This falls in to the everything else category. Anyone recommend a business for getting lessons and license for a motorbike in Bangkok? I checked out Honda Safety but their classes in English for this type of thing are only offered in the Phuket and Chiang Mai locations. I have considered just going to Chiang Mai (since I love it there anyhow!) and take the classes and test. Thank you, everyone! Oh and ps- I am studying Thai so wish I could take the course at the Bangkok location but just not fluent enough yet. Thanks again ahead of time.

I have been into bikes for the last 40 years. Mostly street and some track. In BKK? Ehh.. mebbie after I lived there after a year or so. Elsewhere I have no problem but I constantly use hard earned skills to avoid accidents. One could be taught but I think Thailand just might be a harsh mistress to a noob. Stick to a car is my recommendation as well. Coincidence dentally a German fellow in the next bungalow has been stuck in Thailand for the last 6 months recovering from a nasty compound leg fracture from a a scooter crash.
