Re: Second hand scooter: main criteria?
Tuk tuks seem to like Yamaha...higher % there. I read a poster say this was because the engines are bullet proof. Dunno if that is the true reason but they presumably don't have issue getting parts.

Just visit any Honda dealer in the KOW to proof yourself wrong.
Re: Second hand scooter: main criteria?
Just seen this topic, i tried everywhere i could think off for 3rd party insurance and theft and had no luck.
Im near on the same size described by the op, i drive a 2018 airblade and it suits me fine sizewise.
Regards ownership i believe until the end ofseptember you can go change a registration card into your name, there was an article in khmer times about it, i havent done so yet, but will look into it soon.

This is some of the best advice i have ever read.explorer wrote:I suggest negotiate, to get the best price you can. But the dealer needs to make a profit, and he probably wont tell you how much he paid for the bike. But he wont go to a price where he does not make a reasonable profit.clutchcargo wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 5:19 pm do any members know whether the asking prices at used moto dealerships are very negotiable?
I suggest, go with bikes that are well priced to start with. If the starting price is too high, you will be wasting your time.

I was in one two weeks ago. The cheapest Wave was $1600 and a new imported Cub was $4200.
Don’t listen to Chinese whispers.

I think it means a Khmer can take this option, due to a foreigner by the law can't register a second hand motorcycle in their name.Soriya wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:11 pm Just seen this topic, i tried everywhere i could think off for 3rd party insurance and theft and had no luck.

Always "hope" but never "expect".

A guy i know, european had a bike in a girls name, he was told by honda it was possible as long as the owner was contactable.AndyKK wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:49 pmI think it means a Khmer can take this option, due to a foreigner by the law can't register a second hand motorcycle in their name.Soriya wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:11 pm Just seen this topic, i tried everywhere i could think off for 3rd party insurance and theft and had no luck.

Re: Second hand scooter: main criteria?
He was asked for 500 by who? A fixer outside? I find it hard to believe that the ministry is asking for that amount - they have always seemed fair(ish) to me. It costs less than 100 (i think 60-70 to get a reg card in a foreign name. Unless he didn't have any of the required docs with him.Soriya wrote:A guy i know, european had a bike in a girls name, he was told by honda it was possible as long as the owner was contactable.AndyKK wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:49 pmI think it means a Khmer can take this option, due to a foreigner by the law can't register a second hand motorcycle in their name.Soriya wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:11 pm Just seen this topic, i tried everywhere i could think off for 3rd party insurance and theft and had no luck.

Re: Second hand scooter: main criteria?
Yes, that is obviously the loophole, you transfer the sale of your moto to the person you trust, then that person registers it in their own name, after that the person can sell it back too you, then you have a person (being the person you know) on the registration whom can be contacted.Soriya wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:51 pmA guy i know, european had a bike in a girls name, he was told by honda it was possible as long as the owner was contactable.AndyKK wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:49 pmI think it means a Khmer can take this option, due to a foreigner by the law can't register a second hand motorcycle in their name.Soriya wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 12:11 pm Just seen this topic, i tried everywhere i could think off for 3rd party insurance and theft and had no luck.
