ricku Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) First of all, this is not meant to be a "VS thread" where cruisers and sportbikers fight about which bikes are the best, e.t.c. I just thought it would be interesting to know what kind of bike the majority of Thaivisa forum dwellers are driving. Me, I don't drive anything at the moment. I took my license a few years back and I got a second hand Triumph Bonneville at home. It is broken right now, and I am thinking about buying a bike in Thailand soon.. Kinda leaning towards a Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Custom or a Honda Shadow Spirit. What do you drive? Or what will you be driving soon?

Popular Post B1ade Posted August 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) Sportsbike all the way for me but only on long rides, and yes it gets hot in traffic Got a D-tracker for local short rides, loads of fun!

ricku Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 ^ Nice bike but that looks very warm for Thailand. But then again, the safety is worth it.It would be nice if there was a way to connect air conditioning tubes to the outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Now only PCX 150, sadly. When my son was born I could see the writing on the wall, no more 2up 4 days touring trips on my 2002 Harley Road King so it had to go. I miss the HD. The PCX is very good/fun for city riding and I enjoy it despite being riding big bikes on/off for over 30 years. One day maybe a big bike again, will never rule it out, a man got to have his dreams eh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Beardog Posted August 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2013 In Thailand I ride a 650 Kawi ER6n In the U.S. I have a 1000 Kawasaki & a 1100 Kawi. Just got the carbon fiber wrap finished on the ER6n. It took 4 hours to correct all the screw ups BP racing did on it in Pattaya & another hour to redo the electrics & replace 3 bolts that blew off the bike from not being tightened. Give BP a miss if you like your bike! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSJ Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) I've never driven a motorcycle in my life. In have driven many cars, pick-ups, tractors, trucks and a diesel locomotive on a freight train once....but only for about 10 minutes! Ask me how many motorcycles I have owned or.....ridden! Ps: My bad, I should have said 'operated' a diesel locomotive on a freight train once....but only for about 10 minutes! One word and I destroy the whole logic of the sentence.

It would be nice if there was a way to connect air conditioning tubes to the outfit. I've got war wounds all over, safety first! Its actually not bad when you get up to a decent speed, also protects my legs from the engine heat, painful even in jeans at low speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
