Santiago Rentals and Service
I just finished a two month ride with my wife from Santiago to Ushuaia and back to Santiago. We shipped our bikes down, but on the very first day her bike quit running with an electrical issue. Being a thirty five year old 1981 R80GS we could not find any parts available. So we returned to Santiago to the firm known as Ride-Chile.com after speaking to Tomas Karstegl we said to bring her bike to their location where they would store her bike and we could rent one of theirs in order to continue our trip and stay on track with our itinerary. We arrived back in Santiago late afternoon with broken down bike, filled out paperwork for rental. Then by the following day they had serviced their F700GS bike with new tires, new chain & sprockets, oil change and new filter. We were off by mid afternoon. They bent over backwards to do anything we needed. You could not find any better service from someone on such short notice. They also run Moto Service Santiago and can service most late model middle to large adventure bikes. I highly recommend Tomas and his partner Mick for any help involving motorcycles you might require while in Chile. They also can arrange tours for group travel.
