The reason I returned in the first place was because I rented a bike on a bit of an impulse.
So, at first, to choose a bike for return, then after I got my big license, to transfer, to choose an additional vehicle... You can't know anything in a short test ride... So I rode a lot of rental bikes.
I think there are a few missing, but here is the list. I was surprised to see how many cars I've driven.
I've also ridden a CB400F at a riding school and an NC700L at a driving school, so in total I've ridden over 40 different cars.
In the end, I switched from my first bike, a Ninja 400, to the same model, a Ninja 650, and then to a GSX-S1000, which I never rode, but... Riding so many different types of bikes has been a fun hobby for me, as I've been able to feel the differences in flavor between models, not just engine and body types.
Withdraw from the unlimited ride plan for now.
However, we now have two large motorcycles.
Now, you can rent a bike 10 times a year for 6,800 yen per month.Maigare ClubI'm a member of the Platinum Light Course, which is a very reasonable plan that costs only 10,000 yen per 24-hour rental, including the vehicle warranty, but on the other hand, there is a limit of two times per month that I can ride with this plan. But on the other hand, you can only ride twice a month with this plan. If you can't use grip heaters or electric heating equipment on your rental bike, you will have to rent it during the good season. This means that I will not be able to do my own bike touring during the high season....
When I only had a Ninja 650, it was fun to have a different bike once in a while... But now I don't need to rent a bike like this anymore... So I went to the contract store the other day....
I have cancelled my subscription plan.
However, I can still rent three more bikes before the cancellation date, and I can still rent as a regular member, so I will continue to rent bikes that I like from time to time.
Next time we'll rent in Hakone.
Also, the reason why I cancelled my subscription was because I saw his video.
The video shows a motoblogger who lives near you... A motoblogger called "I'm looking for a replacement for my bike (SUZUKI GRADIUS 400) when it's no longer available", and he was test riding various bikes for rent.
The one being used is a one-hour bike rental at Biker's Paradise Minami Hakone.
The current lineup isPublished hereThere are some bikes that I'm really interested in, and I think that if I spent an hour test riding a bike in the Hakone area, like the YouTuber is doing, I might be able to learn a lot about it.
I have a feeling that the GSX-S1000 is going to be a dedicated day-trip winding machine, so it's possible to rent one while visiting Hakone.
