Anyone familiar with inspection, transferring ownership, insurance etc?

 

 

Going to get a cheap bike soon in the 6-10k range, maybe off fb marketplace, and want a smooth quick process.

 

My understanding is, I pay cash, get a power of attorney letter, copy of ID, blue book and keys from seller, take the bike for inspection, then bring bike to (chatuchak) DLT, with my CoR, copy of visa + passport?

then I buy insurance after?

 


 

How long until I have plates etc? Should I/can I use a title transfer service? 
 

My CoR expires on monday.. today its friday morning. If I buy a bike today or this weekend, can I bring everything in on monday and have everything done same day? Can I drive bike around while waiting?
 

Anything I should look out for as far as scams/fake paperwork?

 

in Canada, we just need seller signature and the registration paper. Go to insurance office any day of week and it takes 20 min. Not like thailand

Don't worry about CoR or DLT.

 

A bike worth around 6k won't be roadworthy and probably won't have plates or come with green book.

theres lots on facebook marketplace under 10k that say they have the book/papers. Blue? Or green? Not really sure 

 

long as the brakes and lights work, not completely clapped out, should be ok? I used to do inspections back home, just on transport trucks not bikes. Anything minor I think the shop can fix quickly during inspect. 

 

 

Kind of looking for helpful answers here but thanks..

Can you provide a link. 

 

Any bike of mine that has lost so much ino value goes straight to the village (Isaan).

Unroadworthy, gets reincarnated, delegated for farm work.  

 

Anyway, back to the transfer.....after your inspection, go with the owner and bike to the authorised inspection station, they can do the transfer and they will send the green book to DLT for book update. 

You won't need power of attorney and don't need to go to the DLT if inconvenient. You can ride the bike once you pay the owner.
