For anyone interested, Britbikes have a second hand R3 classic for sale in their Bangkok showroom.

"I went to the registration people last week.

They told me to bring the bike in for inspection, which I did today.

I also got an insurance cover note from E_InsureThailand.com for compulsory insurance, cost 655 Baht. Tony Dabbs was very helpful and he is now getting me a quote for fully comprehensive insurance.

I handed over the papers and after an hour or so and the sum of 315 Baht I received my number plate and tax!

The green book will be available in a month.

So apart from the high Customs duty and the jumping through hoops to get an import permit the rest is easy!"

So where is the office for inspection and registration? I have a bike I want to get registered. You didn't have to pay the high fees that we often hear about?
