Sydebolle Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I saw this happening in Chiang Mai, where one Thai switched off the bike of another Thai guy, took the ignition keys and dropped them down the sewer. The owner came back, looked for the (missing) keys and had no clue what really happened. In Bangkok I witnessed a parked bike with a running engine; all of a sudden a bloke shows up, sat on the bike and drove away. Bike owner came out of 7/11 wondering what had happened to his bike.

SpicyMeatball Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 If the bike was unattended, I would gave done the same. Annoying runt 2 stroke. I would have also kept my guard up because of it & been on the defensive, knowing the attitude of these little s#&%$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnarth Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 if there had been a bad ass Thai around in a second the bike would have gone and the owner would have been walking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaurene Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Ye, don't touch my bike. I am from Liverpool and many years back I was standing at a bar in a pub when this guy from Birmingham came in and asked the bar tender the quickest way to this certain hospital, he had come to visit someone. The bar tender said. "See that guy over their sitting at the table, Go and pick his pint up." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will walk and pull a string with my little finger to open the hatch and all those nails drop in a row. Then I will go to a cafe opposite side to watch the show. It would give me a nice feeling.

No. Just old men trying to give sound advice for the future of Thailand who most of us love. I'm married to a Thai woman and am very happy. But Thailand needs comments from non Thais (Falang) to think about their future in the long term! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaidream Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 What a crude post from a Swiss citizen. I might remind you that assault is a crime- be it Switzerland or Thailand. Your slap will cost you plenty if done in a Western country and in Thailand- if done to a Thai- you would end up in a hospital. It's not called political correctness- It's called the truth.

dotpoom Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Yes...he was wrong to touch the other person's bike.....but the other person was more wrong for over- reacting...by first hitting him and then going off to get a stick and attacking him again.

jamesmith Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 to make the bike noisy is to show off his bike, he likes to show off but the swiss does not know, he may think he helped to turn the bike off. No matter the Swiss was stupid or not, in a smile friendly country , it is no need to hit someone like that. It seems now it is a trend hitting foreigner.

jenny2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I'd never switch someone's bike off unless it was after an accident.

MyFriend You Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 9 hours ago, Norrad said: Swiss people really seem to hate noise. I had a similar experience with a guy from Switzerland while I was staying at a resort on Samui. I went to pick up a girl who was staying in a bungalow next door to the one a Swiss guy was staying in. I was on my unmodded CBR300 which is not a noisy bike, especially when idling, and the guy shouted at me to turn my f***ing bike off, rushed down and grabbed the front of my helmet and proceeded to try pulling me off my bike. He was about 70 years old, so I didn't get physical with him, but I did verbally lay into him. An American guy in another bungalow also came and let the old coot have a piece of his mind, as apparently the guy would run over to his bungalow and bash on the door and windows if the TV was too loud. Sounds like the Swiss guy in JomTien Condo that didn't like the Russian neighbors watching noisy Russian TV, and superglued all the locks on their doors, then opened up the fire hose to flood the floor. He went to the Monkey House for a few weeks, then came back and just hung around watching everybody............freaky, maybe they finally got rid of him, haven't seen him for awhile.

Jeremy50 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Pedantic fools. It's got to be noisy and bright, or it can't possibly be fun. Never mind, live in a quiet place, and at night keep it as dark as pitch, with no outside lights, no Thais will ever come near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimcarr65 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I can't count the number of times I have approached my motorbike to have a Thai person dragging the back wheel to move it to make room or for some other inappropriate reason. Or come out of 7-11 and find someone just sitting on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
