Farang Motorcycle Mechanic

Featured Replies

hi all, does anyone know a farang motorcycle mechanic operating in pattaya, had trouble with my bike for about 6 weeks now, sometimes it will start, sometimes it wont, have replaced the coil, had a new ignition switch fitted, had it in to mityon 4 or 5 times but no-one can get to the bottom of the problem, any suggestions welcome, many thanks

drive down to pizza hut on the corner along beach road 13/1 ...ask the guy there who rents bikes "who his mechanic is"..he is very good....

I know a very good Danish mechanic in Bangsaray.

There is a guy from NY that has a motorcycles shop called Platinum really close to the Xyte Disco and Tony Muai Thai Gym, he also makes pizzas in there and i believe owns the WOW food delivery service, not sure if he's a mechanic too, you can give him a call to find out: 038 410693

You can't be serious ! How can you possibly mention motorcycles and Platinum in the same sentence?? The two are incompatible.

It would help to know what make & model bike it is before any troubleshooting suggestions can be given.

Also age and mileage.
