Thailand pics

Weird, not sure why I couldn't post the other pics?
 
Went to an American Car and Bike event today, buffet lunch. Indian was cool and allowed test rides of the bikes, Harley didn't (they did last year). Indian just took copy of license and gave you the bikes. No guide or anything, just here's the keys and there's the public highway. A big rainstorm passed through, we all crammed inside and watched the singers. We got there early so we had already demo'd the bikes.

They have good noses. If you have soft bags or food strapped to your bike in a national park its gone! I have seen one run up to a moving scooter with 2 people on it, tearing the plastic bag open on the hook spilling food everywhere. Then like 5 or 6 more ran over and collected the food. Their way smarter and bolder than squirrels. He new the bag on the hook of a moving scooter contained food and could be easily torn and just how to do it.

My cousin got bit by one like 5 years ago, had to get the full series of rabies shots.
 
Coming home today rather than go through the same police checkpoint for the second time today we cut across the lake. There were 10 or 12 guys riding the track there. They said it's public, just bring your bike.

Dude fired up a 2 stroke and did a few laps, I felt like a 12 year old again listening and watching.

Thank you for this thread!! Thailand is on my need to see list and you have generously shared this stunning country with all of us.
 
Do any of you know what tube size I'm supposed to be using on a rear Africa Twin with 150/70 R18 ?? I think I had a bigger tube in it before but stuck a 3.25/3.50 18RP in it today. I mean it feels fine but I have no idea if this is the right tube or if I should be changing it? OEM tubes don't have their size listed and I have found it kinda hard to figure out the size thing. At the time it fit and I didn't care. But now that I'm home should I be changing it?
Thanks

PS, after pumping it up twice and finding a shop it cost $11 bucks for the tube + labor.
