Default Ratchaburi, Thailand. Day ride.

Once you get out of central BKK there really is great riding out there. One of my favourites is Ratchaburi province, which border Burma to the South-West. On these sort of trips you'll hardly ever see another vehicle, and never, ever see any police. ie, you get to open up and unwind.

There's lots of caves and floating markets and jungle. I usually just ride, stop for gas, ride, stop for food, then ride again though.

The little CBR is light as anything and great fun to flick around the bends. It's got lots of low-end torque being a single and can be a blast to ride.

Not a fan of the black/silver colour scheme I painted the wheels and exhaust cover black, and replaced the silver fairing with black pieces, easily enough as the US model is all black and the pieces are produced here.

Anyway. Blue skies, perfect empty roads, just watch out for the monkeys.
