hey im gong to be flyign down to orlando florida november 7th and i was just wondering if anyone knew of a sportbike shop that rents them out. I would like to rent a bike for a day or so while im down there. i tried googling places but i didnt come up with anything,
I don't know off hand of a sportbike shop that will rent you one. The HD places will rent Buells though. I've talked to a couple of people that have thrashed blasts around and had fun.
It's not cheap IIRC, and you'll definitely pay for any and all damage incurred. ;)
I'll save this thread and let you know if I hear of a decent shop that will rent something more fun.
Any particular bike you had in mind ?
Ditto to the Harley place. If you are in the Disney area there is one @ Old Town on 192. I'm not sure if my dealer does. I'll be on the look out.

Hi. I live in orlando. The sport bike shop I USED to go to (but they rip you off so I don't go there anymore) might rent bikes.

No chance for your bro. IIRC 21+ with M endorsement, insurance, and a credit card will be the cost of admission. If you find a place to RENT an R6 for one day, for less than $500, let me know ;) cause they won't be in business for long, and I want my run on one of them !
Seriously , you can have a blast on a couple of scooters. Scooters + two or more guys willing to get arrested for some quality fun = a freaking blast.
Make sure you get one with shot tires and take pictures of the bikes before the rent ;)
hey ohgood, check out this link, im not sure how legit this place is down in orlando, but there rates look pretty damn good.

Dude, if they're legit, rent the 999r!!!!! :icon_twisted: Hell I might make a trip to orlando just to do that :cookoo:
Scooters, yeah you can have a shaZam! ton of fun on those. A few years back, myself and a few friends went down to daytona and rented some cash because 2 of our group were under 18. We had to put down $200 deposit on each but we pretty much dogged em out and still got our deposit back. :thumb:

Dude, there is a KTM SuperMOTO 950 for $140/day. I'd be all over that. Pack some cash to pay off the LEO's though, that's a stuntn machine !
