Ha ha my second house is really near that area (amphur Phrao) 90km into northern direction from Chiang Mai

 

So I did "Mae Hong Son loop" twice but not on scooter...once onto Ducati and once on a Honda

cross post sorry

THX all.

 

@ kongfu

 

I don't know the meaning of processed?

 

Because the city is to crowded for my run-in session I leaf of to the country site... that's why you don't see much people.

I have no affinity with photography... just drive around and if I see some nice backgrounds I make my picture.

I also try to do my best to not make pictures with people on background etc.

 

 

In fact The Netherlands is the 61st most populated country in the world and as of March 9, 2011 it has a population of 16,663,831.

 

The Netherlands is the twenty-seventh most densely populated country in the world.

The 16,663,831 Dutch men and women are concentrated on an area of 41,526 km² this means that the country has a population density of 397 per km², or 487 per km² if only the land area, 33,883 km² is counted.

 

I hope this makes it more understandable

 

Cheers Jan:)

 

If u dun know the meaning of process means they are all not processed. Straight from the camera. Lovely sky, lovely scenery. Its beautiful mate...

@ kongfu

 

Ok now I understand ha ha Oh hells No Photoshop... straight from camera yes it is.

 

 

@Advrider

Loei must be the NorthEast part of Isan?...

probably one of the view city's I didn't visit on the east side of the country.

 

I love Isan , I love the "country side service" and Isan food.. I have many friends in Isan, almost in any city or village

I know they have a king project in Loei..they make wine "chateau du Loei"...

Till now never been there on motorbike... I amvery curious about that king project, maybe once have to go there on motorbike

 

So far I've been only to Khorat and Khon Kaen on motorbike, normally I travel around Isan by car, I have my own Isuzu in Chiang Mai /Amphur Phrao

 

Must be nice to ever visit you all over there...like I already said I know much about Isan and al good places.

 

OMG I am missing country side Isan.... main reason why missing is maybe because of I am used to the mounts in the North, and Isan is mainly flat.

 

Cheers Jan

 

BKK/ ChiangMai I did so many times so I can drive blind ha ha

Tuesday was my last ride with nice weather, the last couple of day's the weather was bad so that made me decide to dissemble the scooter so I could easily ad extra conservation onto the frame and other parts.

 

So Tuesday evening I started to disassemble the bike for conservation.

 

Each bike frame has holes and difficult corners etc.

so I used Valvoline blank crystal clear underseal/undercoat to reach all difficult places, like the inside of the frame tubes.

And I also sprayed the entire outside of the frame with the same crystal clear under-seal/undercoat

(Thats why the frame now looks more shiny)

 

I used: copper-grease / Lithium-grease / Ceramic-grease / ball bearing-grease / Graphite and Silicone-free multi spray / and as last onto all rubber hoses silicone grease.

The job was done by Thursday night and next I re-assemble it all back together.

 

 

My Ermax "smoke colored" windshield arrived last Friday

But like I have noticed already pages a go it's impossible to ad the plastic OEM bars onto this type of Ermax windshield

But since I like them very much I found my way out and customize the windshield to make them fit.

 

http://imageshack.com/a/img854/8876/sugv.jpg

 

Before I started too drill holes I added some transparent sticker to temporary protecting the windshield

http://imageshack.com/a/img827/1273/anmn.jpg

 

Added 4 marks onto drill location's

Fit, measure and drill holes for plastic OEM bars

http://imageshack.com/a/img571/9425/iz7i.jpg

 

Final result.

As you can see I also added the Kymco logo (I took from OEM windshield.)

Ermax inclusive plastic OEM bars.

I also made an additional power socket beneath the buddy seat,

and since the power socket is near by the battery I made the 2 amp fuse

into the battery box.

J@n, the usb you make yourself? Easy?

THX kongfu

Today I have to find some time to answer your message.

it's just a ordinary waterproof 12V power socket and inserted an usb plug, so nothing special.

If you carefully mark the right location it's peace of cake to drill the hole.

This second power socket is also not ignition switched, so it goes straight to fuse and next too battery.

I cant store my My Samsung S4 with "Defender Case" into the front luggage... actually I can store but at the same time I can't plug into the power-socket.

Just give Motorsport @ubi a call n u can have a direct quote without double guessing.

 

Thereafter u may also try calling those dealers that carry this for the best quote.

 

With rising COE, is it $15k now?

 

So it's best that u call the agent direct.

Just enjoy riding it stock first. Maybe after a while you will think about what to change.
