Bangkok Bikes Info
For the latest, newest and meanest of the big bikes in Thailand you have to go to Bangkok. There are places tucked away in other areas of Thailand that sell big bikes, but they tend to be the older models. Bangkok is the first place that gets the big bikes and also the place that most of Thailands bikes are registered. Aside from the main big bike dealers of big bikes such as Honda and Yamaha there is also a reputable independent big bike specialist to choose from. Instead of having separate sources specific bikes at Honda or Yamaha. With the independent dealer of big bikes you have more of a variety of big bike to choose from. Red Baron BangkokAlmost anyone who rides a big bike in Thailand has heard of these guys. Set up in the 1990s on the north-eastern side of the Bangkok they have built up an impressive reputation as being among the few true big bike specialists in Thailand. Having visited Red Baron we found them to be very professional and helpful.
Inside is the fully stocked warehouse. Most big bike dealers in Thailand have to scavange and order in parts from Japan, we don't think Red Baron would have that same problem!
