ConnectionNotGuaranteed Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Hi all. Looking at buying a second hand scooter and would like to know how to change the names in the book from the current owner to mine ( or my wife). In particular, I have seen a bike and discussed with the seller over FB messenger. Done a live video call and it ticks all the boxes but it's in Korat so I want him to ship it and I'll pay on delivery. He's agreed to this but I just want to know what needs to be done. Does he just send the book with the bike and that bit from his end or is there something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 There is also a transfer document that he will need to fill in - pass it to you and you fill in your details as the new owner. Send the book and document separately to the bike. I was told to never leave the book with the bike! As far as I remember, that is all that it needs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVENKEEL Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 That's a tricky deal, handing over money before you even know if all is good. Make sure the ID numbers on bike match the book. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Is it such a special model/deal of a scooter? Otherwise I would surely look for at a local 2nd hand dealer(shop) where you can check before pay and get assistance with registering. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bike isn't my concern I just want to make sure he has the correct documentation and signs in the right place so I can change the title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had all the paperwork ready for me. Copies of his DL as well. Perhaps go to your local inspection station and have them show you necessary paperwork and places to sign. Perhaps you could take delivery at the inspection station so paperwork can be reviewed before you pay. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
