I don't think so, but you can always call 'em up and ask... http://www.303cycle.com/

No, they got out of the rental biz for over a year now.

Rent a Hardley? Plenty of places for those!

Assuming your friend doesn't want to rent Harleys... :D

I dunno if these guys are still around. http://www.tourbikes.com/bikes.html

Appreciate the input. He's looking for a sportbike. That stuff is pretty much what I came up with as well. Lame..

Tylar made mention of him finding a beemer for a friend to rent...maybe contact him about where he got it from...still not a sportbike, but hey, its got 2 wheels.

Too high liability insurance to rent out sportbikes, was the comment I heard when I spoke to DK about when they were folding up Colorado Sportbike Rentals.

The ST1300 or the FRJ1300 would be a good rental bike close enough to sport as your going to get nowadays in a rental. I have a friend that used to track his ST1300 and keep up just fine on people on R1's and the like (again most people can not ride worth shit on the street...nor should you in reality try to ride to the limits).

My friend had to rent a HD V-Rod a few times for our East Coast trips...still he had a blast, and it was some good times *shrug*

Looking like those are really the only options. I forwarded it to him to see what he wants to do.

Thanks all!

Since HDs are fairly available to rent, maybe call RMHD and see if they'll rent out a Buell? :dunno:

Not a bad idea. Thanks Salsa!

Doubtful they have any Buell's left. The 1125R I rented a couple years ago was great.
