Mel - first line was "Just saw this photo, showing trike conversions made in Thailand"

Facebook page says Pattaya, Thailand and has phone number and email address.

Look here to see the mounting kit that I bought in Chiang Mai. http://www.hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f ... ivi#p85116

Re: Wrap a PCX ?

cocteau2x - just a small legal point

In Thailand, the color of the bike is listed in the green book. If you change the color, you will need to go to the Motor Vehicle office and get the book changed as well.

Re: Winter Battery Care

You should use a battery tender rather than a trickle charger. A tender shuts off when the battery is full, while a trickle charger does not - and will overcharge the battery.
