Rent a Bike

[tigerpaper]

Hi guys, i know it's strange but i still need to ask for help any way. I'm looking for a bike to use for about 2 months. Wondering if you know of any shop that rent bikes. What kind of bikes can I rent for 300$/month? Thanks.

Yes. ... There is such a thing. There is a shop near Beng Wan Road that I forgot the name. Another way is to see if anyone is putting their bike for COI. Then come up with an agreement where you rent the bike from them for 2 months. $300/month should be enough to cover for a 2B bike at least.

Thanks ashzibit. I'm not very familiar with the system here. How can i find somebody putting his bike for COI?

 

Guys, if you know any shops do rent bike, please let me know. What about buying a used bike and selling it back after 2 months? I kinda like the idea, but not sure about the hassle of paperworks involved. Whether it's worthwhile doing it that.

unless u r beri rich.

no lor. Just a thought only. I dont know how much the cost of transaction. I thought reselling a USED bike a few hundred cheaper after 2 months is ok lar. Or isnt' it?

What kind of bike are you actually looking for? 2B, 2A?

2A preferably. For example, A HONDA HORNET 250.

 

I'm not very particular about one type of bike. After all, i won't keep it for long. As long as it's in good condition, looks cool, and the shop is trustworthy. The price can be discussed between me and owner, depending on make, type and condition.

Any advice guys?

2 mths.. Seller here wont wan to rent for 2 mth dan take back.. If they rent it, 2mths time they take back what they wanna do with it? Reason why they post their bike for sale is either they wanna upgrade/downgrade or they quit riding.. But no harm trying to ask if u happen to see any of their put their bike up for COI.. Ban hock hin at Defu lane 10 there shd have renting of bike service.. U can try call them or go down to see them..

 

Cheers..

Why not take a wave or x-1? Rent 2mths the insurance also cheaper.. petrol cheap and can travel far with not much maintence required.. 2A bike u rent 2 months the insurance also more ex.. might as well save the cash for other purposes.. Jus my 2cents worth of advise..

Thanks guys. I've called Ban Hock Hin. They only have CB 400, which is not the one i'm looking for.

 

If you guys have 2A-2B type sport bike, (i.e. CBR 150) that can be rented out, please contact me: 92335479.

 

Usage: mainly to and from work. No usage outside Singapore.

 

Thanks.
