Bear0Mack Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Quite strange that they would host it at Central World. They don't seem to care for motorbike riders there. Cars can park free for 3 hours, and have validated parking for shopping, watching movies, etc. Motorbikes on the other hand are lucky if they find a park, they must pay from the get go, and there is no validation of parking. I would think that BigC would make more sense in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carter1882 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 It is good that big bike parking us offered in so many places in Bkk now. Often it is outside of the main area with no need to get a ticket even. Sometimes these are 250 up but sometimes 400cc up. Sometimes they are even strict about this unusually for the metropolis. I have been to the bike show at central world several times but not for two or three years. For choice i think the shows as part of the motor shows at muang thong have got better but as the availability of locally made bug bikes has increased i guess all of the shows are more extensive now.

Bear0Mack Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I agree, there should be a separate area for big bikes. Those little parking spaces for scoopies often aren't big enough for a big bike. I do find it strange though that we're charged a different price depending on which bike we decide to ride to come there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Moo Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) Sorry I'll miss this one, I'm still in Brazil (until early next year). Bought my first bike bike in Thailand at the 1996 Motor Show in Bangkok, couldn't collect for 3 months as it was booked on several television shows before Kawasaki would release it. Sold about 13 years ago but would like to find it again and do a restoration, anyone seen my baby?

mrjon Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Hey Nick, i used to try to get a "simple answer to a simple question" on here, I found it impossible to do. To many sarcastic, have no life, nothing else to do , dudes waiting at the keyboard waiting to pounce. Hey, go check it out, never know what you might find. Keep the shiny side up brother.

PMZ Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hello Nick I have been for the past few years, good show (it's a bit spread out but apart from that, good). Most bikes on show but also lots of equipment sellers, so that should meet your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear0Mack Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Nick, if side discussions annoy you so much, perhaps you should try another site like Yahoo! Answers. This is a discussion forum after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickymaster Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Gonna go there tomorrow. Forgot about it. Traffic in BKK is great now so why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coley Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Nick. It starts near the end of January! I have enjoyed the show over the last few years. I prefer to leave the bike at home as the beer garden is worth a visit. All the 3 bike shows in bkk have got better over the last few years. Sometimes good deals on helmets and end of line gear.
