Hawaii Bike Rentals?
I notice Hawaii is not included in any of the regional forums...SInce so many Alaskans seem to venture to HI I'm wondering if anyone can help me get my mid-winter riding fix on the Big Island? Any suggestions of where I can rent a dual sport bike in or around the Kona area? My goggling shows me that it 99% harley's for rent and 1% scooters. Any ride suggestions would be good too...

Every rental car and every rental bike is a dual sport.
They're all high performance, too. ![]() Have a good time!

Agreed....
The little 4 door POS we had down there did wonderful burn-outs when you dropped it into Drive at 3k rpm.

Awesome! Thanks Mark. I'm going to contact these guys and see what I can set up. I'll take a thumper over a hog any day! And guess I won't need that extra insurance coverage on the rental car. Now I just need to figure out how I'm going to strap that baby seat on the back of a KLR.

Well, SEWERMAN found us! He's out right now on the KLR to take in a full day adventure... Hawaii style. I'm sure he'll report back with plenty of photos
