Igetby Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) Maybe I am being somewhat naive in expecting a Thai motor cycle shop to quote the manufacturers price for a Yamaha Grand Filano Classico. Yamaha in Bangkok say basic price is 52,000 baht. However Shops in Khon Kaen and Pattaya are quoting anything from 54,000 to 56,000 baht plus the add-ons. Is it a case of TIT?

ktm jeff Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 They may be including registration - an extra cost . Show them the brochure and see what they say. May be a case of supply and demand. Can you negotiate a deal with any add-ons you require. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Actually the base price for the Classico is 51,500THB https://www.yamaha-motor.co.th/commuter/grand-filano/overview But a shop can of course sell it for whatever price they want, so try to negotiate with them or look around if anybody is selling it for the base price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poanoi Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 the value of the bike drops 20% on the day you take it from the shop, its better to buy 2nd hand IMO. i saw a filano below 20k for sale, big problem is you need to be pygmy size to fit on it, actually the only bike i can sit on without discomfort is forza, but that one too need a handle bar extension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they weighed about the same too.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
