ll2 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 check the engine and chassis numbers and see if they are the same in the greenbook. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsamui Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I bought one about a year ago and have been very pleased with it. They are quite hard to find and don't come up very often, thus spares are not so easy. Having said that my local bike shop had no trouble getting a new pair of sprockets (+chain) - not too pricey at 2,000B fitted. Apart from the engine I believe that the bike is the same as the 800cc Marauder, which is a lot more common. If you can't get parts then there are many places in the USA, but you will pay 20%+7% duties. I think the price is high - I'll PM you where there are several for sale (invoice) from 50K - 66K. ps - they customise nicely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanB Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Nice looking bikes, nice to see something a little different, keep us updated. I think a 400cc is a good option for Thailand, especially a liquid cooled V-twin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
