Can I pay by a method other than credit card?

Sorry, payment is currently limited to credit cards.

Can I rent without a reservation?

If a bike is available on the day, you can make a booking on site. However, to secure your bike, we recommend booking online in advance. Please book early for weekends and holiday periods.

Do you provide helmets?

Yes. We provide half helmets free of charge. When renting a 125cc bike, up to two helmets can be borrowed free of charge. Gloves and phone holders are also included.

Where should I return the bike?

Please return the bike to the same location where you picked it up. One-way return is not available unless arranged in advance.
When returning the bike, put the helmet and gloves back, lock the bike, return the key to the key box, and scramble the dial lock.
Your return is complete after submitting the return form.

What if I return the bike without refueling?

If you return the bike without refueling, we will refuel it and later charge you the actual fuel cost plus a ¥1,100 refueling handling fee.

Can I extend my rental time?

You may extend the rental even if another booking is scheduled. However, an extension handling fee of ¥1,100 applies, and package rates do not apply to the extended time.

Is same-day cancellation really free?

Yes. Cancellation is free even on the same day as long as it is before the rental start time. Please note that cancellation is not possible after the rental start time has passed.

First contact the police or emergency services if necessary, then call 080-7595-3493 or contact us via LINE. Bodily injury and property damage liability insurance has unlimited coverage.
