One of my wife's big wishes is to be able to cruise down the road with me on the back of a Harley. Is there anywhere that rents motorcycles? I plan on taking a safety course and all that good stuff, and this is something I really want to do for her. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Check the local dealerships here in JAX. According to the link below Adamec rents. Good luck

Assume you have a motorcycle license (you need one):

As Robyn55 asked, do you have a motorcycle license or going to get one before renting? I don't think a person can rent a motorcycle without one.

most Harley dealerships offer a rental program but as stated you do need a motorcycle endorsement on your license

Default You guys...

You guys are all AWESOME! I had no clue that the local dealers would rent Harleys! No, I don't have my motorcycle license, which is part of the reason I ended up in a "bit of trouble" about 20 years ago (that, and the expired temporary tag of a Mercury Marquis, the lack of any registration and all sorts of little details I thought unimportant at the time).

But I will work on getting that, a safety course, and everything needed prior to it.

I can't thank you all enough!!

Just trying to make sure your gift to your wife works out ok. I love romantic gestures . You'd look like an idiot showing up with her at a Harley rental place without the appropriate docs. Anyway - good luck (and also make sure your auto policy covers your Harley rental). Robyn

HD Dealers rent them. Many along I-95. Motorcycle endorsement, proper Insurance and big credit card limit.
