    Talking Renting a motorbike - Possible?

    Hey all,
    just wondering if anyone knows of anywhere you can hire a motorbike (no, not a scooter).
    Used to ride a lot back in oz, but don't know of anywhere to get a fix over here. Had some workmates say that noone does bike hires cos they just end up over the border in china.. Not overly fussed about type (so long as is actually a motorbike) just want to go for a ride..

    Any ideas? Need my fix
    Nath

    Dude, your friends must the real gweilo losers to say 'all the bikes get nicked and sent to China'. Utter BS. There are lots of riders in HK - inluding me. On HK island, the chance of getting your baby nicked are tiny, it's super law-abiding. I park my bike on the street overnight, no problem, not even a lock. I guess if you have the showboat type of bike - Ducatti, BMW, Harley - you would be better off in a private parking. Overall, bikes are perfect for HK - awesome fun in NT and country parks and beat taxis, MTR and buses any time...
