatsoever............ I like to do a bit of welding ever now and then.... it only needed the seam re doing ........ whats the problem pal. The exhaust is as good as new now......... all for the cost of a couple of san miguels to a mate......... do you know what mates are............ coz your attitude is <removed> awful and I bet your only mate is your right hand when you go for a tug. :D Now go and talk with your best mate.

  8. What a nightmare day i have had and its still not resolved.

    I went to Laos to get a new visa on 14th and 15 May,........... since then i moved apartments and lost my passport in the move somehow.

    Any way .......... I got my new passport yesterday and went to immigration today to get the visa put in my passport.

    The immigration guys can see on computer that i left thailand on the 14th May.............. but there is NO RECORD anywhere of me returning on the 15th.

    I got sent up to the 5th floor immigration office......... and they can not see how i got back in thailand.....and they are making it sound like its my problem!!!!!!!!!!!! .......... not being very helpful whatsoever........ They are scratching their heads at the minute trying to decide how to put the visa etc in my passport.

    I was told to leave immigration and come back tomorrow when they should have some answers.

    Any of you guys experienced similar ............ and what was the outcome????
