The time has come to buy my own motorcycle in Chiang Mai Thailand. After 2 and a half years riding a bicycle, I really needed to get that motorbike to move forward with my Thailand journey. Chiang Mai has many used motorcycle shops and markets around the city, with Ruamchok used motorcycle market being one of the most popular and biggest, with many motorbikes for sale. I wanted to stay with a Honda Click but I was also interested in the Yamaha Aerox. I had my money ready and was looking at buying it today! Did I purchase a bike?

Wayne, I rented an Aerox 155 from Mango in January for the Mae Hong Son loop and a loop around the Golden Triangle. It was a great bike and felt way more stable than the 125s I rented when I was between 70-100 kph. Thanks for the recommendation on the rental shop, I made sure to give you a shoutout to the owner

@thomaselliott573 2 года назад

Two points of caution re buying bikes - the kilometres are routinely wound back at dealers and a lot of the people selling bikes at Ruamchok are actually dealers. Also, it is far more difficult to sell a bike then buy one in Thailand. However, you are still better of owning one both financially and for your safety.

@WalkAboutWayne 2 года назад

That's right Thomas, alot of dealers here do put the mileage back, i've heard some storys about Ruamchok. Some good dealers there also though. I was lucky with my bike i think. Thanks.

I will be going riding in Thailand for 14 days. I want to rent a Honda 500, I am an experience rider. Will ride the loop and all over, is this bike to big, font forget all my luggage of 3 weeks will be strap on the bike.

@thomaselliott573 Год назад

@@adv67 They are a bike devoid of character, so if you don't mind never falling in love with them they would easily handle the job for one rider. It would be too small for 2 people. You will need at least a rack for your gear.

A whole family of seven was wiped out by a drunk in Las Vegas. So not just Thailand. But great you got the bike.

@WalkAboutWayne 2 года назад

When you transfer ownership of the bike, they make you pay for Tax and Insurance. The insurance they give you doesn't cover much, but at least it's insurance. I go over some of this in my next vlog mate. Tragic story about Nevada , hopefully i won't see anything like that. I always make sure i look both ways TWICE! .

"Wayne has his Happy Mushrooms and nearly decides to buy a bike, cause he loves the colour of it haha". The click is fine for 150km rides man. No worries. Must say the PCX drives a bit more relaxed if you go faster, say 70 to 80 km an hour. Congratz with the bike man!

@WalkAboutWayne 2 года назад

Color is the main thing for me mate, i've got to look at it, if i like the color i move onto engine and how it runs. The PCX and AEROX look cool . Thanks buddy.

@AVRO filmvideo just got my wife a Vespa 150S it’s in a different league for comfort, stability just everything really. Birthday treat for her, but it rides like a dream….I’m a car man but I will drive this Vespa…..Wayne should have had a word with me, got a Honda click 125cc that I would have let him have at a silly price as a favour. Mai pen rai….

@WalkAboutWayne 2 года назад

Awwww man, now he tells me 😂😂. Should have let me know mate. What year and color?

Don't go used with the price of new ones it's a no brainer so far we bought a new one every 18 months or 2 years and we couldn't be happier I love the fresh engine etc and our old ones I have always got top dollar for them because we take care of them and you can tell. My 2cents

Really have no idea which brand i have to choose …..bro could i ask why you looking honda click ?

@WalkAboutWayne Год назад

Click is great for the city, the best at carrying shopping, one of the easiest and cheapest to repair. Every mechanic will have parts. Fuel consumption is excellent. But after all that, I wish I got a Yamaha Aerox 🤣🤣

@beverlyweber4122 2 года назад

Good thing about Thailand is the cost for repair of a motorbike is just so damned cheap compared with the west. So unless you buy a real lemon, you got a good deal.

@WalkAboutWayne 2 года назад

So true, repairs and fuel is so cheap. I filled the tank on 120 Baht and the service at Honda was 420 Baht. It's incredible really.

@@WalkAboutWayne I really like those bigger scooters, the ones that look like you can carry 2 comfortably. I guess I'll need to up my budget and does the scooter license cover the bigger engines?

@WalkAboutWayne 11 месяцев назад

@dave3k Yes you might want to add a bit more if you want a pcx or Nmax. I wouldn't go much older than 2019. Bike licence covers all bike sizes here 👍
