Long time visitors to Samui, just back after 3 years away. Is 2500THB a good price for a monthly rental for a bike. Just a 100cc. The guy said he doesn't need my passport, just a 2000THB deposit. Been out of the loop, is that a fair deal?

That's approximatley 83 THB per day, or 2 British Pounds or 3 US Dollars PER DAY.

I think it's a rip off, don't go nowhere near that deal, it's not fair in the slightest.

yes it is a rip off. for the leasee. there again u pay more u get more. for a brand new click looking about 4500 per month. thats automatic with good brakes. 2500 is very good for u. specially if he only want 2 k deposit. looks like u have liscence to go radio rental :)

correct, seems like a "1 day rental" (rent and stolen)

yep as they say if a deal sounds too good to be true it normally is. u might get nicked. i mean sounds funny what gurantee does the leasee have if the bike gets stolen that u will pay him back with a 2000 baht deposit. unless maybe it is already stolen. i dunno maybe it is sound but be care ful. does in have a number plate ?

Thanks guys (and for the sarcasm). Just wasn't sure what the going rate was these days. US$75 per months is very good when I looked at it that way.

I went with this guy for 2500THB. A few guys staying near me recommended him and have been renting off him for a long time. He said he will also change the oil every month or just swap the bike over. So good deal all round. Thanks for the feedback though.
