Need recommendation for motorbike dealership

[zombie nights]

Can anyone recommend  in the Pattaya area a reputable dealership for the purchase of a 2nd hand motorbike. Something like Honda Click or Zoomer X.

I want a guarantee for at least 6 months on the roadworthiness (engine etc) of the bike.

Many thx for any input.

Yeah right,  as long as its running at purchase, it will run for years, get oil changed every 3 months or so

They might give you a 3 month "warranty" but mostly its up to the buyer to try not get a lemon
In any case it only costs a few thousand baht to have the engine totally stripped down defective parts replaced and rebuilt..
Some of the parts could be a bit expensive

Is that a manufacturers recommendation and is it really needed or dependant on mileage?

 

The reason I  ask is that (other than first 2 years)  the bike I am using for the last 7 years maybe gets oil changed once per year if that............

Now that is quite alright, as long as your mileage is not more that say...100 miles per year.

  Its cheap oil change, maybe 300 baht with filter.......do air filter too  ,check it anyhow, gas usage shoots up if blocked

Mityon has a wide range of 2nd hand bikes.

South Pattaya Road, approx. 2km from Sukhumvit on your left. 

 

Don't know about warranty, but they're quite willing to repair small issues. 

As soon as it's getting more expensive you'll have a dispute, but that's with any other dealer/shop.

I shopped around for this and was told no warranty on used bikes.

I ended up buying a new (Click) one much happier as the used ones all seemed a little road weary.

Clicks are OK  step through making a hell of a good difference, 125 cc, but just one rear spring,  may get one  when my second-hand bike, bought 6 years ago ,an Elegance,  bites the dust  60 odd thousand miles and still going strong, look after it though  oil changes etc

Yes it is good for me old fart and very reliable I like it a lot.  Anything with more power and I would probably kill myself. Got my first oil change coming up thanks so need to stay on top of that.
