Hi all, Can someone give me some feedback about setting up a small motorbike hire business?? Thanks, Anzac. :icon_biggrin:
Ok .... how about hiring out some big ones? IMHO small motorbikes will never take off!
Ok but how big are you referring too?
Sorry Anzac - I was being humorous! On a serious note though I believe it would very difficult to start a motorcycle hire biz anywhere in Indo. The rate is a about 6 bucks a day. If the margin was 3 bucks per unit/day that would mean you would need something like 100, with every single one out there on hire/day in order to get a reasonable income. I would liken it to trying to recycle Aqua bottles! Just my 2 cents worth mate.
LOL no probs mate. I'm trying to get a feel for the business side of Bali I just wanty a small business mainly to get a business kita's so I can come and go between Bali and Australia. I would like to work six months in Australia then six months relaxing in Bali I would not really care if I did not make much profit with MB buisiness it's would really just be a portal for me. What ya think?
Well, back in 2002 I bought some property on Lombok and at the time my Australian lawyer (still based in Bali) said "you know the one thing missing here in Bali is a used car lot". Now to this day I still have not seen one Anzac and as a start up company I reckon if I had the time I'd give it a lash! Or , or ... wait for it... drive in bottle shop!!!! Apparently the only thing you need to do is sell something other than grog and you are up and running - true story!
with every local already trying to rent out their bike , they will run you out of town quick smart ...,
