Beach Bashing photos from 23rd Dec 2012

Post by Black Bandit »

A beautiful rainy day in Songkhla Province Southern Thailand and us 2 maniacs are riding around, the Long Way Round.

Here was our route:
Through the forest trails and onto the main road heading towards the ferry port.
Cross the river and onto the floated plains of the wet Samila Beach coast.
Through the shore line and through the swamp and back onto tarmac which we were so damn happy to see after all that sand, dirt, mud, grime and insects!
What a ride with Bad Boy Daniel Baik aka Ragnadan and me. Enjoy! PCX Southern Club@Thailand!!!!

Yeah thats true, city bike out in the sticks...fun fun fun. That's why I've tricked her out for this purpose as I am buts. But now I'm trying to motivate myself to get a proper dirt bike. Maybe a 150 should be enough for the terrain I'm looking at hitting. What yall recommend?

^ That picture made me cringe! You must have so much saltwater in your drive case, you should take that off and clean up your drive belt and variator! :o

I'd presumed the casing was vented to keep the belt heat down

It probably has a vent hose on the top somewhere, but it was probably high enough not to get damaged, I'd guess.

actually that vent is very very low to the ground. It was completely under the sand when I got stuck in the beach.
