Thai rain can mean flash storms or hours of drizzle — both change grip and stopping distance.
Before you roll
- Check tread depth and tyre pressures against your manual or swingarm sticker.
- Confirm headlight, tail-light, and indicators work.
- Use a helmet with good anti-fog or drop-down sun/visor options for low light.
On the road
- Increase following distance; slow before bends, not in them.
- Painted lane markings and metal covers are extra slick when wet.
- If visibility is poor, pause under cover until it improves.
