Lance you can get motorcycles for rent from Delhi, Manali and Leh.
Renting from Delhi should give you time to get familiarize with the bike before you start riding in hills. Delhi also has a wide variety of renters to choose from, it could be good or bad depending on how you see it.
Renting from Manali would ensure that you wouldn't have to ride in the hot plains, but you would have to come back via Manali route to return the bike, else take a detour in case you return from the Srinagar route, in order to return the bike.
You can also rent a motorcycle in Leh, this would enable you to reach Leh with ease, however you will miss out the fun of riding on the Manali - Leh highway, which according to me is the major attraction of going to Ladakh.
Rates would be almost the same no matter where you get the bike from (Rs. 450/per day onward) here is some more info that you might want to check out Renting Motorcycles in India
