I have yet to see any such shops here but i guess i have never looked around. If you're looking for imported bikes then forget it because people will rip you off.

try 1A HIRE RENT, RENTAL OF ROYAL ENFIELD MOTORCYCLE MUMBAI & KOLKATA, INDIA. EXPORT RESTORED ENFIELDS, LAMBRETTA & VESPA. they do offer rentals.

This thread has been dead for quite some time but I am facing the same situation this year in Mumbai. I've written to the indiabikes people. Are there any other alternatives for royal enfield rentals in Mumbai (preferably for 4 days)?

While there are plenty of car rental outlets, I have never heard of the same for Motorbikes. I assume the public transport system is the reason for such a market not sprouting up.

The closest option I can think of is to find a mechanic / garage near you and ask for the possibility of renting a bike, albeit this would be dubious and possibly illegal.

Does anyone have experience of the 1A rental agency mentioned above?

Anybody had any luck? i am planning to come to Mumbai next week for a span of two weeks. Would like to hire a bike for a couple of days to go around the city. Anything half decent with 2 wheels and in running condition. Though I would not mind a Bullet.

Really difficult to get a bike on rent in Mumbai. Its better if you borrow it from a friend.

I searched and planned for two months this year and still couldn't find any bike for rent, not even a karizma

I know this is an old topic, but it doesn't seem to have any solid answers.
It was hard, but I managed to find this one place that rents out Royal Enfields
Enfield Riders
They're pretty expensive, at Rs. 1,200 for a 350cc bike, and Rs. 1,500 for a 500cc, but I've heard they maintain their vehicles well

Guys one a slightly different note, do you know of any good second hand dealers of SBKs in India. Genuine SBKs only not those assembled locally using smuggled parts to evade taxes.
