Anyone know if this is sold in Thailand, in the case where?

My new Samsung TV has only optical audio output.

Take a look at this page if you do not understand what I mean ;-)

Sorry to those who might find this offensive, whether it's friends in Thailand or Norway;-) Smile, it's the weekend and the sun is shining

I am sure there are many like me who would love to ride along on such a good cause, but we need more than just 24 hours to get our things in order.

Next time, be that next week, month or year, give us a week or more notice if you can

I would love to give you this information earlier, I just got it my self today.

Leave Dagling alone!

He bought a bike and whatever it is, it is his decision and life and risk.

Nice bike man. I hope you will ride it long years with lots of fun.

And, yes, i know Isaan and there no police even dare to stop you. Besides, they are very nice there even if they let you stop.

So, you might not need any green book but if you want to sell it in the future with strict rules imposed on imported bikes nowadays, you have to get it soon.

good rides.

HEAR HEAR..

Pussies, the lot of ya!

This is what you want, what you really really want..........

(From a PCX owner and laid down Ducati 796 in Qatar). LOL

Such a plastic motorcycle is no match for a Road Star;-)

Congrats on the ride. Looks real nice.

Cheers Travelmate, hopefully it will look a bit better after I ad a new seat and new air filter cover I just order from the US....

Have nothing against Harley bikes or the people who run them;-) Have a lot of friends running Harly in Thailand and Norway.

But being a bit "frustrated" when comments like "nice bike, but it's not a Harley"?

Who said that everyone has to drive a heavy Harley if it wants a heavy Cruiser?

Had I wanted a Harley, I bay one. It's that easy;-)

Personally I think a Road Star is more comfortable and a nicer bike to look at. More horses and much better torque.

I do not care what other people are running, as long as you love what you have. Anyone who runs with 2 wheels are brothers in my eyes.

Mutual respect is whether you are a biker or not ... Remember it!

Ignore the haters and enjoy your new bike.

I do mate... I do

Well, as a Honda VTX1800 owner all I can say is......welcome to the other side.

You are now in the small privileged group of Metric cruiser riders who know the pleasure of having a big ballsy powerhouse underneath you.

The pleasure extends to riding in a comfortable position. Never being short of power to overtake. Getting respect (occasionally) from car drivers. Having other big bike riders become instant friends...well except for some Harley riders (I think they are jealous).

Enjoy

Yup, you must be right, we are too jealous

So, what makes the Harley a better bike then? Tell me..

Road Star vs. Fat Boy Comparo

"If we had to spend our own cash, for $10,699 we'll take the Yamaha, thank you. It's a torque monster that makes for a great all-day cruiser as well as a bit of a hooligan bike with the appropriate lose nut sitting in the saddle."

"While Harley has been trying for years to smooth out the vibes on their motors, Yamaha has engineered some "pulse" into their motors so they don't feel so homogenized and the bike has the sort of character that is uncommon for a Japanese cruiser."

I think if I was in your position I'd be a little more discreet.

Why??? You did not take this seriously??

Keep us updated how it goes getting the book sorted.

To be honest, I think I do not care about the Green Book here in Isaan with my journeys.

Police are not as active here, and if I were at some time be stopped, it costs me 200 bath and a smile.

I do not drive down to Pattaya and Bangkok, are mainly trips up here in Isaan. Loei and the national parks.

The bike has all the papers, and Tax Invoice.

Green Book costs me between 70,000 and 90,000 bath, and as I said, I do not really see the point of spending so much money on my usage of the bike.

Good on you. Ride illegal. Ride on cruiser guy

sent from my Wellcom A90+

Yes ... to hell with the BIB;-)))

Hey Dagling, the bike was advertised as having a green book http://www.bahtsold....e-109011?doqs=1 so if you paid anywhere near the asking price you should get a green book! But you say you have to pay another 70k for the green book?!

Green Book was optional;-) Price Green Book 420.000 bath. Without the Green Book 360.000 bath.

I paid 340,000 bath without the green book.

555... They pay to much money, for less fun

Here is my new Yamaha Road Star 1700, 2007 model. 16000 km. Cobra Longshot exhaust. Waiting for the Greenbook that should take a couple of months.

Cheers, but i found one Roadstar 1700cc. Will post some photo`s in a new topic.

Recommend a motorcycle dealer who has maintained a large fine and Cruiser bikes in Pattaya, where one does not require imagination prices. Is looking for Yamaha Drag Star 1100CC. or Yamaha Roadstar 1600/1700cc.

It goes without saying that the bikes MUST have 100% legal Green Book.

Please attach a map (google map) or equivalent, or address as I am not so well known in Pattaya;-)

Thank you for helping a Isaan man

Thinking of a new bike, but after this e-mail so I was not sure. Can someone explain to me what this means, and whether this bike is legal on the road? The bike is pictured with plate number. Will I risk losing your bike to the BIB if I get stopped in a control?

"Hello Mr.XXXX

This bike have real book but we change engine from Yamaha 1,100 cc. to engine Yamaha Roadstar 1,600 cc. In the book put engine 1,100cc. and We have the paper from import come to Thailand now. So The book can use with paper from import but the bike not legal because that custombike all bike in Thailand if not original (custom) you can't drive motor bike to transport government for tranfer name yourself. That mean We can made for you only change the name for tax they don't want check your bike you can pay yourself everywhere.

Thank you if you want more than information you can ake my husband Tel.08XXXXXX his name XXXXXXXXX.

Best Regard.

Still no W800 for the Thai market

That's my dream Kawa bike.

I just love my W650

Will we ever see them in Thailand? Love this bike;-)

Got the following email from Race Chip, and this solved the problem;-)

"Please open the chip and change the settings to:

Rotary switch 1 (left) to position “8”

Rotary switch 2 (right) to position “8”

Please test this settings within a testdrive."

That is amazing!

The 9-B settings have certainly worked for me right out-of-the-box. Maybe these are the settings for that other (lower powered) 3.0L engine.

Which year and model MU-7 do you have?

Try the 8-8 settings and see what happens....I may try it, too, tomorrow.

Year 2012, MU7 Choiz
