That's lucky.

You'll have to get Eliminator and yourself up to Isaan on the bikes one day. Good riding around Nong Bua Lamphu & Loei.

They are building new but this one looks like a copy. I don't believe any of the new Indians have a radiator.

**Rigger** · 03-11-2009, 12:17 PM

looks to be a yamaha dragstar to me or is it a 400 shadow ?

That's definately a 400 Shadow Classic.

Seen enough of those recently to last me a lifetime.

**nedwalk** · 03-11-2009, 05:18 PM

yea but chain drive? i thought them lookalikes were all shafties, and if it is a look alike what kinda deadshit would put a bloody 'INDIAN' badge on it, i got a mate who if he saw that would probably kick it over and rip the stickers off..he is more than a little one eyed

**Loy Toy** · 03-11-2009, 05:29 PM

I have never been into bikes really and have never understood the passion that some of you guys have for them (until yesterday).

I have though shared the trials and tribulations of some who have rebuilt older big bikes from scratch and did share the joy of one member here who called me yesterday and to let me here the roar of his big machine finally running.

Good on ya Eliminator and I hope your bike brings you the joy and happiness you deserve and after so much effort and all those little problems along the way.

Fucking long way to Oman just to watch you get drunk and piss the missus off!

**Rigger** · 03-11-2009, 09:35 PM

I mean when I get home. If I remember wrightly it was you that had to be put in the car last time spew boy

**deathstardan** · 03-11-2009, 09:44 PM

I don't own one but I'm thinking about buying a * Stallion buddy 125* from my local Big C to go to the shops on. At the moment they have an offer on at B26,000. I don't expect much for the price but it comes with three years warrenty and seems to be built well, not too different from a Honda Wave.

The only information I can find on the net is it has something to do with Suzuki but that's about it.

Does anybody know if they are any good or not? I really can't recall ever seeing one on a Thai road and I have never met anybody who has ever owned one.

Cheers, DsD.

You had trouble outrunning the cops?

**Nawty** · 06-11-2009, 08:31 AM

Surely it is not a copy right ??

I mean, what kind of bikie/biker would want to copy an Indian onto a Honda/yamaha or any such crap bike ?

The bike was across the road and I took it with a telephoto lense, did not want to cross the street and be seen taking photos of it and asking the owner questions like.....'hey dude, nice bike'....or 'hey man, how many miles to the gallon'.....or 'dude, wish I could have a bike like this, how much it cost'....or 'hey man, how fast have you had her up to'....etc etc.....I leave that sort of crap for guys like marmite.

So I did not examine it close enough to see what it really was, just the Indian tank caught my eye and the new look.

Would love a real Indian......dude, anyone know how much they cost ?

Dont forget to check out the pic in the Khao yai...or mountain mammories thread and see if that was you in the there...wherever I put it
