not bad Honda Thailand, all done inside 20 minutes while im having my cup of coffee from the nearby 7-11. my pcx felt like new again after 24000 kms. screeching sound of the clutch is gone, probably because the mechanic cleaned the clutch when he changed my belt.

now, next goal will be to changed my stock IRc tires into a citygrip or pirrelli..

parts and services are cheaper here for sure..

also, Honda is selling the dunlop TT900 for the PCx for $98 per set.

but i also could get the citygrip for almost the same price.

Iv'e never seen any review of the TT900, so to be safe i'll be looking for the Citygrip instead.

Perhaps, but without looking at average earnings its not possible to tell if its cheaper in real terms or not.

Average monthly earnings in Thailand is around $400
In the USA its around ten times that.
So multiply the servicing cost in Thailand by ten for a more realistic comparison.
