Didn't know the guy but sad news none the less. RIP buddy.

Didn't know him either, but RIP, very sad......

Rest in peace Andrew.

Wonder why the need for this bully line though.

Anyone posting disrespectful posts here will be reported to his family and definitely, we will find you even if we need to look all over Thailand.

Rest in peace Andrew.

Ride in Peace A R

(Distressed and not thinking straight, no need to draw attention to it imo and maybe edit your post)

Very sorry to hear this. Also agree to be respectful to him as his family and friends may well see this topic. He has now been moved to the RIP group.

"I want to cry now to be honest, i am speechless. last two months, lost 3 friends at motorbike accidents". Wow, OP, 3 friends, that must be devastating for you, shook me up just hearing about that........... Such a shame.

I knew of the name , found his avatar , yes , same man , really nice poster. Great loss. RIP seems to little. Now his Honda has real wings , ride on bro.

RIP Andrew.

I will be away riding for the weekend. I will make a note to stop at 12 o'clock midday on Sunday for a moment's silence, followed by three big revs in your honor.

RiP.

Never knew the man, but any loss of life is a waste and sad, but is even more poignant when it's a fellow rider.

RIP man.

RIP

40 people die in traffic accidents daily here , stay safe on the roads.

RIP
