Ducati Big Bike Training In Bangkok ^_^

[BigBikeBKK]

Good to see that Ducati, Thailand is offering training courses! This course was primarily for Monster owners, but all Ducati owners were welcome to join. Somehow a lowly Kwacker snuck in too

This event took place at the Honda training / testing track-

Honda even provided some riding gear-

Certificate of completion-

I think it's fantastic that more and more brands are offering training courses! Looks like everyone had a great time!

Happy Trails!

ring the honda school ,they do a training course on sundays for big bikes but its only on about once a month so you need to

call them and find out which is their next date

they provide body armour ,helmets and if you dont want to learn on your own bike you can hire anything from a cbr 150/250 up to a goldwing

and nearly everything in between ,they have a great colection of bikes there

hornets ,africa twins ,fireblades ,blackbirds ,silverwing , even big maxi scooters if anyone wants to practce scooting at hi-speeds

Yes, Kawasaki offers training courses pretty much every month.

Some are for total beginners using KSR110's, others are held at BIRA Circuit, and still others are held at a number of different off road venues for folks with dirtbikes and dualsports.

Here's a complete list of Kawasaki riding courses in 2012:

Oh! And I forgot to mention- most of the Kawasaki riding courses are free of charge and include lunch!

Let the Good Times ROLL!

I wonder if the Insurance comapanies are helping to subsidise such courses in order to keep claims down and prices sensible. Very difficult these days to get 'sensible' 1st class ins quotes and a lot of people opting not to take full cover....

How much is sensible? I think 40k for a bike worth a million baht seems fair to me, at least that's what the guys in a local shop were telling me the quote would be when i was dreaming about buying a new Aprillia RSV Factory mmmmmmmmmm

For the meantime 12,000Baht to cover my 2012 Ninja 650 1st class seems fair also
