Dutchbike Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 We are heading to BKK for a shopping trip in a few days. I'm looking for a few parts for a project I'm working on, so looking for a ( the) district where they specialize in Bike parts, I've red somewhere in or around Chinatown?? (Khlong Thom market?) Would appreciate any tips/leads. Regards DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the jungle Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Big import bike or small Thai manufactured? I can give you leads for either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrilled Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 As many motorcycles that Thailand has,I imagine there are plenty of junk yards for motorcycles.I would go to either motorcycle shops and ask or police stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the jungle Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Poonsup market about 5km West of Rangsit. Main business is stuff for Fino, Scoopy, MSX and similar but stick with it and you will find parts for most Thai manufactured bikes new and used both in the market and either side of the road from Rangsit. If I were looking for parts for, say an NSR, either side of the road approaching Poonsup is the first place I would look. On used parts prices range from ridiculously cheap to insane.

In the jungle Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Google Poonsup (Poonsub) and you will get an exact location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramds Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 And where would you go for big bike parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickymaster Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 And where would you go for big bike parts?second hand? Try Red Baron. Also for new parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the jungle Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I cannot remember what days are best for Poonsup but do not go early. Many shops do not open until 11.00am or thereabouts. For big bike parts there is an area around the junction of Chulalongkorn 9 and Chulalongkorn 24. This area is about 3km East of Hualumpong station. Most of the shops here deal in car and truck parts imported from Japan but there are a few bike parts dealers. Perhaps four bike shops. The area is hazardous and chaotic. Do not take smart shoes as the area is soaked in engine and transmission oil. Mostly parts for older Japanese bikes. If you were looking for an engine for a V Max or bodywork for a CBR400RR there is a good chance you will find it here. One note of caution. I have not been to this area for a couple of years. Last time I was there it appeared the area was being squeezed by redevelopment. I would not be surprised if it is nothing but new condos now. Another area worth looking at for big bike parts is at the junction of Bangna Trat road and Kin Kaew Road. As you head out of Bangkok the area is on the right immediately before the junction. This area is mostly car and truck parts but there are a few bike shops. Last time I was there one shop had a complete and original Yamaha RD250LC gathering dust in a corner. Doubt it had a green book. Red Baron have a lot of used stock. Tend to be more expensive but really not that bad compared with buying unseen from abroad with import costs.

Dutchbike Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 @ In the jungle Many thanks for the leads, much appreciated! Looking for a few various parts,( front fender/meter/taillight) not really model specific so that market seems to be the best place to "browse" Is this the right location? Poonsub or Poonsup are way outta town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the jungle Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Yes. That is the correct location. On the road between Poonsup/Poonsub/Poonsap market and X-speed on the extreme right of your map there are used bike and part dealers on both sides. You will see them as you drive along.

dutchrdam Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 The last time i were in Poonsap, about 4 weeks ago, i left disappointed. Most of the motorbike shops are taken over by car shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidstipek Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Hi Guys... Need help finding an old Honda C95. Looking for complete Engine. Don't care if bike wrecked rusted-up what ever as long as engine complete. Will consider even if engine locked up, as long as complete. Do not want classic good looking as I will salvage engine for project... Classic needs to remain Classic! This is a 2 cylinder, 4 stroke bike. if there are several would consider more than one bike to get all parts needed. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the jungle Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Google "Motor Classic Shops". They are in Ban Bua Thong. They certainly have parts for a C95 such as forks, wheels and other stuff. Doubt they have an engine sitting there but they probably have the connections to get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
