Choose the right motorbike rental unit
It is not hard to find motorbike rental units through online ads with the promise of low cost and high quality, yet eventually, turn out the trick. In reality, a large number of BM Travel Adventure customers have said that they received the bitter hoax when falling for these false advertisements and ended up with terrible motorbikes. If possible, you’d better consult with your friends or do research on travel pages for prestigious motorbike rental Vietnam units before renting the motorbikes.
Check the motorbike carefully before renting
It is crucial that you check the motorbike carefully before renting, especially if you rent it for traveling. The roads might be rough and not as easy to go as those within the cities. Therefore, if your vehicles are not of good quality, there is a high potential that you could experience mechanical malfunctions and several troubles on the way. You should check if your tires are too worn out; if the brakes are surely working and if the mirrors are available and in good function. For further examination, you could start the motorbikes and trying to run it out on the spot.
Don’t skip the rental procedures and thoroughly check the motorbike’s registration papers
Many people rush into renting motorbikes straight away and never pay attention to motorbikes’ documents and rental contracts. Usually, when you rent the motorbikes, the lenders won’t show you the original registration and insurance papers but only provide you the notarized versions of these documents. Thus, you should ask for the original documents to compare to avoid situations in which the lenders unintentionally transfer the wrong documents or intentionally provide you with vehicles of unclear origins. If the lenders refuse to show you the original documents or fail to prove the legal origins of the motorcycles, do not rent the vehicles.
