Two bikes needed South Africa buy/rent

Hey all!

Because the grind of University sometimes deserves a break, Jan 2012, a friend of mine and and I are looking to do a tour of southern Africa.

The issue we are having is getting the bikes! Most rental agencies are looking for $5000 USD per bike for the two month time period with a sizable security deposit. My request, to see if any kind hearted bikers in South Africa would be willing to rent/sell bikes to us for two months (Jan-Mar.) I would love to get in contact with you!

Thanks
Gus

You could do worse

As the last post said Thomas at www.motozu.lu.ms is a good hire company south of Durban, not new bikes but well maintained mostly XT600,s at reasonable prices.A much better option than the BMW dealer!!!!!
