Many a report has been written about this famous or rather infamous 1864 corners (from CNX to MHS)...but for those of us who made it an annual 6000km roundtrip pilgrmage from Kuala Lumpur to CNX via Hatyai, chumpon,kancanaburi, Nakhon Pathom, Chai Nat, Tat, Mae Sot, MAe Sariang then Mae Hon Son, Pai and finally CNX...we would have done closer to twisting and leaning onto 4,000+ corners Laughing Some of 'em corners are treacherous while others are a stroll in the park. Some you can just lean, throttle and power up. Others you will run a risk of on-coming vehicles in eating into your line!



For what is is worth..As promised during the Loy Kratong BBQ.
here's a sample video clip of some of the twisties...
