Hope this helps

1. New tyres highly recommended, New oil Semi-synth enough

2. There is no such thing as ever enough spares but minimum is sparks and fuses

3. Know how your bike handles on shitty roads. Fuel ranges at different speeds

4. Map of Cambodia M-Technik Paya Ubi Industrial Estate Pray that Chan has stock

Map of Thailand Go Hatyai Lee garden Shopping centre 3rd floor have bookshop

Mapbook Thailand Highway A to Z Atlas good quality and highly detailed.

Have never got lost in Thailand with it except BKK.

5. 1 day can but can u tahan ? Assuming u ride avg 100km/h inclusive of petrol, border and traffic light time(ie much faster than 100km/h),

U need from

GP to Hatyai 9 hours, 900km

Hatyai to Bkk outskirts 10 hours, 1000km

Bkk to Arranyapathet (Thai border with Cambodia) 4 hours,400km

Total23 hours

If u think u up to it then go ahead and try.

Avoid BKK at all costs From highway 4 turn into highway 35 (lesser traffic lights) then turn left into highway 9(surroundung BKK) then onto Issan

 

6. What sort of servicing U need? Only Phnom Penh have big bikes shop and they dun carry spares they order as and when they need from overseas. Bring ur own sparks and filters if just normal servicing. Semi Synth oil can get there.

7. Pillon is Ok except for SHITTY road between Thai border and Siem Reap(Angkor Wat town) Bike can handle it? Can u handle it?

Shocks need to be in good condition!!

If u have top box then on this stretch make sure its very secure.

Mine is high quality german brand and strapped with 4 bungee cords it still flew off

BTW STX 1300 or FJR 1300

If u are the type that cannot stand bike getting dirty and scratches then u better not go

 

Last and most important of all go FIND CHAN at M-Technik He is Cambodia Guru and has contacts there

If anyone is going to Cambodia... anytime this year. Just PM me. I'm interested.

Hi boon16, kinda interested.

 

will pm you soon once I can confirm my leave.

however, im on a road bike which might not be capable of multiple terrain.

do you have any planned itinerary in mind ?

[Pauche]

For those who would want to explore Cambodia without riding all the way there, may try to book some riding tours here:
