  1. What tyres come as stock on the bike? Any good?

    I know most of the 150/250 hondas come with IRC tyres that are quite poor and often the first thing to be changed.

    Does anyone know if the Rosso 2 would fit on this bike, they seem most recommended for similar models.

    And how are your experiences with the bike so far?

    Any issues or advice for a prospective buyer?

    Sorry - don't know the make of tyres...feel ok to me, so won't be changing them until they wear out.....

    did 100km on it today.....i'm impressed...it feels just the right size for me and the riding position is pretty much spot on (i'm not a fan of the "lean over" riding position)....plenty enough power for me and copes well with the traffic in and around Pattaya (had a 500X before and was way to much of a handful round town for me)...

    No issues - its pretty darn good for the price and feels very well put together.

  2. 5 of us ate there again last night. Pate, prawns, pasta and omelette all excellent. Salads fresh. Quiche a tad bland and informed chef. Very quaffable carafes of wine. I still say it's very good value with inexpensive tasty French-style food.

    You informed the chef that the Quiche was bland, ha ha, I bet he/she loved that.

    Eaten there 3 times now, it's ok, but won't be bothering again. I think they are going to struggle now the initial 'euthoria' is wearing off.

    yes, have to agree.....

  3. Cool.

    Where did you get it from and was There any waiting time before you got it?

    I guess it's difficult to just get if from the store the same day if it's new release?

    Nice.

    Great price as it looks like it has ABS.

    Yes has ABS (and twin air bags...lol...)

    no quite wierd....

    went into the Honda dealers next to Honda Big Wing on the Sukomvit (Pattaya) this afternoon and they'd got just one 300F in there - apparently delivered earlier today...

    I asked the sales lady how long the waiting list was and she said i could have that one....went and got the money and 30 mins later was riding it along the Sukomvit...

    Quite surreal....

  5. When is the release for this bike in Thailand?

    Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app

    Its already released......picked mine up today..

    "Promotion" price 126,800 B

    Plate, tax, Gov't ins - 3,000 B

    They are offering 2 years theft insurance for 4,500 B (pay out 90% in the first year and 75% in the second year)....

    Very impressed so far...

  6. .........After 35 years of biking and 50 odd bikes under my belt, i'd go for a Honda CB300F over a Kawa Z250 or a Keeway sorry Benelli BN300 any day of the week.....

    And when you come to sell.........well we all know a second Hand Honda will be high on a perspective purchaser's list....

  7. i thought for your 800,000 b it had to be "instant access" and a 1 year term deposit didn't qualify ?

    is that true ??

    No, All fixed rate deposits in Thailand can be cancelled by the account holder at any time, with the loss of interest paid.

    Well you learn something new every day.........when i asked my bank if a 1 year fixed was "ok for retirement visa" - i was told "no" - so have had mine in current account earning no interest at all for the last 4 years....

  8. The biggest I have seen here was nearly 300sqm and very nice it was too, complete with a private pool on the wrap-around terrace.

    I was very tempted to take it myself but I probably would have felt a bit silly in it on my own.

    Oh to be a shilling behind K K ..........
