^ I bought it in Sri Racha, the guy selling it said it was a 99 but i have the factory manual and accoring to the vin and engine number its a 2000.

It has a babyface japanese carbon can and titanium pipe, Rigger told me that you had one the same and maybe it is the same bike?

Nah it's got the original grips on it and I had a Geffen can or some sort of mythical creature. As far as I remember my can had a pointy picture badge on it.

If it's a '99 it will have analogue dash, '00 and above were digital.

get rid of those fucking nast grips and buy some fat pro-grips - about 400B or so for genuine ones makes riding it a lot nicer

It has the analogue dash, but i thought the digi dash was a 2001 thing? according to these guys the digital dash was introduced in 2001.....Model Information

As with all honda's there is a letter in the VIN marking that tells the age of a bike. V=97, W=98, X=99, Y=00, 1=2001

Its deffo a 2000

I'm off to Bangkok at the weekend to buy a few parts new chain and grips etcm any suggestions for good shops?

Red Baron is easy to get to and has a good choice but pricey.

Couple of shops on RCA - if they are still open or haven't been shut down or cheated out of ownership again.

Research HID setups. They are dirt cheap and will make your life a lot brighter. You can buy them in Thailand now easily. H7 bulbs setup I think. Twin HID's you can blind every somchai for kilometers down the road.

If you are dropping the front cog I think it's the VFR Vetec cog that fits on direct from Honda with rubber bushings.

The place to buy your parts is called Stadium, its on Rachada rd, I think they may have moved so will try and find out where they are. Red Baran will ream you silly on parts prices and they buy them from Stadium anyway.If you drop the front sprocket down a tooth you hade better make sure you have a top quality chain, otherwise it will wear in no time. I have some Scott oilers if you are interested.

Forgot about Stadium, is there not another place on Ratchada road? My memory doesn't work too well these days. PP yours is probably better.

What is the contact and address info on Stadium as I need to look for parts for a friend. He has a 94 or 95 Honda Transalp 400 that the front forks got really bent when he was hit by a truck. Thanks

This is the addy I have for Stadium, dunno how accurate this is because I thought they had moved onto Ram Indra somewhere. Anyway If you need some parts purchased for you give Pop a ring 0895064097. He only speaks Thai tho, He can pick up most stuff.
Eli, unless its for seals and the like you might have to go to RB for 2nd hand parts.

The other place on Rachada is that old hag at Paddock, sells the helmets and riding gear, not dealt with the old bitch since she sold me a set of defective gloves 10 years ago, they ripped apart after 15 mins and she refused to replace them, fuck her.

Elli

For spare parts there is a place near Red Baron = Somchai's Arai's can't explain how to get to it PP probably can. Not the most respected of parts people in BKK but always able to or has the parts needed.

Not really Mrs q, I know how to get there but Its a bitch of a place to get to, let alone explain. The guy will rip you off as soon as look at you although he treats Thais Ok.

He would have to have a Thai go for him, but he is cheaper than RB and very close so can check the bits.

Is this the name of the place: "Somchai's Arai's" as I can get a friend who's Thai to call for me to help my friend out. The forks are definitely stuffed so have to find something to replace them.
