robblok Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Not insured.. I think your mate is into trouble.. Depending if the bike was new and what kind of bike the price could be genuine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorSucker Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Normally no insurance on rental bikes. Really, do vechicles not need insurance? Traffic insurance is compulsory, but many rentals don't even have that. (check the sticker) It only cover medical costs up to 15.000 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundman Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 If your friend lost it, unless he actually signed on for some insurance, I think he has to pay for it. If it was a scooter 46K sounds like the price for a new one. Find out how old it was, and from there you should be able to work out a fair second hand value.
