    So many bikes to sort out. That is a dream task...❤ I have personal experiences from Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki and Triumph. All except the Triumph was below 700cc. The Triumph Trophy was a 1200cc beautiful creation with original saddle bags, original green color and the Union Jack painted on the fairing (I'm Swedish). I loved this bike the most. It was a 1996 model and if it had been a human, it had been a Super model 🤪.

I hope it’s not haunted!! Haha!! Love your channel!! …Um, I bought a Dooney Florentine Nano Satchel and a medium Amelia Florentine from kislux …but wait, Kurt Geiger Kensington, Chanel 19 denim…and a Hermes Officier Birkin 30, gold togo with double, yellow swift stripe/left front and yellow interior/palladium.

    I have been looking for a scooter primarily for more local transport and I just bought an Aprilia SR200 GT Sport, with only 1,700 km, 1 year old and it's in new condition as you would expect! A great ride, with that little extra power and smooth as silk! I am considering a Triumph Speedmaster for longer journey's and touring, so this may prove top be the place I can find one! It has to be pristine for me and low km, so we will see what I can find! I think it's worth a trip from Udonthani for a few days to look around Bangkok and see what else I might be tempted with!

    I like looking at bikes, but not riding them on the streets, only off road, as I had a few friends killed on these death trap coffins on wheels. I had a Honda 350 scrambling machine back in 72 for a while. My favorite bike was the 1972 Kawasaki Mach IV H2 Triple, aka the Widow Maker. The 750 was a suicide machine. Beautiful sound.

    I loved the 2 cb1100s that i had- 2014's. I rolled one up to 80k miles so I bought a second worrying that i would wear it out. Both were used and with under 1k miles for around $5k to $6k. Nobody wanted that bike here! Sold one to my buddy for $2000 as long as I get use of it when I come back from thailand to go camping in the rockies. I have 150k miles of experience on the bike, so if you have any questions about upside or downsides, just ping me.

I believe that only Pattaya, Phetchaburi and Prachuap have red plates for motorcycles. Looks like a big oil stain under that Gold Wing. Welcome to the good side of the bay!

    I own the only Suzuki VL-800/CT-500-C5 class in Germany, probably Europe. Imported from the USA and after conversions to EU standards found out that it is classified as a C-5 motorcycle whereas other imports are C-4 and C-6. That means I can not sell the bike as a whole, only parts since I would need pollution classification and tests that would make the bike too expensive to sell. Suzuki/Germany never mentioned that when speaking to them prior to importtion. Would never sell anyway!
