Big motorbike hire

Post by **SJP17** » March 17, 2013, 2:36 pm

Hi Folks

Im interested in hiring a big bike(250cc-600cc) for a bit of touring once Songkran is past, need something thats comfortable for two, can carry a bit of luggage and with proper insurance. Ideally id like to get something like the new Honda Transalp, but never seen one here.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Sorry I should have been more precise, It is the MC shop at the ringroad=Bunyahan Rd and aprox. 300m befor the crossing of Phoniyon Rd.
It mostly Harley's, but he has also other brands.
Good driving, be careful, this is Thailand and many farangs has has big accidents here bcause they think the rule is the same as in homeland, and many death accidents

Phantom is quite comfortable but it if you want to do dirt roads maybe not a good idea. Just remeber if you have an accident it is your fault even when it is not. you will pay.

Not always. I recently had an accident and the other guys insurance paid. It was settled amicably, no finger pointing/no drama.
