A list of reasons NOT to hire with Baiku
Expensive Daily Rates/Insurance
Rent a motorcycle from a bigger city in New Zealand, particularly Auckland or Christchurch and you will probably spend less on the daily rate of hire.
We can't offer $0 damage excess options like you can get from some vehicle rental companies. Our standard excess is $2500 NZD.
Boring Bikes/Lack of Choice
We do not have the most exciting motorcycle models and we do not have a huge selection. Our aim is mid-ranged, 'OK at most things bikes'.
Not fast, not adventure bikes and not the most flash motorcycle models.
Our Depot Location
From Queenstown, we take you on an hour shuttle ride to our depot in Alexandra to collect your bike. After your trip, you will return the bike there and be shuttled back to Queenstown.
You can have the motorcycle delivered to Queenstown (by us) for a fee.
New Zealand is expensive to travel!
In peak seasons accommodation providers price gouge to make the most of the tourist market. Particularly in places like Lake Tekapo, Queenstown and Te Anau.
If you are on a budget, look out of the main centres for accomodation (eg stay in Twizel instead of Tekapo, Cromwell/Alexandra instead of Queenstown).
3 Day Minimum Hire
Our Motorcycles only go out on a three day hire minimum. If you are only interested in a day hire there are other rental companies around the area such as Central Otago Motorcycle Hire or Wanaka Power Sports.
