TheShockMaster Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Hello, I'm currently living in Pattaya but I'm looking to ship a Honda PCX 150 scooter back to the UK in about 10 months time. Does anyone have any info on the logistics and costs involved in doing this? I'm not expecting the Scooter shipping to be a quick process but interested in finding out if anyone has done something like this before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercool Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Are you sure it is street legal in the UK ? Some single stroke bikes aren't but I am unsure of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black fox Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 i had a friend who shipped a bike to austalia about 20 yrs ago and he told me it turned into a nightmare he said he wouldnt do it again, but it was a long time ago and things might be better now .

paulchiangmai Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 The PCX 150 is sold in the UK so I do not believe you will have any problems getting your UK plates etc. In the past I have shipped a car from England to Australia and it was a nightmare getting it registered, the authourities put every obsticle in the way that they could think of. I have also shipped a car from Australia to England and everything couldn't have been easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raro Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 It could well be that the PCX in Thailand is different from the one sold in the UK. You better want to check that. You also want to know about possible import duties. As for shipping it, it is not really a problem, provided that the paperwork is in order. sent from my Android phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakename Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Is it right or left hand drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canopus1969 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Is it right or left hand drive? Don't get smart - everyone knows the UK drives on the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShockMaster Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 Is it right or left hand drive? Ah yes, another post reminding me why some people should be permanently banned from the Internet, never mind the Thai Visa forums. Thanks for your input. I'm sure your internet bandwidth appreciated your waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of a single stroke bike before ? What is it ? Yeah, I know of 2 stroke and 4 stroke engines, but a single stroke engine must be a newish local invention Sent from my GT-I9001 using Thaivisa Connect App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
