The Wannabe motorcycle club was originaly founded by a small group of europeans, namely of english and norwegean descent living in the north east of Thailand, a country most suitable for motorcycle touring with its extreme beauty.

Initialy, the club name came about by an accident, whilst drowning our sorrows one night, “reminiscing” over the bikes we left behind in Europe a few years earlier, before we came and settled in Thailand.

All of us had owned bikes, and spent a lot of time touring, in particular the UK, Ireland and Norway.
In Thailand we had only really traveled by truck, bus or plane, for convenience more than anything.
Not realising how much we were missing motorcycles.

The WannabeMc was born. Join us Wannabe's, and be a part of the World Wide Wannabe club.

2012 Honda Rebel - Video

I can’t think of a big-league motorcycle manufacturer that specifically uses the term “beginner bike” as the key selling point to lure new riders. Sure, some might loosely imply as much, but we’ve never seen a “Beginners-Only” tag dangling from a handlebar or in a brochure.
However, if manufacturers had to offer up one bike from their lineup that best defined a beginner’s model, we bet Honda would respond with one word: Rebel.

2012 Kawasaki Ninja 650 - Video

In the process of overhauling the two machines, the Ninja 650’s “R” of the previous model was given to its big brother as designations have flip-flopped: from Ninja 650R to Ninja 650 and from ZX-14 to ZX-14R. The loss of the “R” nomenclature, though, hasn’t diminished the credentials of the more diminutive Ninja. In fact, Kawasaki claims to have improved the 650’s performance while maintaining its user-friendliness.

2012 Triumph America - Video

Think of cruisers, and the usual suspects come to mind: Harley-Davidson, various offerings from Japan’s Big Four, Victory – in fact, nearly every OEM builds a bike to tap into the lucrative cruiser market.
Triumph, better known for its hooligan-making naked roadster Speed Triple or its GS-inspired big trailie Tiger, wasn’t a name that surfaced much in cruiser circles. But that changed in 2004 with the introduction of the Rocket III, powered by a monstrous 2,294 cc (140.0 cu in) inline-Triple.

Frasers Hill, Malaysia

This is the tight and twisty access road to Frasers Hill. It is open only to one way traffic. At odd hours, the let traffic up the hill. During even hours, traffic comes down.

Aprilia SR Max 300 (2011 - current) - Video

There are a lot of good points about buying a maxi scooter like the SR Max. Fuel economy is one, simplicity is the other. There aren’t many full-licenced motorcyclists who would buy a scooter on these benefits alone because of the image they portray of being ‘a ladies bike’. Maybe this is why Aprilia has wound up the ‘sport-styling’ knob to full for the SR Max and turned an ordinary scooter into a man’s scooter.

Suzuki GSX-R750 (2011-current) - Video

After years of gentle evolution Suzuki has gone to town on its 2011 GSX-R750. Weighing in at 190kg, fully-fuelled and ready to go, it’s a massive 8kg lighter than the old model, giving the 148bhp GSX-R750 a mouth-watering power-to-weight ratio.
The 750’s rolling chassis and bodywork is completely new, but it doesn’t get the GSX-R600’s radical engine overhaul and the resulting 1kg extra weight reduction.

2012 Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra - Video

The Tri Glide™ Ultra Classic® is a full-feature, factory motorcycle built to confidently chase the horizon with long-haul comfort and freedom on three wheels. The Harley-Davidson® Trike platform brings original-equipment design, quality and service to the three-wheel motorcycle segment. Trike models utilize a frame and associated chassis structure and geometry engineered specifically to handle the loads generated by the steering forces and weight of a three-wheel vehicle.

Hi Mr. Dipstick (I love you) and all you Wannabe’s out there I’m “Dominator“...

a strange name you may think apparently this name was given to me by my mother,
who say’s she’s pretty sure I was conceived on the pillion seat of an old Norton dominator 88 mc in a far corner of the ace café car park on a cold foggy evening in London.

The bike in question had just achieved the magic ton 100 mph on the London north circular road and the riders prize was popping his cherry with my mum in a racing position on the Norton café racer whilst on it’s main stand.
