Motorcycles
Choose a motorcycle that suits you
A coastal day ride and a longer touring trip call for different considerations. Your experience, confidence handling the bike at a standstill and whether you are bringing a passenger matter as much as the style of motorcycle. Mathis helps you choose from the models offered by partners in Cape Town.
The included motorcycle depends on the tour: as with a car rental, a category is included rather than a specific model. Models shown are examples and are subject to availability from our partners. Your proposed motorcycle is confirmed with you before you book.
Adventure bike
BMW F 850 GS or similar
Included on every tour
A road-oriented adventure bike with an upright riding position. Before choosing it, we discuss the motorcycles you normally ride and how comfortable you are handling a bike of this size.
Cruiser
Harley-Davidson Iron 883 or similar
Day rides
A different way to explore the Cape’s roads, with the riding position and character of a cruiser. It is an option for day rides, depending on your experience and the planned route.
Other models on request
Do you have a particular bike in mind, or will you be riding with a passenger? Let Mathis know. He will check the options with our partners and discuss what suits the trip. The final choice depends on availability for your dates.
On the three-, five- and nine-day tours, the included category also covers a touring motorcycle such as the Harley-Davidson Street Glide or similar, subject to availability from our partners. Your proposed motorcycle is confirmed with you before you book.
Before departure
Your quote sets out the motorcycle, riding gear provided and applicable terms. We go through these details together so you know what is arranged and what you need to bring.
