Motorcycles for Hire

Please enquire about our free collection/drop off shuttle from Palm Cove/Cairns CBD.

Cairns Motorcycle Hire will provide as much information for you ahead of your planned adventure. Please contact us in advance of your trip for tips and recommendations.

We can include helmet, jacket and gloves in the cost of your hire. We DO NOT have footwear or trousers.

Cairns Motorcycle Hire recommends that all people travelling in Australia take out Personal Travel Insurance.

We also will not charge anything if you bring your bike back dirty or dusty. There are NO post hire cleaning charges. Any breakages we’ll repair at cost and agree these costs with you upfront when you return the bike.

Queensland has the highest penalties in Australia for speeding (www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Safety/Driver-guide/Speeding/Speeding-fines-and-demerit-points). Infringement fees are debited from your credit card at cost with an AUD50 admin fee for the statutory declaration.

Our fleet requires a pre-hire bond of between AUD1,000 and AUD2,000 with an excess of AUD3,000 to AUD4,000.
