anon4637435435 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 No mod exhausts i pressume?..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratcher Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Nearly all the bikes will have modified exhausts (loud) I still have a big bike and had several other big bikes here including a Harley Street Glide. I met a policeman in a motorcycle shop when I was having new pipes fitted to the Harley. He had a Harley Street Glide too. My wife took a picture of us both and he gave me his phone number. He said if I was ever in Kalasin snd got stopped by the police to show the cop the picture and to phone him. It's all down to who you know. Plenty of cops with big bikes and loud pipes in Thailand.

You are brainwashed by the media and insurance companies. Helmets can be dangerous at high speeds due to the added weight and the natural weakness of the neck. Helmet use should always be a personal choice. But insurance companies figured out the fewer people that ride the more money they make. And well intentioned but misinformed people like you have a habit if using the force of the state to make people do what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hey Toyota tom..." ? Hey, Daihatsu dyke, I bet it will be more of a road block than anything else. Thanks for the gratuitous advice but I am perfectly able to make arrangements for avoiding hassle without your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I take it you don't like..." Take what you like. What's your apparent obsession with Toyotas that you're directing towards me and keep bringing up in a thread about nuisance bike riders? "why don't you try..." Why don't you try using the space bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
