chrischronic Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I'm driving my motorcycle from Hua HIn and am wondering what the best route once near BKK to the Pratunam area would be. I was told that some of the highways and tollways don't allow Motorcycles. Any suggestions are much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I think this might be better off in the bikes forum. Let's try it over there for a bit and see if you get any answers. Topic Moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H1w4yR1da Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Pratunam is a very congested area. Not bike friendly at all. My old Ducati Monster once overheated there. But if you have to go there, once at the end of Rama 2, turn left onto Suksawat and then right to Taksin bridge and straight up Sathorn and Wireless Roads to Petchburi road and then turn left. Google Maps will be of help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I left to drive to Chiang Mai easy drive out of town as well, Lucky me again. It is called planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Great thanks for the info. I really appreciate the help! Chris do not be intimidated by Bangkok go to Google maps and check ll2 route on the highest resolution it will help you follow the route and recognize landmarks. I spent about 45 mins studing my drive route into the city and had no problems at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
