[Jonno_Dickko]

I’m Jonny originally from NE Scotland but been living in Thailand for the past 17 years.

Currently riding a Triumph Tiger which I’ve had for the last couple years , prior to that had a Bonny and a couple Kawasaki bikes since I moved to thailand.

Welcome to the forum. Good collection of bikes you have had there.

[Vulpes]

Hi and welcome.

[Octoberon]

Welcome to the forum, Jonny! Great bike and no doubt a great place to ride it.

[Wessa]

Hi and welcome..,

[Jonno_Dickko]

Yeah all good bikes, the Kawasaki and Honda most popular in this neck of the woods due to servicing centers and parts availability, but we do have around a dozen or more Triumph centers dotted around some of major cities,

[Hubaxe]

Welcome Jonny!

I think Triumph are now assembled in Thailand? not a bad choice then.

Welcome along fella

[Jonno_Dickko]

Yes I think quite a few of the triumph are manufactured at the factory midway between Bangkok and Pattaya, I haven’t been to the factory yet, but I’ve heard some motorcycle groups organise visits of the factory which would be quite interesting

[ajc400]

I read that most Triumphs are now built in Thailand, in a factory close to Honda’s facility there, except the Indian built 400’s and a few models still produced in England.

Greetings from Cardiff

Welcome Jonny, fellow Tiger rider I had a project bike about 10 years ago, Kawasaki KLR650-B Tengai that they only sold in the states for a couple years. Pretty cool bike. I also had the opportunity to fly in at midnight to Bangkok new years eve 2008 with all the fireworks. I spent 12 days there and Chiang Mai. Wouldn’t mind spending more time there.

[Jonno_Dickko]

Yeah, some great road trips here, weather mostly good but rain season now, just been out this morning for a few hours total R&R

[Jonno_Dickko]

I had the versys a couple 650’s decent bike, thought to go up to the versys 1000 but I thought it was too heavy, just my opinion so went instead for a Bonnie and a 2018 XCa 800, delighted with the bike coming up to 60,000km on her now, but never had any issue whatsoever with the tiger.
