The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Not PCX and not me but does show quite clearly what it is like to ride downtown Bangkok out to other parts of the metropolis.

Pretty sure that was a PCX that rode past on the right at the 50 second mark.

This is what I have referred to in other posts as to why a Forza is less practical if the vast majority of your riding is done in the city. This is what I learned to drive a bike in. Maybe my sanity needs to be questioned.

For those who don't know, the motorbikes with the drivers in orange numbered vests are motorcycle taxis.

Zig-Zag! 19th Nervous Breakdown
Just watched 11 mins. Could take no more. Insane! Spotted a few PCX's, so what! Did you see the women sitting side saddle as pillion? OMGosh, Does she treasure her legs? I Guess not! Sit proper! And look, No armor!
Wow this video is a real eye opener.
Hey You guys, be careful riding there. The Road's are friggin' madhouse death traps! Holy Crap! Not me! Never! Don't ask! Don't!
Ha! And I was just posting on another thread about being wary of sizing up tires? If I had the guts to ride those roads daily, sizing up tires would be happening. shoot! no sweat, no fear! I don't know whether to admire you guys for risking everything or tell you you're _________(no, I won't say it ).
That's enough excitement for me at 12:30am. Goodnight brave people. Zzzzzzzzzzz

Sidesaddle is very common among the girls with short skirts. Pretty hard to straddle a seat in a short skirt and not make it totally distracting to the other drivers. I always smile when I see a flip-flop or a sandal laying in the middle of the lane and feel sorry for the girl that had to go to work with only one sandal on her feet.

I watched it in its entirety over three sittings and would make the following observations.

1) Traffic was congested in places but this obviously was't rush hour and though he started in the downtown core, he soon moved out of it where there was "less" traffic.

2) He drove WAAAYYY more aggressive than the average person. I think I only saw him getting passed by another bike once or twice, and I think he overtook them pretty soon anyway. He almost looked like an accident waiting to happen.

3) My adrenalin starts to pump when I watch it. You certainly can't say it is boring to ride in Bangkok.
