My son will be in Chang Mai for at least 3 years and motor bikes are the form of transport any thoughts on brand or models?

Dru: I'm struggling to get funds together for my motorbike. Not because of money, but because of the ATM bottleneck
Herb: Can't pay by Debit Card?
Dru: I think I paid like $15 for decent exterior on my minibarn.
I don't know--Rick[co-worker] didn't make it sound like I could.
Herb: How much for motor bike?
Dru: New? $1000
Everyone, even Kiat, [{conservative}Local]is saying that I should get new--there can be unpleasant surprises at times otherwise
I think we'll go somewhere that has both old and new for sale
I could get one for $500, but it is seven years old
Herb: Listen to advice I'd say
What makers?
Dru: I think we are planning on a Honda Dream
Reliable, fairly inexpensive
It's not a facy one by any stretch, but a good one
They have Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha
Herb: Better than a Honda nightmare
Dru: I remember reading a tourists' guidebook talking about the dangers of driving motorbikes and shattered Dreams
Herb: BAd quote.
Makes me think of Burnell
Dru: :-(
Herb: BE careful
Dru: We are trying
:-|
Herb: no 'incidents' I take it?
Dru: Nope
And we wear helmets
Herb: Fast and Pray. NOT talking about motorbikes!!!
