My neighbor seems to think so.

A Honda Blade with paperwork apparently.

I did see an automatic on display for 13K the other day.

I only want a disposable one, so it does sound tempting.

Push it to 20 and I'd agree,at least one that's legal and reliable.

You could of course buy one for 5,000

I saw a guy on facebook asking 10k for his 90's super cub, with manchester united stickers and a basket

for 10k, it's possible to get an old honda wave and similar.

Who in their right mind would buy a scooter for 10K baht??? It would be a junker.

I put my honda NSR 150 2 stroke with green book,tax and insurance up for sale for 13,000 baht all I got where tyre kickers and offers of 7000 baht so I decided to keep the bike.

I bought a 2007 Yamaha nouvo elegance a little over a year ago for 13,000 baht + transfer fee.

I have paid out about 1000 baht for 2 oil changes and one new battery over the course of time I have owned it.

Runs great and I have no reason to think it will not last a few more years to come.

Sure you can buy a bike for 10K.

Most new bikes are sold on finance with a relatively small deposit.

For many Thais even 10K in hard cash is a big ask.

Let a mechanic look at it to √ maybe, but

if it looks okay under the plastic and runs good,

gopher it.

AirBlades are good.

Great lines.

Very cheap to fix if something goes kaput.

Don't worry bout somebody stealing &c.

Happy shopping.

Post a pic if.

I bought a 1994 tzr150 back in 2007 for 20k baht, and the Thais said I over paid.

Honestly, such small amounts of money.

The old CBR 150's are bulletproof once you change the carb pin before it snaps and destroys the engine.

They can't be much more than 10k baht nowadays,.

Thanks guys, so 10-20K is legit.

I wouldn't actually mind learning how to fix one myself as a hobby, so are there any particular models it's better to do it with using YouTube videos?

I'm guessing one where everything isn't trapped inside the middle of the bike.

A Honda Dream or Wave would probably be the default choice.

Very simple and tough and excellent parts support from Honda at reasonable prices.

Yamaha make great bikes too but I cannot comment on parts support for them as I have not owned one in Thailand.

20k should see you get the pre-2011 CBR150.

Cheap and easy parts, highly reliable bullet-proof engine. Besides that one carb pin - change that every nownagain and you're good to go.

Go for a Yamaha Fino, they lose their value very quick.

I sold a 2009 nuovo for 9k last year, didnt look great but was mechanically sound, so yeah sure they are around, just got to hunt them out.

Claire?

Bought a Fino a few weeks back for 7k, 7 years old, speedo don't work, otherwise good.

Is there an auto alternative to manual?

Obviously a bit more $$$, but same kind of parts available/easy to learn to fix.

Bought my Honda Tena for 8000, but it was 9 years ago.

It had cost me a fair bit in repairs though

Pay a bit more is my advice.

Honda AirBlade or Yamaha Nouvo.

Love you long time, not cost too mutt.

Yes, I sold my seven year old Honda Wave with about 53.000 Ks on the clock for 10.000Bt.

Very reliable bike, never broke down.

Not necessary, depends a lot on how well it was looked after, however, I do think that most

Thais will not care too much about servicing etc.

Best if possible to buy a one owner bike from a Farang, far better chance of it being well looked after.

Nonsense. Just use a bit of common sense on who you buy it from.

I bought a repossessed step-through with 4,700 km and 10 months old, under warranty, for about half the new price. So you pay a bit more than 20 grand but get peace of mind and a known re-sale loss of perhaps 7 grand after a few years' use. Now that's a good deal IMHO.
