May 26, 201016 yr I can't read Thai...... Thanks I've tried a few permutations of the address on Google maps, without success.
May 26, 201016 yr Author dvpro Many thanks, you must be able to read the Thai mind! I can't, that's obvious
May 27, 201016 yr I'm going to try to find it today and buy some saddlebags. Hi GD Out of curiosity what kind are you going to buy? I will probably be in the market for some in the next few weeks. ps Any update on the helmet labels?
May 28, 201016 yr Author dvpro You were spot on, how did you suss it out so accurately??? If anyone goes there on a bike, make sure you alarm and chain your bike when parking it in this area. ----------- Bill. The saddlebags were described on the website as measuring 20" x 12" x 8". Perfect, (for moi) I thought! Not so, they are shaped like a one eighth slice of pizza, not rectangular, useless to me, but great for someone with high pipes. They are a straight rip-off of the Cortech Sport saddlebags. The Motocy guy won't sell the saddlebags without the top bag either, so, it's take it or leave it for 4500bt. I have a few Cordura sports bags which are bigger, nicer and cheaper........ @ A$8.00 ea. from a sale in Bankie. The black, (only) display saddlebags had broken zippers, so, "buyer beware". The Thai's concept of marketing, never ceases to amaze me! Note: LivinginLOS has a set and seems quite happy with his purchase after 18 months If you don't speak Thai, take a translator with you. So, after 75 minutes in a taxi and a 300bt fare, I was a bit pissed off.... I wonder who makes saddlebags for the postman. Decals. I saw the vinyl guy yesterday & we'll get on with samples next week now that BKK is returning to "normal" Cheers! Edited May 28, 201016 yr by GungaDin
