Pattaya: "X-Speed Moved; Bigger and Better

[papa al]

The accessory shop formerly at 3rd and Lengkee moved north to a location

north of Central/Klang on on east side of 3rd.

A really big shop now with many goodies.

Also offering tricked-out Stallions & such.

They even have a variety of new model bikes with side-cars.

√ it out.

Mityon owned, of course.

Link?

I worry about the training/proficiency of some of the guys in these 'non dealer' attached shops, to do safe/correct fitment of parts.

[papa al]

No doubt.

Mityon sells the majority of new bikes around here

[guessing 90%]

Yet papa had a front brake calliper bolt fall off

riding from Mityon's main repair station on Pattaya Tai.

Prefer a shop where can watch the work.

Ask questions.

Make suggestions.

Keep an eye on the boys.

Terrible service.

 

Bought a helmet there & all good but when I returned a week later to buy one of their bikes?

 

The bike wouldn't start, had a flat battery(I believe) & I asked the girl if she could get it started for me. She told me that I had to buy the bike 1st by paying 150,000 baht & then they would fit a battery. I told her that I can't buy the bike until I know that the engine runs. I also asked her for the bike's documentation. She couldn't find the docs & then told me again, buy the bike 1st before they fit battery. I walked out.

 

Returned a week later hoping someone different could help. The girl wasn't there but all 6 staff were just sitting, playing on their phones. I checked over the oil levels on the bike and looked around it but nobody came over to help so I left again after spending 10 wasted minutes. I was the only person in the shop!

 

They had another bike roughly the same spec but it looked accident damaged repaired, Matt paint & 1 or 2 bits missing but at least it started!

 

I have bought a bike from Mityon Pattaya Tai & got great service. Also bought a bike from Speed republic sukhimvit rd & got great service. For some reason x-speed staff just not interested in helping customers when it comes to bikes.

Thai staff completely ignoring customers? Amazing.
