Toyota Yaris 2022 Tyres. Any suggestions please.
Kwasaki replied to Gee Bangkok's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
To some people tyres are rocket science, pretty sad really a bit of reading would solve it. -
It's not too bad there's more food banks set up now. Lots of railway arches at free vacancies.

The thing is how long do people keep their motors now, theysn be abused and you wouldn't know if the motors kept tidy. -
All my family and friends UK congratulate me for leaving UK to live in Thailand and a few of them are planning on doing the same. Horses for courses I guess.

Whatever the circumstances buying a bike in Thailand without a Green book will lead to it being g confiscated if you ride on the road and you get stopped by the police.

Can You Hire An Agent To Take Your Car/Motorcycle Exam?
Kwasaki replied to HappyExpat57's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
That's because you had a oridginal home DL when getting a Thai DL I'd expect. To get someone else to take a driving test for you is obviously illegal and no-one should encourage anyone to do it for many reasons, safety being one. Should be banned IMHO. -

Larger wheel you want Wave OK, test ride and practice somewhere quiet, semi auto easy, front pedal N, 1,2,3,4, back pedal 3,2,1,N if you have not riden for a while. If you can't ride a Wave you shouldn't be riding.???? -
Leave thoughts of back home behind when entering Thailand.

Kwasaki replied to 1FinickyOne's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
The new Triumph m/c's from what I know is run in via the Ecu not the rider. Other than racing engines I know of no car engine that's bench run in other within the development of a new engine. Driving a new motor I would say it's being bedded in IMO. ???? -
Done to death excuse the pun. Pollution depends some on where you live in Thailand.

New Car - breaking in an engine?
Kwasaki replied to 1FinickyOne's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
There no pre-run brake in as such engines are engineered to percifit specs so that running the engine from new is still much the same as running a used engine from cold or after a a long run, some people care most don't. The the run of mill is still much the the same here's BM's recommendations. Doing an engine break-in used to be a standard procedure with new cars. And it’s still the case that you should avoid running the engine at high RPM for the first 1,300 miles. Experts recommend a maximum 3,500 rpm and 90 mph in diesel models and 4,500 rpm and 100 mph in gas models. This will give the engine and transmission sufficient time to adjust to each other. Once you’ve reached the 1,300-mile mark, you can gradually increase your speed and your engine’s RPM. In particular, avoid to put too much strain on a cold engine. However, that’s true not just when breaking in a new car but for the whole life cycle of your car. Likewise, never turn off an engine that has been running hard. Allow it to cool down by driving a few miles at a gentle pace. -

The biggest problem is brown envelope size. My advice once was unless your Thai forget it.

I'm surprised you are asking, unless you are friends with the Chief of police in Pattaya to help him.
