Hi All, first post here...

I had a visa-exempt stamp from a border run to Myanmar, extended by 30 days, expiring Jan 28. Planning then to do another border run, which would be my second consecutive but first in 2019. 

Then mid-feb will ride a motorcycle into Malaysia. While there my 30-day visa will expire (which I guess is irrelevant cos it's not multi-entry anyway). So I'll cross the border again, with Thai motorcycle registered in my name, second border crossing in 2019, and get a 30-day visa-exempt stamp at the time. Have I got that right? Or should I get a tourist visa in KL to be sure? Does the motorcycle have any bearing on the situation?

Answer summary

The user is seeking clarification on the validity of consecutive border runs to Thailand, specifically about obtaining a visa-exempt stamp after an upcoming border run from Myanmar and the implications of traveling with a motorcycle registered in Thailand while also considering a possible tourist visa in Malaysia for added security.
