Honda Gyro

[tmaker]

looking for one for my missus... easier and safer as there are too many DOGS here and also 'reckless' drivers/riders. so it'll be easier for her , no need to balance a 2 wheel bike.

They are used in bangkok but i see it less and less over the years.

You can also consider a brand new yamaha tricity with three wheels.

Do not see it on the Thailand Honda Website

How much are they?

[tmaker]

saw a few . range between 15,000 to 25,000... but can't find the link now.

still around...

I've only seen 2 or 3 in the last 5 years and 10,000 km of BKK riding.

Maybe Mocyc classifieds.

I have seen a conversion of Wave like bikes to a solid rear axle with 2 wheels in back.

This might be a more modern and reliable approach.

Can you even register one in Thailand? I thought the only 3-wheelers that were registrable were commercial tuk-tuks operated by Thais.

I'm asking out of curiosity, cuz medically I'm not able to ride my Kawa 650 any more (sold it) and can't ride a scooter, and I hate driving the pickup.

I saw a second hand Gyro for sale at PhiChit Yamaha dealer about 15 months ago. Give em a call, they may still have it!

No you can't.

Disabled persons are normally allowed to have a converted bike (into 3 wheels) registered in their own name.

For you with a medical condition, I don't know to be honest but you should make further checks and see if it's possible.

tmaker and guzzi850m2, thanks to both of you for your responses. I shall continue my quest! my local LTO is clueless about how to arrange for a disability placard, so i'll have to ramp it up a notch.

Not quite correct 50cc and below are NOT legal to register tax etc BUT some municipal (towns) allow them, usually university towns. And they are only for use within the municipal boundary.

The 2-wheels-in-back scooter trikes are pretty easy to tip over.

2WIB ATVs (trikes) have been banned in USA for many years.

Operate with care & helmet.

I see 2-wheels-in-front conversions & 4-wheel ATVs on the streets.

Getting a Dr.'s note should be easy.
