Big bike 1st class insurance - first year I payed 14k baht + compulsory insurance. Switched to Roojai then - probably half the price what you would pay for with other insurance companies.
Everything is done online via the Roojai mobile app -even the first bike inspection via mobil app cam.
Not sure if you can insure it without having the proper license plate first though.
You left out where you want to retire? Not all immigration offices ask the same and who quoted you 30.000 baht for the visa conversion to Non O and retirement ? It should be roughly

that price.
So having turned 50 I arrived on 30 day visa exempt stamp - was told by my agency (Best Friend Visa in Chiang Mai) to have at least 3 weeks left on my stamp - put the 800k into a fixed savings account went to my agency in Chiang Mai paid 14.900 Baht the first time and they took care of everything - change from visa exempt stamp to non immigrant O - and then finally the retirement extension - done. Only 2 short visits to the agency and immigration to have my picture taken.
You also need a TM30 which you should have anyway from your landlord or hotel where you are staying.
Yearly extension now for 5200 Baht - one short visit to the bank to get bank letter and update bank book - visit to agency hand over everything and meet next day at immigration to take picture and pick up passport with 1 year extension - done for another year .
