Travelling by Motorcycle: Before You Leave
Location Map of Destinations
Why Travel by Motorcycle?
Beyond the interest one might have in motorcycles themselves, travelling by this mode of transport offers several advantages. First and foremost, it provides total independence and freedom in your movements, at a lower cost than a car or camper van for those who want their own vehicle while travelling. In short, savings on purchase, maintenance, and even when shipping your vehicle across oceans.
Despite this, motorcycle travel is no longer necessarily the Adventure it once was. Advances in mechanics have greatly simplified things, and now almost anyone can consider a motorcycle journey. In fact, in many places around the world, rental bikes are now easy to find.
Paperwork and Useful Documents
Just like for those travelling on four wheels, you’ll need an international driving permit, vehicle registration, insurance, and optionally a customs carnet.
Where to Go?
For you to expand: Whether you're a beginner or experienced rider, the destination may vary depending on the type of bike you own.
