SAFETY FIRST Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 This bike looks like a lot of fun, for rides down to the beach, picking up a six pack of beer from the bottle shop, cruising down Soi 6 etc. Does anyone know where I can buy this electric bike with a Green Book? Lots for sale on lazada, Shopee, Amazon but none with green book. 2000 - 3000W ideal, lots of grunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Friend of mine bought one from Lazada 24,000 bht you don't get a green book. They cannot be registered yet in Thailand. Just ride it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowtail Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 There's a fair sized shop in Salaya (across from Mahidol) that sells a bunch of e-bikes & trikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieH Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I believe they are classed as "toys" not road legal and cannot be registered as such. Definitely on the increase from what I havr observed locally. Plenty of 3 wheeler invalid style trikes around too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you think your going to look cool on one of the bikes in your first post? That's hilarious. In any event, they had many colors and styles inside the building but most did not come out trying to take a picture though the glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're riding a Superbike there is no cool factor. But I wouldn't be caught dead on this Nerdy bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason, you continue to focus on the pink bike rather than any of the others in the photos, why is that? In any event, I think a guy riding something that's trying to look like something it's not looks much sillier than a guy riding something that looks like what it is, but that's just me. It's your money, buy what you want. Hey, maybe once you get it you can mount a big plastic V-twin in the frame and have a speaker with really loud engine noise playing when meet up with your mates at the tavern. With a bike like that (and a pocket full of money) you'll have those bar-girls fighting to clime on behind you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been like that for over 20 years as far as I know. My CB400SF with its green book from a 100cc Wave and number plate was CTPL insured. ????????
