Motorcycle rental in San Francisco – A practical city and coastal guide

Motorcycles provide freedom and excitement for exploring San Francisco and its surrounding areas. From urban cruising to coastal rides, motorcycles offer flexibility and the ability to cover long distances quickly while still enjoying the scenery.

Rental requirements for motorcycles

Most companies require a full motorcycle license (Class M). Smaller motorcycles around 125cc may sometimes be rented with a car license depending on the provider. International travelers are often asked for both a home license and an International Driving Permit. Minimum age is typically 21, and a deposit is required.

Rental rules for motorcycles

Motorcycles are delivered in safe, working condition. Helmets are often included, and jackets, gloves, or luggage racks may be available for an extra fee. Return policies usually require coming back to the original rental office, though hotel delivery and alternative drop-off options may be available.

Traffic rules for motorcyclists

California requires all riders to wear helmets, headlights on at all times, and obey traffic signals. Lane splitting is legal but must be done with caution. Riders should avoid abrupt maneuvers and always ride defensively on San Francisco’s steep streets.

Recommended motorcycle routes

  • Ride along the Pacific Coast Highway toward Half Moon Bay

  • Cruise across the Golden Gate Bridge for iconic views

  • Explore Lombard Street and surrounding hills carefully

  • Take Highway 1 for a scenic coastal adventure

  • Urban exploration through the Mission District, Marina, and Presidio

Motorcycle rental in San Francisco provides an exciting way to experience the city, combining urban exploration with longer coastal and hillside trips.

    Description:Included: two helmets, side bags, additional driver, security lock, drop-off and pick-up within 7 miles (ca. 11 km) from the office, minimum liability insurance, unlimited mileage.
    The Heritage Softail® Classic is styled to recall the past. The fat front fork is reminiscent of a 1949 Harley-Davidson Hydra Glide.

Sixteen-inch laced wheels feature a new chromed-aluminum hub and a machined-aluminum rear hub. The Heritage Softail is American iron at its finest; the perfect blend of chrome, leather and steel. This bike has a wide, comfortable seat for riders; and one of the most comfortable seat and backrest combinations for passengers. The riding position is a bit more reclined that other touring models, and the handlebar height provides riders with a sensation of riding a classic American chopper, while still allowing for a comfortable and safe ride. The 25.5" seat height makes it an attractive bike for riders with shorter legs who still want the comfort and handling of a touring model.
