CRF250L available for rent in Thailand (Phuket)

Hi all,

I'm Australian and live in Phuket with my wife and have a CRF250L available to rent.

Take it anywhere in Thailand for as long as you need for touring. Arrangements could even be made to end your tour in Bangkok or Chang Mai if you wanted it a one way trip across Thailand.

I can rent it for 400 baht a day.


Cheers,


Simon

Depends a little where in Thailand you are. But I would say November to April.
In the south it may rain until December

Even in the rainy season now it rarely rains all day. There can be a downpour once or twice a day by plenty of riding time in between.

From the end of September onwards I would recommend. Its not so much the rainy season to avoid but the hot time of the year which is around March April May, at least this year were super hot.

October, November, December are really nice, not much rain and much less humid.

I'm in Phuket.

Also riding in the rain here in Thailand is very different to cold countries. I look forward to the rain. Refreshing and much cooler.

Up north now in Thailand its reported it has been raining continously for 5 days now. So by all means - a shower now and then might be refreshing but continously hard rain for many days is not very refreshing. It means landslides and closed roads, bridges not possible to cross etc etc…

Probably right for Chang Mai area as its mountainous. I'm in Phuket and we've hardly had any rain for several weeks now.

Was in Bangkok yesterday and didn't see any rain but that's still very far from the North of Thailand.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
