ChiangMaiTrue Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I want to buy a bike, just don’t know which one fit best to me, I'm not a so young guy anymore Last Sunday I rented a Ninja 650 and drive up to Chiang Rai and back, it was fun (without wifie would be more fun) Next time (maybe this Sunday) I will rent a Versys 650 and drive again to Chiang Rai, maybe some guys want to join?

mamborobert Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Now I just feel sad. I take wifey on a Honda Click, and come back with more stuff than we went with.....always If I'm lucky its not one of those black chickens (dead). Apparently nothing as tasty as a dead black chicken thats been in a bag in 32 degree plus temperature for a few hours.

Buy her an oven If I did that there would only be one chance for the chicken to get Salmonella (that being after its cooked and left out on the table covered by a thin layer of gauze for a few hours in between each of the 5 daily Thai feeding frenzies).

STUDMEYER Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'd be up for a day ride to Doi Inthanon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiangMaiTrue Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 I'd be up for a day ride to Doi Inthanon I never went there but I see on G map this is a danger road, one line only, not wide, and not real fun to test a bike as you always have to watch out for stupid cars. Also the distance is not so long, as I say Chiang Rai is my go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hog Head Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 If not raining, I suggest up via the Fang route and back via Prahao and #120. Overnight in CR I may go on my Versys if there is interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoastBeef Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Sundays are good but I can make any day. Sunshine is more fun :-) I will be riding a Kawasaki Vulcan 900.

ChiangMaiTrue Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 @market trader, I mean the cars who cut the curves @Hog Head and RoastBeef, why you guys want to saty over night, I thought it should be a driving tour and not a boring day Last Sunday we started at 10 am from the center, we made 2 10 – 15 min stop on the way up, went to the airport and looking around, had a nice dinner and went home again with 2 stops, and we where home at 7 pm. Remember I went with my wife I’m not staying overnight as I hate hotels and I like to drive the bike Not sure but with the Vulcan 900 we maybe need one hour longer but this is ok for me. I think I cannot go tomorrow but I will update in the afternoon, let’s keep in touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
