If I am very lucky and can find a Lifan dealer in Thailand that has one...
I would see if I could take it for a test ride.... They see westeners as walking ATMs...

I am flying back on the 29th march next year for 3 months... longest I can stay
on my tourist visa... I have to go to Bangkok to the NZ Embassy to get a stamp on a form
to set up a Thai bank account.... Hopefully there is a Lifan dealer in Bangkok somewhere...

I am thinking of buying a used Yamaha Mio125 scooter in Khon Kaen… better than hiring one
for 3 months.. and then I don't need all the forms from the hire company to take it out of Thailand..

The 125 Mio I hired last time...
