Happy children's day Because having had lives as accountants, bank clerks, Chartered Surveyors etc, now they finally reach middle age in their otherwise drab lives, have rented a woman and a motorbike which satisfies their menopausal troubles, they now actually think they are real Hell's Angels..... They're very. very funny to watch as they play 'bikers' though.... I have a pal who is a regular visitor to Pattaya who was a real former Angel in the UK. The first time he saw these jokers riding by, the look on his face as he stood by the road thinking "what the **** was that?" was a picture.... Why do you think they call themselves "Jesters"?

ATF Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Two reasons they ride up Soi Siam CC. The real bikers go to Bira Circuit to race and the Harley crowd go to the White Oyster, formerly known as the Black Pearl to partake in whatever. There's also a new bikers clubhouse recently opened on the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keebone Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 There was about 30 Harleys outside the GB Bar on Soi Siam Country Club when I rode by recently, I'd suggest you go in there and tell them what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardog Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Probably cause Soi Siam country club road is the slowest Soi to drive thru which suits the average speed they ride just fine. A little hectic on Sukimvette. No on likes being behind them when the scooters are going 20 kilos faster!LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n210mp Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Whats wrong with "livin the dream"? To be honest I have never seen those Harley boys drive either too fast or badly, Ok the noise is that of an Harley and to those who love the sound its sweet music to the ears. If I could afford one i would definitely have one, much safer and stable than those over fast and overpriced racing machines that the Japanese so successfully produce. Live and let live is my feeling with regard to this thread and to be honest they dont stick around in any one place too much do they or am I mistaken about that?

scubascuba3 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 one thing though and this is important. the only people who look cool on bikes are pretty thai girls, with flowing hair and slim figure. Everyone else doesnt look good. Keep it real. The noise is a little childish lets be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I used to be one of the Harley boys myself but due to family commitments sold it app 4 years ago. I do agree that some of the HD's are too noisy, mine was fairly dimmed down but gave a good bark when opening it up. That mean others on the road can hear you coming, there is a saying; load pipes save life's which certainly is true here in Thailand. I been a biker for over 30 years and have happy memories about my Harley days and my wife and I went often went on 4 days touring trips on it with fellow bikers from HOG, ahh happy days. The police sometimes halted the traffic at intersections so the whole convoy could pass in one go, saluting as we passed them. Most HD owners are nice relaxed guys and many are well off, as one poster mentioned, you can buy a small condo for the price of a new HD. Some are retired folks, some are in oil off-shore, some got their own business and so on, none are losers. I never had any intentions of becoming an outlaw biker when I was a HD owner but were perfectly happy being a member of HOG. If you don't know what HOG means/stand for, goggle is your best friend.

Popular Post davethailand Posted January 12, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2015 Some strange comments here, Is it jealously or are some people just miserable? If someone wants to buy a Harley and ride once a week with their mates in a group then why not? I know they used to ride to Ban Chang on saturdays and sundays then go round a few bars after, I also used to do similar. Regarding the clubs etc I was never in to that, I used to ride mine in shorts and flip flops occasionally, the waistcoats and patch no thanks. Also from what I've seen most of the bikers in Pattaya are generally well behaved and don't start trouble. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnybgood Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Sorry guys it's not about the bikers' wealth, integrity, or the size of their choppers, it's about........ Why this residential area? And Why every w'end? According to YouTube there seems to be about a half dozen biker gangs in the Pattaya area. Why do they all try to copy one another by noising up Soi Siam CC when they could be out playing Born to be Wild on the highways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davethailand Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 A lot of them live on the Darkside and Soi CC is the main route to many villages? Also Route CC is a biker owned place (or was). Have to admit mine was very loud but on idle or low speed it wasn't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keebone Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I think you're in the wrong country if you're worried about anti-social noise. It could be far worse, you could have gangs of Somchais racing screaming 2 strokes up and down continuously every night instead of the odd Harley passing through every weekend. Soi Siam CC is one of the roads I most use when going for a ride, from where I am it's a good route to get to highways like the 331 or 36. I've been riding through it since there was hardly any housing down there, it's still a fairly nice road to ride and it's just too bad if developers build on a main through road and people decide to move there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
