canthai55 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Google search will show there are no dealers in Thailand. As it is not possible to register a used bike imported into Thailand, your friend is SOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canthai55 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 No Official Dealer. Grey market dealers for anything. Good luck trying to get a green book for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard-BKK Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) For Thailand the official distributor is Kunka Corp... and they can be registered without much problems... You can call DELETED PM for details Edited August 14, 2016 by seedy FONE NUMBER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canthai55 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Thanks for the info. No LOS dealer shows on CanAm website, hence my assumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 As much as I like the design of the Spyder, the wide stance would put me off buying one for zipping around town. Back home where lane splitting is illegal (and enforced), the Spyder looks great. Here in Thailand (especially BKK) where lane splitting is the only way to beat the horrendous traffic in the city, I'd go for air conditioning and seat belts or a 2 wheeler. Not the worst of both worlds- the crazy dangerous nature of a scooter, the sun beating down on an un-air conditioned ride, and still too wide to split lanes- resulting in sucking diesel fumes all the time in the city. If you live in the boondocks, go for it. And please post back how you like your ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moose7117 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 there is a large kiwi chap in pattaya who has one that has been fitted with hand controls, due to the him being crippled. he rips around on it , admittedly mainly up-country and he loves it. Personally i am not a fan as the traction control seems to remove all the drifting ability. If i could fit one with a turbo charged hayabusa motor then it would be a must have .

denkiblue555 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I know a few people who ride them in Oz - all very positive reports. It is quite different to riding a motorcycle from what they say - fantastic cornering and braking though. You just have to get used to not counter steering!

momtaz Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Thanks for all the replies guys, first of all to repeat, I am asking about this for my friend, myself, I never and will never think to buy a such design, I got 2 wheels bike, and 4 wheels vehicle, fit for my usage, Now, I just searched for Kunka as mentioned in above, their website under warning by antivirus telling me could : Warning - visiting this website may harm your computer! ----------------------------- As the guy he is going to send it to his home country, not to use it in Thailand, if any recommended place to have a look , will be appreciated, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denkiblue555 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) What is your friend's home country? I'm not sure but I thought Polaris distributed them worldwide in many markets - I don't imagine it would make a lot of financial sense to export a vehicle from Thailand which had originally been produced outside LOS and had the 'happy Thai tax' added to it when imported here? EDIT: Not Polaris but Bombardier/BRP (Sea-doo, Ski-Doo etc.) Edited August 18, 2016 by denkiblue555 Correction for Polaris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard-BKK Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) I doubt that Thailand is the best International location to buy a Can-Am Spyder for export… I’m pretty sure that the Can-Am Spyder’s sold in Thailand are probably the most expensive location to buy one…. The Can-Am Spyder is manufactured in Valcourt, Quebec, Canada and it’s probably best you contact them for any international export order….

I think you will find that it is a little bit more than a scooter. http://www.brp.ca/content/canam-spyder/en_CA/2017-models/sport-cruising/spyder-f3-s-daytona-500.html From the Canadian website specs for the Spyder F3-5 Daytona edition.
