Vietnam motorbike- where to buy?

Hi there

Im in Hoi An now and planning to travel by motorbike. does anyone sell a motorbike nearby and any suggestions where to buy? I've heard it should be easy to buy from other backpackers, but no one has.

Please let me know soon as possible

Everyone in Hoi An knows everybody else. Ask any local -- shopkeeper, hotel clerk, or just person on the street -- if he knows someone who has a bike for sale. I did that in 2010 and it took me 15 minutes to locate a Minsk.

You can try the local bike shops that have the sign, xe ban,They will rip you off so its better to take a local with you.

go see Steve at the Sleepy gecko bar, across the bridge next to the market, the car bridge that is, then up a bit to the 1st lane on the right , the bar is at the end of the lane way
