bike licence

i'm trying to get some information on a thai bike licence. I want to ride a bike bigger than 125cc but don't hold a uk bike licence, had a few run ins with the boys in brown in april who seemed to know that i couldn't ride a 500cc on a uk car licence.......after getting stopped 3 times and loads of bullshit i swopped it for a 125. I have been told i can just do a thai test and get a 1 year licence, is this true?
I have an address in phuket if that is an issue.
cheers

You 'might' be able to get an IDP in the uk marked with motorbikes even if you dont have a bike license (they did to me once).. With an IDP you can convert it into a Thai license for a small fee and an eyetest..
