    The last time I was in Dumaguete, about two years ago, there was a motorbike hire shop in the airport, in the place that used by the Pirate Bay sub-branch.

    These were no ordinary bikes, they were amazing machines and I wondered how such luxurious items would or could survive in a place like Dumaguete.

    My questions is, does the place still exist and how can I get in touch with them?

    For what it's worth may I offer a reasonable/doable option to renting? Buy a quality scooter that you like. Yamaha, Kawi, Suzuki, Honda. (best resale value) Advertise it for sale the day you buy it. Devalue it 5k a month for your time here (price of a rental) and pre sell it on DI, FB or other social mediums. You should have no problem selling a 3 month old, brand name scooter for 15k less than msrp... This will work buddy...

    That's a great idea, especially if you substitute in my less than a year old Rouser 180 I am selling which is Showcased here: Kawasaki Rouser 180 - Only P59,500 :2thumbs:

    59k is a reasonable price for your bike with the options...but.... not everyone can (wants) to ride a bike here with a clutch. For this gentleman to resell your bike after 3 months he might find the same issues you are having when that time comes... Also your bike would be a 2 model year old unit a few months from now and that makes it even harder to sell, opposed to a 3 month old, current model year bike as I have suggested imho.

    Yes, but using your math and discounting 15k for 'rent' he would be selling for 44k which should make it an easy sell. Can't blame me for trying right?
