WANTED : 3/4 WHEELER PETROL SCOOTER/MOTORBIKE

Post by Bruce »

Does any member out there know where I can buy a 3 /4 wheeler scooter/motorbike in Thailand at all?

All I have found is a copy of a 3 wheeler in China named AON brand [was Piaggio MP3] but cannot service over here so will not buy.
My Thai wife needs to be independent but has no balance/confidence so any help would be greatly received !

There is/was a 'mobility' type shop opposite the Hua Hin Municipal Hospital.

There is a shop called something like 'Big Boy Toy' on the southbound carriageway of Highway 4 where the Cha-Am/Hua Hin bypass splits off to go to Cha-Am.

It is about half way to Pranbury on the right. Hugh building. Name is "4 Wheeler..." These are the 4 Wheel ATV Vehicles." Not sure if that is what you are looking for. Those are the best directions I can give. Good luck.

To all members who've kindly responded I found out today from 3/4 wheeler dealer 2k outside Cha Am on RHS going towards BKK that there are NO 3 or 4 wheeler PETROL scooters/vehicles except 1 make of 4 wheel off road buggy- all others in all of Thailand are electric -so there's a Marketing opportunity if ever I saw one !
Now trying to persude the wife to accept an electric 3/4 wheeler scooter but I boughtt her one before & it just ran out of battery power all the time so sent it back -that was 9 yrs ago & the dealer I spoke to today who was intelligent & spoke excellent English re-confirmed 50km is max limit before re-charging .Whatever happened to progress ?!
Once again many thanks for members help but this subject is now frustratingly closed .

Strangely enough, I saw one today (for the first time) in Nakhon Pathom. The guy was selling lottery tickets, and was paralysed down one side. It was a normal Honda Wave that had been, by the looks of it, professionally adapted to accommodate two wheels at the back. How about checking out equipment for disabled people?

Look at the bicycle shop just before you get to the Esso filling station in the center of Hua-Hin. Heading south, you'll see the shop on your left. They sell 50cc three wheelers - no road take required. They also often have one or two secondhand ones for sale as well.

Yes they are called the Honda Giro ( giro X) B 32,000 new

But I'd recommend a rest drive first as they are ' unusual' to drive
Enjoying 'Retirement'....So many jobs to do, I don't know how I ever had time to work!
