The right cost comparison includes the equipment and recovery plan that make the route workable. A low rental price may exclude protective gear, damage cover, fuel, support, permits or a backup vehicle.

Ask for the full cost

  • Motorcycle, helmet, protective gear and damage or deposit terms.
  • Fuel, guide, mechanic, support vehicle, accommodation and meals.
  • Permits, park or restricted-area documents where applicable.
  • Medical, evacuation, travel and motorcycle insurance conditions.

Safety is part of the price

Budget for proper gear, rest days, spare parts and a recovery option. The cheapest plan becomes expensive when a rider is exhausted, a road closes or a bike fails far from support.
