33rd Bangkok International Motor Show

First day at the Motor Show and your Omega Racer was there the minute they opened at 12 o'clock. I took loads of pictures. Unfortunately, those girls where always standing somewhere in the picture. I just couldn't avoid them...

Good, now that that's been clarified (I'm married after all..), let's have a look at the bounty:

a little beauty, Honda Dream50


 STALLIONS



I really liked this motard, nice design and well build. Sadly it's only for show and not for sale...



Stallions Mini Star 110cc. Again, nice bike, but not for sale.



The enduro version of the above motard. I don't know if they are Stallions or another Chinese brand. All I know is it's called STR and it's a 200cc














No, it's not another Honda Dream50, it's a Stallion Polo 125 Artist!


I tried really hard to get a full picture of that bike....seriously!



copy or not, it looks good!









devil...

....and angel?

YAMAHA

The new Filano in various versions/abominations

I must admit, when the Panigale first came out I wasn't too impressed with the styling. Having seen it live now really changed my mind. It's super sexy...even without girls!

Suzuki Swift...great little car and probably the cheapest in its class











That's it for today...a lot more tomorrow
