nikster Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Free beers + big bikes sounds like a fantastic idea 555 I might go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I would be interested to see how they do a dyno run for a PCX! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRS1 Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 im going to hit the dyno and the beer, probably do dyno and go back in evening for beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I don't think they will be doing the same at big wing Pattaya, don't think they are in party mood right now. The windows in the shop have been shot in twice this week, lol. If they do I will only be visiting during daylight for sure or ask for a bullet proof west to go with the beers. http://www.pattayaone.net/pattaya-news/109653/shootings-week-central-pattaya-motorbike-showroom/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 man, why Big Wing Bangkok dont do these kind of things Love to attend such a bike happening and free dyno and beers man, that is great! well done Honda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktm jeff Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Yes , well done Honda. Other companies should put on similar PR events to entice new customers over to their brand. Honda can afford to do this due to their sales numbers , but free beer and cakes gives everyone a good feeling - and happy people buy bikes !. Other companies should take note.

BlackArtemis Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Dammit, I will be unable to attend, I would like to have my bike dynoed, even if I had to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRS1 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 you can get it dynoed anytime if you pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubberSideDown Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 you can get it dynoed anytime if you pay. I have no first-hand knowledge, but I've read that Big Wing will only dyno Hondas- have they changed their policy (or did I hear wrong?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRS1 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 You heard wrong, they only dyno Honda's for free. other brands have to pay, plus it pays to be nice instead of demanding when you go in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubberSideDown Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 That's good to hear. Would you know what type of dyno they have (DJ 150 or 250, or something else)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) actually, now i am thinking, offering beer at a bike gathering in the afternoon is not a wise idea imo though. beers are good when the day of riding is over and when riders are off their bikes at night. open invitation to accidents as egos will bloom with every mug of beer.

Garry Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Where were the Dyno operators trained? There is more to it than just buying one and reading a book. They can just as easily damage your bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRS1 Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 what a freaking waste of time, the friends of Big wing all got first lick at the dyno - no time for outsiders, told me to come back.....and it was true... the monkeys didnt know how to work it. Head mechanic set it up and left it to the chimpanzees. had to sit through some stupid motorcycle safety videos for 1 hour, then had to watch another retarded demonstration for another hour. Was trapped couldnt leave. when it came time to test ride the bike, they told us how we had to ride - screw it, gave my que ticket to someone else and left. 3 hours of stupidity, and the head mechanic was a prick, and they now charge 1000 baht for dyno. (but today was free) grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it's sign a waiver that makes me responsible for the first $1500 if there's an accident. Then the 20 minute spiel from the company bloke. Then you get a chance to ride the bike.....with a company guy in front and one at the back so you can't get jiggy with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the demonstration, the test rider did a brake test for rear brakes only and almost ran through the front barrier...lol... then he kept falling off the plank during the low speed demo - and they were trying to show us how to ride jejejeje oh and there wasnt no 700 Integra to test.

VocalNeal Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Head mechanic set it up and left it to the chimpanzees. Possibly because he also doesn't really know how to operate it so in order to save face left it to others who...? As for the friends? I'll give the benefit of the doubt that not know who would show up he arranged a few guy to provide, at least a show. Told how to ride the bikes. Yes. have you any idea how the average rider would ride a bike that doesn't belong to them when out of sight of the dealer. 1000 baht for a dyno run. Do you want one or not? How much do you think the machine costs, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do you think the machine costs, etc. Not enough to charge 1000 baht. I drive an extra 1.5 to bkk to get a proper dyno from dirt shop...Lets say they paid 1,500,000 and the average run takes 15 minutes on/ off and test.
