No. Definitely not here.
Abroad, its easier/cheaper to own than rent.

I don't think there are any SBK's for rent in B'lore. I doubt if anyone will do that.....

90% of the SBKs being illegal ones, i dont think any one will give them out on rent. plus the fact you will have to shell out the money for the deposit, it seems too impractical to me. even if someone gives, the charges will be as high as 1000-1500 per day easily.
its better to buy one, use for a month, and sell it at a loss of 20-30k

I have heard that film studios take SBKs on rent @ of about 3-5000 per day along with a hefty deposit for shooting purposes.
Some days the bikes r just parked for background shots !!
This obviously does not include crash sequences

Going by that yardstick, is your friend ready to shell out at least a lac for renting a SBK for a month ??!!
