Allan, that is an 'Auto Rickshaw' not 'Tuk Tuk'.

it is called tuk tuk in Thailand but this version from Bajaj so being Indian, it is called auto rickshaw:)

It's irrelevant how fast they can go as they still wouldn't get around Bangkok any faster.

Early in the morning the traffic moves pretty fast in BKK, I was on a really old bus and that was really shifting, you had to be pretty damn quick getting on and off, or you had your legs cut off with the pneumatic doors.

I recon this thing would save you a few minutes...I'd pay.

This guy has a couple of other things too......

I like it.

Of course, I am the guy who put a sportster engine in a snowmobile !

Sorry don't understand.... Squeezing a 600cc engine into a Tuk Tuk...

Lots in Thailand many with the Daihatsu 550, 660 and 850 cc engines. is there many left with the old 2 cylinder 350 cc ??

Did see an advert somewhere not long ago, workshop in Bangkok upgrading Tuk Tuks to the 650 cc Turbo engines

it is not a tuk tuk but auto rickshaw actually. title of the thread is misleading a bit.

yes, tuk tuks here have high cc engines.
