Any Decent Motorbikes in this Country

Easy,takes time.You forget where your at is not where your from.Vietnam is as good to you as you are to it, be respectful.

Didn't you ask a similar question and has received plenty of satisfactory tips on another thread (https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.p … 34#3846995)?

What's up with the insult?

ETA:  If my comment doesn't make sense, it's because the OP removed her derogatory remark -- after at least two people have seen it.

Sure there is.. there is Kawasaki and Ducati.. also harleys but I would not consider them as decent... 😜

Honda XR.  Not too big for the city, and absolutely perfect everywhere else.  I bought one in January and just sold it after putting 30,000 km on it doing the whole country about 4 times top to bottom, and Cambodia and Laos too.  I am about to buy another.  If you want any info, just reach out.  I have used this same bike in Brazil, Europe, Canada.  With the roads in Viet Nam and if you want to get a little remote, I highly recommend this bike.  Good luck.

Depends on what size of  XR your riding.  I doubt you can get a Scott Summers XR into VN. 

Thats the truth!  The XR I just sold was just 125, with a Yoshi pipe to make it more fun.  In Canada I use the 230 (which is a CRF, basically an XR)  and in France and Brazil 150s.  My next bike in VN will be the 150.

For those curious, the Scott Summers XR

Large capacity motorbikes are available in Saigon. You need an over-170cc licence to legally ride them in VN. If you live outside Saigon, I suggest you go to Saigon, chose your bike, then order it through a local dealer where ever you live and register it in your province.  This avoids extra registration costs.  It costs a packet to first register in Saigon and then transfer the registration to your province.
