Well i'm 19. What age are you supposed to be? Confused
I will be wanting a 600. Something like a hornet or a bandit.
How much should i be expecting to pay for a weekend?

Rental place near me, you have to be 25 to hire a 600 and 30 for a litre bike.

I think it varies from place to place.

My local dealer rents out all sorts of bikes. Some you need to be over 21, some 25, most powerful 30.

Over 21 can get you an ER-5 or equivilent....

But a Hornet\Bandit is over 25. Worth calling around\searching the Net.

Hope this helps

I'm having a bit of a blank this morning, but aren't you meant to be 21 or over to do your DAS? So surely hiring a 600 out to someone who's 19 will be a no-no?

Obviously they could have the restricted license, but will there be abyone who hires out restricted bikes? That might make the search even narrower.
