These are great vids you've been posting. So interesting to see the kind of dirt bike riding we all do, but in an entirely different tropical setting.

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.

We all have stock fuel tanks, and tend to find fuel in small villages (mostly in whiskey bottles haha). We have those "sock" filters in the fuel tank to filter all the crap and so far it works out pretty well (https://slavensracing.com/shop/gas-tank ... tstream-2/).

North thailand has 3 seasons, rain season around june-october, winter around november-february and hot season March-May.

I would avoid march to may, far too hot (around 40 degres celcius) and it's usually burning season as well so air quality is bad.
Rain season is amazing, if you like mud and being wet :)
Winter is amazing too, around 30-35 degres (celcius), it gets hot but it's more than managable.
