Gentlemen,
Set me straight. After about 8 hrs of pulling my hair out trying to learn what bikes are available (for purchase) in Thailand, cc rules and limits, importing nightmares, etc...... I think I just need to ask those that are over there a direct question.
1. Are there any cc limitations or extra taxes on big cc bikes?
2. have decided on a BMW G650GS or Kawasaki KLR 650. Are both or either of those bikes available (new) in Thailand?
3. If not, can you go to the dealer and order ANY bike you want, or are the Thai limitations on this?
4. Can some of these problems be circumnavigated by buying in Laos or Vietnam?
5. Any other info you deem worthy now that you see where i am trying to get.
Cheers,
Scott T (about to retire U.S. airline pilot)
