brfsa2 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I have made a google maps with some bike shops in Bangkok. It's still on the works and i keep adding as I find them. https://mapsengine.google.com/map/edit?mid=zBGX9DhPzLPA.kgi7PFeJZEA8 if anyone wants to add anything to this map, just let me know and I will add you. I believe the 320 Shop has moved to the other side of the river. I've bought a few things from them at their old store. Helpful staff and it seemed like they a good selection of products. 13.727125 100.493914 according to their web site. Thanks, I changed the location on my map. I will now only update the Thailand Motorcycle Directory Project map. It makes more sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post H1w4yR1da Posted December 28, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2013 I started this thread for the use of riders looking for decent motorcycle shops in LOS. The idea is to give reviews on shops and let everyone know whether they are worth a visit or not, hence the thread's title. Let's try to stay on thread. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denkiblue555 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Can anyone recommend a good shop to buy some inexpensive mirrors that is open on SUNDAYS? I am thinking of heading to K-Speed, as I don't know many other shops. Paddock would be convenient, but they don't stock anything like that - gear only. Any help would be much appreciated.

Beardog Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 From my limited experience... I think Paddock are a waste of time, pushy staff and they over priced me on some items... I will not return there unless I need to. Panda Riders are much more professional and friendly, nice environment and well priced Mr S My Apologies Mr. Smith . I got your nic mixed up with another Smith poster that does not ride anything & just wanted to clarify I was incorrect on posting about you. Have a great new year!

Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Thanks LL, Looks like the main K-Speed shop with the mirrors and mods is closed on Sundays......so now thinking about 320SP shop? I have been there once before but the range wasn't huge and their were a lot of cheap knock offs... Will let you guys know how I go. Any other info about shops closer to the centre of BKK that sell cheap mirrors would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogpoo Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 This is a serious post, wore gloves for the first time today, not sure if it was me but I will persevere, if I get used to them I will invest in a decent pair!.

The ones I have are just cheap with some very small pads on the fingers, I will invest in some better ones soon, want to sort the bike out first!

Garry Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Why has half of my post been erased? Mods, I think there's a problem with the TV app.I posted reviews on Paddock, Dirtshop and K-Speed and it all disappeared. Waste of time! Mate, I rarely use the TV app directly. Get Tapatalk and log into TV from there. Works fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninja4me Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Anybody had experience with: http://www.motosport.com/TH I don't think they are physically located in Thailand, but they claim to ship directly. But whether there will be an import tax on items from them or not I can't figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whether there will be an import tax on items from them or not I can't figure out. Only Thai Customs decides on the import duty. Many think it's the Thai Post Office but they just collect the tax and deliver. I can't remember over what amount is taxable but it's often hit or miss. I've had expensive items shipped here untaxed and cheap(er) items taxed. And vice-versa. But occasionally eBay has items where the import tax is added at point of purchase. I avoid those items.

RubberSideDown Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Motosport.com is one of those companies that adds an estimated tax charge upfront (about 40%) so you're guaranteed to pay more if you use them- you're better off taking your chances with an eBay merchant where your stuff might slip through without an import charge. If you register with them you'll see the additional charge when you add stuff to your cart and start the order process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja4me Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Good info guys. What I'm after is a set of akra slipons. They're about 70K so I'm a bit reluctant to buy it from e-bay. Maybe I'll just bring it next time I go to europe - unless anybody know of somewhere in Thailand they are available.

What he is saying is anyone who wants to buy the R-77 in carbon he is a dealer & can have them for you in two weeks time for 34k baht Edited January 1, 2014 by mania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
