The bikers thread; trips, news, chat, all things motorcycle
Re: The bikers thread; trips, news, chat, all things motorcy
How about one of these here... good personal solution to the traffic and parking hassles.
Pal-V One
Part motorcycle and part gyrocopter, the Pal-V One will carry a hefty price tag of $395,000--as much as a Lamborghini Aventador.

Re: The bikers thread; trips, news, chat, all things motorcy
For those of you not aware; Motoaholic have opened a brand new 'Club-Moto' motorcycle clothing/accessories shop in our very own back-yard. Well not far anyway...
The shop will have a similar setup to the Club-Moto store in Bangkok with primarily clothing and a small range of quality motorcycle accessories.
It's about time a decent motorcycle shop opened in Hua Hin but just a shame they don't sell bikes
They also have a tyre changing station with a balancing unit.
G.P.S. coordinates: 12°28'18.7"N 99°58'17.4"E
(works with Google Maps but the street view is outdated)
10Kms South of Hua Hin before the Khao Tao turn-off on the Northbound side.
If they don't have want you want then ask the staff as there is a good chance they can order for you.
