I brought a honda 125 to pattaya a few years ago and just don't use it enough. how do i get it home to chiang mai. i leave pattaya on 7 so i have to act fast

You can post it from the post office, no kidding.

Thai postal ship bikes ,think about 900 baht

You have a few options.

Thai Post 1900, from Si Sa Ket to Pattaya and can take up to 10 days.

Nahkhon Chai Air, must be empty of fuel. Sri Sa Ket to Pattaya, overnight or when the bus gets in and you need to let them know in advance, my missus sorted this out and I think she paid about 800-1500.

Train, a friend of mine does it from Si Sa Ket to Bangkok and then to Chiang Mai, not sure on the pricing but, advance booking is required.

Sent one to Udon on the bus - they tie it down in the cargo area

If you can get it to Hua Lam Pong train station in Bangkok, you can send it by train. They will put in the goods carriage where the guard has his seat. Considerably cheaper than putting it on the bus

Curious if the bikes get banged up transporting them like this?

Do they box them?

Mine turned up with no dents or scrapes, that was using Nahkonchai Air.

Post Office is the easiest. Probably more than the 900/1900 being quoted. In my experience pretty efficient

So the gas tank has to be empty?

I used post office twice Pattaya to Udon 3000 baht and Phuket to Pattaya 3000 baht. Bubble wrapped all ok no gas in tank so take it low and they probably drain it as none at when arrived in Pattaya, bike would not start but they had some in a bottle got me to nearest Gas station. Tracking on line.

PCX 150 so 125 maybe cheaper.
