Motorcycle rental in Melbourne,Australia
I wanted to take a motorcycle trip to Australia with my wife this April. For 2-4 weeks it would be easier and cheaper to rent,not ship a bike. I saw Garners site in Melbourne. It looked good with many rental choices. It seems to be a large dealership. It looked like it would cost me $2500-4000 to rent. I sent an email to rentals@garnersmotorcycles.com.au. The only email address shown on there site. I had specific questions I wanted answers to. After 4-5 days without a response I sent another email.. Finally I got some answers. So,the next day I had several more questions. Now it's been 2 weeks and no response.
I think I've given up on going to Australia.I was borderline on going half way around the world to tour anyway. If I have this much trouble trying to rent a bike, how much trouble would I have with any mechanical problems. |

Buy one !
Looking at rental prices, deposits and the inevitable extras :eek3:
At over $800 per week for 4 weeks is $3200 not to mention the extras. I think you are better off buying one, if you cant find something cheap and reliable in the link below your not trying hard enough. Melbourne Region, VIC | Motorcycles | Gumtree Australia Free Local Classifieds | Page 1 Selling it ought not be that hard and if it doesn't sell wander into the nearest pub find the best looking girl you can (or guy depends on which team you're batting for) and just hand over the keys, (been there done that) you'd be surprised how well this will go down! And it would still be cheaper than hiring a bike! |
My trip is off for at least a year. My wife is having back problems that will require surgery. I guess it will give me time to do better research.
