Motorbike rental Malaysia on a tight budget is easier than most people think: at Alquiler, nine bikes in the catalogue at www.alquilermotorbike.com are priced at RM45 a day or less, covering both automatic scooters and manual bikes. Here's a quick guide to what you can rent for under RM50 a day in KL, and which one suits which kind of rider.
If you want the lowest price, two bikes sit at RM35 a day. The Modenas Karisma 125S is an automatic, so there is no clutch or gear changes to think about, which makes it a comfortable pick for new riders, students, and anyone who just needs to get around Damansara and the city without spending much. The SYM Sport Bonus 110 SR is also RM35 a day, but it is a manual, so it suits riders who already know how to use a clutch and want the cheapest manual option in the catalogue.
At RM40 a day, you get a wider choice. The Benelli VZ125i is an automatic and a good all-rounder for daily commuting, with the easy twist-and-go riding that makes stop-start KL traffic far less tiring. On the manual side, the Honda RS and the Honda RS 150R (2024, red) are both RM40 a day. These are lightweight, nimble bikes that are popular for city riding because they slip through traffic easily and are simple to handle once you are used to a manual gearbox.
At RM45 a day, you can step up to the SYM Jet 14, an automatic scooter that is a good fit for riders who want something a little more polished for everyday trips. There are also three Honda RS-X Winner X bikes at RM45 a day (the Blue, the Red, and the 2023 Red). These are manual bikes with a sportier look and feel, which makes them a nice choice if you want a bit more personality than a basic commuter without moving into the higher price brackets.
So which one should you pick? If you have never ridden a manual, go automatic: the Karisma at RM35 is the cheapest, and the VZ125i or SYM Jet 14 are just a few ringgit more. If you are comfortable with gears, the Sport Bonus 110 SR at RM35 and the Honda RS or RS 150R at RM40 give you the best value in the manual range. If you want a sportier look for a small step up in price, the RS-X Winner X is the one to look at.
The daily rate also gets cheaper the longer you rent. Alquiler gives an automatic 10% off for rentals of 7 to 29 days, and 50% off for rentals of 30 days or more, so a bike that costs RM35 or RM40 a day works out to far less over a month. A free standard helmet comes with every rental, and extra gear is available from RM5 if you need it.
