ABOUT
I’m Dr. Kuthati, an expat who came to Taiwan for my PhD and now work as a researcher at a local hospital. Outside of my research, I’m deeply passionate about motorcycles and scooters, and I love helping newcomers rent, learn, and ride safely throughout Taiwan.Unlike large rental shops that treat this purely as a business, I personally care for every motorcycle and scooter I rent out. This is a registered and fully legal business, but I don’t operate a physical storefront because it’s not my full-time job. It’s something I do out of genuine passion and a love for riding.I understand the challenges foreigners often face when renting in Taiwan from language barriers, unfamiliar road rules, confusing terms, and steep deposits. That’s why I aim to keep things simple, transparent, and welcoming. Every bike is well-maintained and thoroughly inspected before each rental to ensure a safe and smooth experience.I'm always happy to offer route suggestions, riding tips, and guidance on traffic rules or local customs. My approach is flexible and honest, no hidden fees, no tourist traps, just a fair, rider-focused way to explore Taiwan on two wheels.FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ?1. Can I ride round the island on scooter ?Answer:Yes, you can ride round the island on a scooter, and the round-the-island trip takes about 1200 km to 1400 km for most of the customers who rent from us. We suggest renting the Yamaha Smax 155 for round-the-island trips as it's comfortable for long distances and safer.2. Do scooters have any insurance?Answer: All the rental scooters have basic third-party and medical insurance, which is mandatory for all vehicles in Taiwan. This basic insurance does not cover the damages to the scooter; you are responsible for any damages occurring during the rental period. We recommend obtaining your own medical or damage insurance from your home country, if possible.3. Do you provide helmets?
Answer: Yes, we provide basic 3/4 and half helmets freely, as it is unlawful to ride a scooter without a helmet in Taiwan. The helmets provided by us are basic helmets and not expensive ones, as customers often damage them. However, we suggest you prepare your own helmets if you want a perfect-fitting helmet for round-the-island trips, as Asian head shape varies with other countries.4. Do you provide mobile holders for GPS navigation?
Answer:Yes, we provide mobile phone mounts for all our scooters, which can accommodate phones under 6 inches in size. We suggest you bring power banks, as scooters do not have a charging port.5. Are rental plans customizable?
Answer:The rental plans are customizable. For a custom quote, please message us.6. Do I have to sign any rental contract?
Answer:Yes, you have to sign a rental contract with your passport and driver's license details. The terms and conditions of the rental, along with the rental duration, the deposit, and the rental fee charged, will be mentioned on the contract.7. I have additional questions to ask?
Answer:Please message us in WhatsApp, Line, or FB. We will reply between 7:00 am and 11:00 pm Taiwan local time. Thank you.8. Can i pay with card?
Answer: Cash is preferred, but we also accept Line Pay, Visa, Mastercard, and JCB. A 5% surcharge applies when paying by card
