Surfing Spleen Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Does anyone know where to buy motorcycle leathers, riding boots, etc. in Bangkok? I don't mean leathers for a night on the town but actual padded motorcycle racing gear such as 1 and 2-piece suits for those times when you hit the pavement over 100 mph. Also, are there any motorcycle racetracks anywhere in Thailand? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajahnlau Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Try Siam Super bike,Red Baron and Siam Speedway for gear. The whole country is a racetrack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossiok Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 (edited) do they sell quality brands like alpinestars? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dont forget to get the vented leathers.I reckon you would roast in normal ones. Ps Theres a racetrack near Pattaya (about 10 miles out I think)that do a lot of trackdays. Near a hospital too,for those sky,ground,ambulance moments Edited June 2, 2005 by rossiok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess you are looking for dirtytracks not for speedtracks!! In this case there are some in BKK but I do not know where they are. I moved my bike to Malaysia and 2 times a month I fly to KL/Sepang and with about 25$ I can enjoy a full day in Sepang ...... all my friends are there, in Europe is impossible to run on a MOTOGP race track and if you can, the costs is about 50$ for a session of 25 minutes!!! In Sepang you pay, you enter and only when the track closes you leave. So if you really have passion for speed and want to join us, just pm me. ps. In Sepang I have a 996 updated to 998 specs, and "home made" racing pipes, don't let me think at my BABY, otherwise I get the plane today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitationX Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) I just read in the Bangkok post they're building a huge new race track in Chon Buri. Will seat 60000 fans initially (will open in 2006) then 80000 the year after. Can't wait!!! The article said it will be a "world class" track...so does that mean formula 1??? Anyways, should be amazing, can't wait! Edited July 7, 2005 by CitationX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldenbead Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 You can also try this place. I ordered a helmet from them and they sent it to me in Phuket. They were very efficient and friendly. http://dirtshopthailand.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiuey Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I don't suppose any one knows where I can get a helmet by either Bell or Pyrotect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
