Advice for first time bike rental

Rental prices vary depending on the model and age/condition of the motorbike you want to rent. The cheapest are the semi-automatics, like a Honda Wave or Dream. The automatics go up from there, starting with something like a SYM Attila or Yahama Nuovo. The more upscale models, like Honda Dylan 150, @ 150, and SH 150 are usually the most expensive to rent. Monthly rental prices usually fall in line with purchase prices - meaning the bikes that are the cheapest to buy are also the cheapest to rent. Montly rental prices usually start around $40-45 and go up from there, following the outline above. I think an SH 150 typically goes for about $150/month. You could get a loan and buy one for that, but as I've posted here previously, I don't recommend it.
