De juro needed. The rental agreement clearly states: they are needed (specially learned). In fact, no one even asks them. They will probably be needed in case of an accident and other incidents. But even when I picked up the bike from the impound lot, no one, either in the police or in the parking lot itself, demanded a license.

You don't need a license to ride a bike, just like in our countries. In fact, there is an international agreement on vehicles that provides for all this. As for the car, you need a license, although they can be demanded from you only in the event of an accident. And so farang police do not slow down!

I do not quite agree with 99alex. It depends on what you mean by the word "bike". If a moped is up to 50 cm3, then yes, you don’t need a license, but what if it’s a normal bike with a volume of 1000 cm3? You will not be able to check its volume. But in fact, no one bothers about the rights

... If we are talking about a sports motorcycle, there is no dispute, for example, in the USSR the maximum volume was 350 cubes (Izhplanetasport and Chezet), 500 Java were given to the police in Karelia 3 pieces, no one survived ... in Thailand on bikes write 125 cubes, actually much less, barely pulls. For this reason, we rented a Suzuki Grand Vitara from the 80s with an automatic gearbox, the cost was $ 23 per day and we were happy!

I'm sorry - you really need the right :-))

brothers, I'm not a racer, I'm 60-70 kmh. would be enough (I'm 97kg wife 57kg. 125cc will be lucky at the same speed?
аватар haritonov
Yes, we are in the same weight category, brother! :-))
My weight is about 100 and my wife is 50, the speed of our moped was enough to maintain the average flow rate in the city. Probably Thai horses are more powerful than our Russians, otherwise I can’t explain how this little fellow calmly keeps 60-80 km / h.

what about rights?
аватар bychkov66
This question is killing me. And I don’t want to climb into the bottle and I have to go to change the rights. There is little time left.

I am 92 kg - my wife laughed for a long time when I made a circle near the hotel on a bike, she says that the bike was not visible at home!
аватар haritonov
Do not bother about the rights, you will ride with your head without getting into an accident - no one will even ask for them, and even more so on a moped. And, as it was correctly said above, the police do not touch farangs (tourists)

Thank you brothers for the info. A pallet of bricks fell from the heart. My wife and I are going for the first time. Kind of a mixed feeling. Thank you for forums and people who responded.

And finally: Be careful with parking!!! Evacuated very quickly! In addition to nerves (you must agree, it’s a shock, you come and there is no moped! The first thought is stolen!) You will also spend a lot of time “pulling out” from the fine parking lot + 1000 fine + taxi to the parking lot. In the best case, they lower the rear wheel and either push the moped to the nearest service, or ride on a flat one, and this is again a service and expenses, because. rubber "chews". So it is better to use paid parking.
