Motorcycling in 2022 is very much an international business, with OEMs both operating and based in many places. Remember HondaGO? If you don’t, it started as Honda Japan’s own-brand bike rental subsidiary in 2020. Back then, we noted that you could actually rent yourself a CBR1000RR-R Fireblade for a weekend—directly from Honda—by using this service.
If the ability to rent all kinds of new Honda bikes directly from Honda in Japan wasn’t cool enough, by February, 2022, HondaGO announced that it would also rent bike gear. If you live in a tiny Tokyo apartment and you don’t have a ton of space for bulky bike gear, but you’d love to get away on a bike for a weekend, Honda is happy to help!
