Bike rental in Europe

I have been trying in vain to ship two bikes or buy two bikes in Europe for a series of trips. Beverly needs a lighter (650cc) bike and I can use anything. The trips we want to take are:
-tour de france route May June or Sept.
-Turkey Greece Mar April or Oct Nov
- Scandinavia July Aug
-Spain Morocco May or Sept

Each of these trips would be about three weeks or a month and be done over a couple of years. Generally renting doesn't work. Do you think you would be interested in renting for these periods?
Thanks
Mike

You didn't mention the cost of renting this. If it were reasonable, I'd certainly consider it...As would a couple of friends. So what rental rates?
Cheers, Boot.

The cost of renting a motorcycle will depend on the duration, of your experience in riding on a motorcycle.
25 euros per day is the average cost for APRILIA 650

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
