A real big bike limitation in siam discovery. I was actually annoyed by all these pcx and cbr making the big bike parking full all the time. Now theres like 5 bikes hehe

Too high, stupid to block all +600cc bikes. not that big difference in weight

Yes quite stupid.. should be a 600cc and up or so.

Excellent idea!thumbsup.gif

Detest effete 500-650cc crowd.bah.gif

I mean, if you're not man enough for a liter bike....at least stay out of our way.cool.png

translation gents please?

I think none of the engine classing or weight issues makes any sense. It should all be based on width oif the bike. Some bikes are wider and need more space to park. That's the real issue here.

Size and price. You wouldn't want your 1M+ THB Panigale scratched by some Forza even though the latter is probably around the same size and certainly wider.

There is a difference between big bike riders who know how to handle these bikes and are careful maneuvering them around a parking lot and people who usually only ride cheaper bikes where a small bump into something is mai-pen-lai. And since you can't see it in the eyes of riders nor are there special licenses, your best bet will be by judging the riders ability according to the kind of bike he rides.

But honestly they should call it Hi-So parking :)

Wing Nut:

You have Panigale?

Cool!

Don't expect deserved respect from the monkey/Forza/mai-pen-rai. crowd.

Prolly avoid taking it to the mall to be on the safe side.

Just use the chauffeur for shopping. thumbsup.gif

Agree it should be 600 up or anything bigger then 500.. The difference in weight from the cbr600rr to the cbr1000rr is nothing.. Depending on the year almost the same give or take 10kg.

Would not like to park the 600rr in the skooter section.. Oh well.

Yea, the problem is that even coming in your Benz with a chauffeur and parking in the "super car" parking area, you'll have to mix with the plebs in the shopping mall. Live's not easy.

Like any parking attendant is even going to know or care how big the engine is ...

Well, that leaves me out in the cold.

Not that I really care. I don't shop in that area as it's far too expensive.

Now that I think about it... that's probably the whole point laugh.png

Weeds out the poor, a 650 could be bought by just about anyone on Thaivisa, but 800+ is proper money, and those with proper money shop in the Sukhumvit malls.

So thats 90% of us out then.

I think 500cc and up is better but as mentioned no parking attendant will care if a ER6 parks there.

Will Paragon allow a biker to pay for a car parking spot?

I can see why Paragon and expensive places want to segregate bikes but wonder why BigC/Tesco have small bike parking sections.

I assume 6 parked Clicks is 6 guaranteed customers, maybe 12.

One parked Vios is 1 guaranteed customer, maybe 5.

It seems not many places anticipate the demand for parking.

I see many of the new condos with less parking spots than rooms sold.

I think a parking garage on Sukhumvit would be a profitable business.

Ah they actually do! And they were carefully observing an er6, even asked me how many cc it was.

I work there thats why I need to park there, but not accepting the 600 plus is indeed a bit stupid. Im on a sportster 1200 so I do need more space to park

Big bike parking in Central World is for anything over 400 CC.

At Central Bang Na they just say: Big Bike Parking. And I have only seen big bikes parked (assuming a 250 is a big bike). Anyhow it is a large parking that is only ever occupied 20% or so.
