    I am happy to recommend "Te Waipounamu MC Rentals' in CHCH and Auckland.

    I have had three experiences with them (ST1300). All great.

    Waikato Rentals surprised me that amongst their minibusses and light trucks they have budget bike rental. about 5 bikes -mostly adventure bikes.
    Retired- just some guy with a few bikes......

    Get a mortgage. $200/hr Hookers are cheaper than bike rentals in NZ. Seriously, they are better off buying on arrival and selling before they leave.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Yes, a colleague visiting from the USA a year ago rented a bike from this company based in Auckland. He picked up his bike from Crummer Road in Grey Lynn however I guess they have since then moved out to Onehunga. They seemed very helpful:

    Do they take offers on the $200 depending on how busy they are?
