I've never been to this show, do they have stalls selling parts and accessories or is it manufacturers displaying their latest models only?

[ll2]

we will see the ctx700 there to for 400k they say. maybe that is what they hide?

And i am still hopeful for vfr800 2014 model, c'mon honda, you can also bring it here!

benellis is now at every segment, wonder teh specs of that 300 cc. if we give 5 years to Benelli and if no problems during, it means they are reaching maturity a bit and i might start to trust them as a cheap option for masses.

hope kawa is hiding ninja zx636

This one is funny
KTM is saying if you give them 339k for their Duke 390
at the motor expo show they will throw in a Akrapovic exhaust system
I think with that price they need to throw in a Duke 200

Pity as I think they have great bikes but crazy pricing

there are also stalls of parts, accessories and mod vendors there such as k speed, dirt bike etc.

so, you can also buy parts for your bike there.

If anybody see the stand for Bilmola helmets please tell me what the Carbon Pro Zilla cost.

I can get one in Pattaya for 8400 baht but will go to the Expo next week.

Many thanks in advance.

Haha better they keep their exhaust, how ridiculous. The thai price is 50% more than in europe! I dont get it why they are positioning theiselves in a premium brand position when this brand not even is anywhere else.

Service is pretty lousy too, still have a downpayment a 390 with them. They never called or anything. Will visit them at the show to get back my deposit.

some nice asses from motor show. one more reason to go there

[Richard-BKK]

The guys from Kawasaki probably have the Ninja 1000 (ZX1000SX) ready to be exposed.... Honda maybe has the new 2014 Honda NC750X under the sheet...

That would be a great deal if it was full power. I guess it's still restricted though?

this price list is indeed very interesting!

they also dropped the price of nc700 and integra more than 100 k thb!

and nc700x and ctx700 in only 349 k which make sit really a good bargain as well in Thailand. on top nc700x and integra has dual clutch auto tranny which is great, i tried.

But how come they decreased the price that much? i can understand the price decrease of nc700, integra and ctx700 as nc750 and ctx750 - just the engine is different all the same with nc700x and ctx700 - just announced recently worldwide by Honda a month ago so they want to clear the stocks a bit.

possibly Japanese - Thai trade agreement is kicking off nowadays?

if it will be like that i would like to hug the guys did this agreement between countries. well done!

630 k for cbr1000r is also a very good bargain.

oh man, Thailand turned out to be a biker heaven man suddenly!!!

Wow. Honda rocks. All I can say.

[Richard-BKK]

On the global market the Honda NC700X will not be replaced by the NC750X, the NC700X will stay available. The name NC750X vs NC700X is hides a bit that the NC750X is actual 75cc bigger. I cannot tell for certain if the NC700X will be a model next to the NC750X in Thailand.

I already have the English owner's manual for the Honda CTX700 for a month available for download on my website.

richard, i am sure you know something about this Japanese-Thai trade agreement that will be fully effective on 2015.

is that why Honda price went down drastically this way?

As i heard, the excise rate for products coming from Japan is getting less each year cumulatively.

do you knwo more to enlighten us a bit?

thanks.

[guzzi850m2]

Any news about the Ducati's?

Same price I recon?

[Hili]

this is the current price list....

[meechai]

Benelli 302cc Twin 129k baht

Depending on reviews may be a good deal given the suspension etc.

Dual front disc, wheels look like galespeed copy?

Wonder what the weight & power numbers are

Edited November 28, 2013 by meechai

Nice, I would buy that instead of the Honda 650's any day, don't like 4 cyl bikes.

But where are the dealers? Haven't seen them in Pattaya.
