Went for a walk round

Well, the sun is out, the humidity is high, the girlfriend is at work so what better excuse did I need to have some aircon and look at some bikes. As the show was in a multi-storey shopping complex it was quite small but they did have some good bikes out to have a look at, and a bit of a mixed bunch too. Most of the leading makers were there.

Thanks for sharing all this photos of these beauties!

As you probably know Ducati is THE THING in Thailand nowadays. Even female soapstars have their own custommade pink Ducatis nowadays......

The Ducati Scrambler was sweet though. And the Tiger xcx was a beast. I was even tempted by the Ural....

Your Welcome.

The Tiger XC was nice and might try and get a test ride when I get back to the UK.

Although I would never get one, the Agusta F4 is my favourite bike.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
