Chiang Rai Big Bike Repair - Service
- Thread starter Hua Hin
- Start date
Mr. Chet does fabrication on motorbikes for many Chiang Rai folks. Cannot say for sure that he could do it right away but couldn't really say that about anyone here.
Has some English but if you are there with the bike, English not needed. Show him and he will understand. Bikes are his life.
Phone number is 081-671-8565
The shop is located at the orange marker on this Google map- Google Maps

can they be repaired quickly ? If so pop in and see Marty at CR Saddlebags. He's a busy Guy though so only if you need a quick Fix
Bit of a delayed update. We rolled into Chiang Rai on the 25th and stopped at Mr. Chet's on the way in. He wasn't there so we carried on into Chiang Rai and found a hotel. Called the Harley dealer and they asked what bike it was. After I told them Ducati the guys said sorry we only work on Harleys. WTF? Didn't suggest any other shops or anything just said piss off essentially. This is why I would never own a Harley. We drove around and stopped at a couple of small bike shops that gave us directions to another shop but it was late in the day and when we got there it was closed. Went back to the hotel for a beer and a swim in the pool and I decided to try and call Mr. Chet. He said he would be at his shop in the morning until noon and could help if we arrived early. We showed up at 8:30 and he had us on the road by 9:30. Asked the price and he said 100 baht. Gave him 200 baht and left with a smile. Mr. Chet seems like a great guy and has a great attitude. Can't say the same for Golden Sun.
Good news, getting sorted so cheaply.
If you've got some photos to promote Mr Chet pls let us have them.
I happen to know Khun Jub at Golden Sun personally. I have known him and his father for more than 15 years. He is a real gentleman, so please don't get the wrong impression. Their business is selling and repairing Harleys and it is true, they don't sell or work on any other make of bike. That does not make them bad people, or make Harleys bad bikes. I have never owned a Harley but I often drop in for a chat and coffee with Khun Jub as he is always interested to see one of my old Brit classic bikes. Khun Jub also owned a Ducati until recently. Lakota has given a list of repair shops in Chiang Rai and thank you for that.
I agree with Ian, Jub has been an extremely polite gentleman every time I've met & spoken with him.
A top guy.
I like Jub too. And from what I know of him, I find it odd that he didn't offer a suggestion or make a call or two to help the guy out. In the spirit of the biker community, where everyone looks after everyone, it is good to send a biker to a place that can help instead of just saying "Sorry, I don't work on that brand". Jub knows all of these bike shop guys here in CR.
Here's another new shop that services big bikes

Kong Electrical & Big Bike Service
One of the longest experienced bike mechanics in Chiang Rai.
A Honda 250 specialist
The most popular reliable big bike mechanic in Chiang Rai.
A first class electrician. The best I have ever seen sorting out electrical issues
Kong's only problem is he is a one-man show, always overworked & got a back log of bikes to be fixed.
The range of bikes he works on is incredible. Ducatis - BMWs - KTMS plus all the Jap bikes.
He has an excellent brain, is meticulous, slow & methodical.
Everything is done for regular Thai prices, absolutely no price gouging.
A full set of spotlights wired up on the GTR's Vstrom
Old hands may remember him from 20+ years ago at Soontreeya motorcycle rent, one of the original motorcycle rental shops in Chiang Rai, along with ST Rental.

The link above works for me. A picture of the shop comes up, still in business. Try looking at 19.915555,99.846098.
24 km / hr Service - Thoeng.
A new - 12 month - service centre in the "middle of nowhere" on highway R1021.
A large, well-organised workshop.
A variety of bikes are being serviced—big and small.
Adjoining the shop is a regular scooter—small bike—service centre.
This belongs to the father of Anwar, the owner of 24 km/hr Service.
Anwar is a young guy who learned his bike mechanics from his dad, a lifelong bike mechanic.
Over the years, they have had multiple service centres in and around Thoeng.
Being younger and more dynamic, Anwar wanted to progress with his own business, servicing big bikes = 24 km / hr Service Centre.
Obviously he is keen and already has a lot of customers from around the area, and as far as Phayao, he says.
The bonus of his shop is a pickupand delivery service.
Well worth checking out sometime if you are in the area and perhaps not in a rush.
The shop should appear on Google Maps in a day or two.

If you cannot see it, it is located directly opposite Malee Coffee.

I recently had some work done here on my Yamaha X-Max 300 and was impressed with Anwar's knowledge, he and his wife have little English but are very fast with Google Translate, and somehow they make a video in Thai of what my issue was and used some program to translate into English, great for me and easy to understand, kept me updated with photos and text as some parts needed to be ordered from Yamaha Bangkok.
Very good job done and a well equiped workshop, knows how to check things with dial guages and feeler guages, something most local shops around here would not know what they are, its hard to find a shop here that even has a tyre pressure guage.
I hope he stays in business as the location is very handy for me
That's really good to hear your positive experience as I have been meaning to check out this shop further. I'm thinking I might get them to check adjust valve clearances.I recently had some work done here on my Yamaha X-Max 300 and was impressed with Anwar's knowledge, he and his wife have little English but are very fast with Google Translate, and somehow they make a video in Thai of what my issue was and used some program to translate into English, great for me and easy to understand, kept me updated with photos and text as some parts needed to be ordered from Yamaha Bangkok.
