Is insurance included with the rental?
Yes, we provide third-party CTP insurance with all our scooter rentals. However, this only covers compulsory third-party injuries and does not include third-party damage. We do offer capped damage liability for the rental bike itself, but unfortunately, we are unable to offer third-party damage insurance.

When picking up your rental, please bring the following:

How far can I travel on a full tank of fuel?
Our 50cc scooters can travel up to 150km on a single 5L tank of fuel, offering excellent fuel efficiency of over 30km/L. Additionally, the Honda CB125F has an impressive fuel efficiency of 65km/L, allowing you to travel up to 800km on a full tank. This makes them perfect for both short trips and long deliveries.
