Motorcycles in Tbilisi: Day Rates, Classes and Rider Rules
Motorcycle rental in Tbilisi starts from $37 a day for a 451 cc cruiser, and the middle of 40 models sits at $105 a day. Most of the range is adventure and enduro bikes built for trips out of the city. Below: how the length of a rental changes the daily rate, what each class costs, and the licence, age and deposit rules riders meet.
How bike hire is priced: one day, a week or a month
A motorcycle in the Georgian capital is priced by the day, but the day rate you see first is rarely the one you pay. The number of days, the place of handover and the extras you add all move the total.
The day rate is a starting price
Every price on this page is a "from" figure per day, converted into US dollars. It is the lowest rate found for that model, and for many bikes it belongs to the longest rental term. A dated quote for a short trip is usually higher. Treat the figure as the floor of the range, not as the price of a weekend.
Why the same bike can cost $100 or $45 a day
Tiered tariffs are common in Tbilisi, and the gap between the first and the last tier is wide. The Benelli TRK 702X and the Honda NC750S cost $100 for a single day and $45 a day once the rental runs past 30 days. The Kawasaki Eliminator 450 goes from $75 for one day to $35 a day on the same 30-day tier. Adventure tourers follow the same logic: a Honda NX500 or a Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT costs about $170 a day for one or two days and $110 a day from seven days. The Honda XL750 Transalp drops from about $200 to $150, and the Africa Twin from about $220 to $160. A KTM 390 Enduro R is quoted at $100 a day for up to five days and $80 a day from the sixth. Some companies instead take 20% off any rental longer than six days. In practice, the per-day price of a two-week trip can be anywhere from a fifth to more than half below the price of a short ride on the same machine.
What is outside the rate
Riding gear is often billed separately. Single items such as a jacket, gloves or boots run about $7 to $12 a day each, and a full adventure kit about $33 a day. If you start or finish in Kutaisi instead of Tbilisi, expect a surcharge of about $100 per motorcycle. Mileage is another line to check: one offer for the Husqvarna 701 Enduro caps the distance at 300 km a day, while some Kove offers state unlimited mileage. A day rate with a mileage cap and a day rate without one are different prices, even if the figure is the same.
Riding on your own or with a guide
Four rental modes exist side by side: self-ride by the day, weekly and monthly terms, and guided motorcycle tours where the bike comes with a route and a leader. This page covers motorbike rental in Tbilisi for the bike itself. If you plan a guided tour, the bike is usually part of the tour price and the rules below may differ.
Day rates from $37 to $270
The Rent-Trip section brings together 40 motorcycle models from 15 makers. BMW and Honda account for seven models each, KTM for four, and Suzuki, CFMoto, Kawasaki and Kove for three each. By class, 24 of the 40 are adventure bikes, seven are enduro bikes, and the remaining nine are dual-sport, naked, sport, cruiser and standard machines.
Four price bands
| Band, per day | Models | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Under $50 | 6 | Kawasaki Eliminator 450 ($37), Hero Xpulse 200 Pro ($40), Benelli TRK 702X ($45) |
| $50–99 | 10 | Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 ($65), Suzuki DR-Z 400 ($75), BMW F650GS ($91) |
| $100–129 | 13 | Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 ($100), BMW F800GS ($120), KTM 790 Adventure ($110) |
| $130 and up | 11 | Honda Africa Twin ($160), BMW F850GS Adventure ($170), Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R ($270) |
Half the models, 20 of the 40, start at $100 a day or less, and the median sits at $105. The average is a little higher, at about $107, because a handful of large bikes pull it up.
Engine size and price do not line up
Displacement is a weak guide here. The 700 cc Benelli TRK 702X starts at $45, while the 450 cc Kove 450 Rally starts at $150. The 390 cc KTM 390 Adventure, at $120, costs more than the 650 cc Suzuki V-Strom at $110. What drives the price is the class of bike, its age, the length of the rental behind the "from" figure and the company offering it. Compare bikes of the same class and the same term, not the same number of cubic centimetres.
What a week costs at the day rate
Multiplying the starting rate by seven gives a rough ceiling for a week, not an exact quote. The cheapest bike works out at about $259 for seven days, a mid-range bike at $105 a day comes to about $735, and the BMW F850GS Adventure at $170 comes to $1,190. Where a 20% long-rental discount applies, the mid-range week drops to about $588. Add gear and any one-way surcharge on top of that figure.
Budget and road bikes under $100
Sixteen models start below $100 a day. Two of them are enduros, covered in the next section; the other 14 split into small dual-sports, road bikes and entry-level adventure machines, and they suit very different trips.
200 cc dual-sports: Hero Xpulse and Pro Tank
The Hero Xpulse 200 Pro starts at $40 a day and the standard Xpulse 200 at $44. Both are 200 cc dual-sports, the lightest and cheapest way to try unpaved roads. The Pro Tank 200 EFI, a 200 cc standard bike, also starts at $40. The spread between quotes on these small bikes is wide: the Xpulse 200 also appears at about $56 a day for a two-day booking and at about $91 a day elsewhere, and the Pro version at about $57. Ask what term a low figure belongs to.
Road bikes: Eliminator, NC750S, Gladius, Z125 Pro and CBR500R
For city riding and paved routes the choice runs from a cruiser to a sport bike. The Kawasaki Eliminator 450/500 is the cheapest model on the page at $37. The Honda NC750S, offered with a DCT automatic gearbox in one version, starts at $45. The Suzuki Gladius 650 starts at $68, the Kawasaki Z125 Pro at $70, and the Honda CBR500R sport bike at $79. The Z125 Pro is the only 125 cc model in the range, which matters for the licence rules in the section below.
Entry adventure bikes
Six lighter adventure bikes sit between $45 and $97. The 700 cc Benelli TRK 702X starts at $45, but that is its long-term tier; a single day costs $100. The Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 starts at $65. The Honda XL650 Transalp, an older bike from the 2003–2005 model years, is $80. The 650 cc BMW F650GS and the 450 cc CFMoto 450MT both start at $91, and the 500 cc Jawa RVM 500 Aventura at $97. The CFMoto 450MT has the widest quote range of the group: about $150 a day for two days in one search and about $140 in another offer, against the $91 starting rate. For a first trip into the mountains on a modest budget, this band offers the best ratio of capability to price. Ask about luggage and the model year before you compare quotes.
Enduro bikes for gravel and mountain tracks
Seven enduro models start between $75 and $150 a day. They are aimed at gravel, dirt and steep tracks rather than long motorway stretches.
Light enduros: DR-Z 400, CRF300L Rally and KTM 390 Enduro R
The Suzuki DR-Z 400 is the cheapest enduro at $75 a day, and one company offers examples no older than 2019. The Honda CRF300L Rally starts at $97, with another offer at about $140. The KTM 390 Enduro R, with 399 cc and 45 hp, starts at $100 a day and drops to $80 a day from the sixth day. These three are the entry point to off-road riding and cost less than most adventure tourers.
700 cc singles: KTM 690, Husqvarna 701 and GasGas ES 700
The big singles start at $100 to $110 a day. The KTM 690 Enduro R and the GasGas ES 700 both begin at $100, and the Husqvarna 701 Enduro at $110. Short bookings cost noticeably more: two-day prices run about $150 a day for the KTM 690 and about $140 for the Husqvarna, and the Husqvarna offer came with a 300 km daily mileage limit. If you rent a motorcycle in Tbilisi for a long mountain loop, that limit can be the deciding factor, so check it before you compare.
Kove 450 Rally
The Kove 450 Rally is the most expensive enduro at $150 a day. It costs about the same as a large adventure tourer. It makes sense for an experienced off-road rider; for most trips a 400 cc or 690 cc enduro covers the same ground for less.
Adventure tourers: BMW GS, Africa Twin, KTM and Kove
Adventure bikes are the core of the Tbilisi market: 24 of the 40 models belong to this class, and the 18 priced at $100 a day or more are listed below. They are built for multi-day trips that mix highway with mountain roads, for example towards Kazbegi or Tusheti.
| Model | Engine | From, per day |
|---|---|---|
| Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 ABS | 450 cc | $100 |
| Honda NX500 | 500 cc | $110 |
| Suzuki DL650 XT V-Strom | 650 cc | $110 |
| BMW F700GS | — | $110 |
| BMW F800GS Adventure | 800 cc | $110 |
| KTM 790 Adventure | 790 cc | $110 |
| CFMoto 800MT X | 800 cc | $110 |
| BMW F800GS | — | $120 |
| KTM 390 Adventure | — | $120 |
| Kove 525X | — | $140 |
| CFMoto 700MT | — | $140 |
| Yamaha Tenere 700 / XTZ 690 ABS | — | $150 |
| Honda XL750 Transalp | 750 cc | $150 |
| BMW R1200GS Adventure | 1,200 cc | $150 |
| Kove 800X Pro | — | $150 |
| BMW F850GS | — | $160 |
| Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin | 1,100 cc | $160 |
| BMW F850GS Adventure | — | $170 |
The BMW GS line
Seven BMW models cover almost the whole price range of the class. The F650GS starts at $91, the F700GS at $110 and the F800GS at $120. The F800GS Adventure, with 85 hp, starts at $110. The F850GS is $160 and the F850GS Adventure, the most expensive bike in the class, $170. The 1,200 cc R1200GS Adventure, the largest GS on offer, starts at $150. If BMW GS rental in Tbilisi is the goal, the F800GS and F800GS Adventure give the best balance of size and price, at $40 to $60 a day below the F850GS pair.
Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha
The Honda NX500 and the Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT both start at $110 on a seven-day term. The Honda XL750 Transalp, with a seat height of 84 cm, starts at $150. The Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin or Africa Twin Adventure Sports starts at $160 on a seven-day term, and another offer quotes the Africa Twin at $150 a day. The Yamaha Tenere 700 / XTZ 690 ABS starts at $150.
KTM, CFMoto and Kove
The KTM 790 Adventure starts at $110 and the smaller KTM 390 Adventure at $120. The CFMoto 800MT X is $110 and its sibling, the CFMoto 700MT, $140. The CFMoto 800MT X also appears at about $170 a day for a two-day search, which shows again how much the term moves the figure. Two Kove models round out the group: the Kove 525X at $140 and the Kove 800X Pro at $150, both offered with unlimited mileage.
The outlier: Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R
The one superbike in the range, the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R, starts at $270 a day, and another offer for a ZX-10 sits at about $320. It is the most expensive motorcycle on this page by a wide margin and is meant for paved roads only.
Licence, age, deposit and helmet
Rental companies in Tbilisi state their rules differently, so the points below are the ones riders meet most often, not a single universal policy.
Licence category
Georgian licences use category AM for mopeds and A1 for light motorcycles up to 125 cc. Of the 40 models on this page, only the Kawasaki Z125 Pro falls within the 125 cc limit; every other bike is larger, so an A1 licence does not cover it. Bring a licence with a motorcycle category that covers the engine size you plan to ride, and ask the company in advance which licences it accepts.
Minimum age
One Tbilisi company sets the minimum age at 24 for its adventure bikes, and 24 is a safe assumption when you plan a trip on a large GS or Africa Twin. State your age and years of riding when you send a request.
Deposit and payment
A refundable deposit is standard. Common figures are $300 and $400, returned when the motorcycle comes back in its original condition. Some companies accept both cash and card. Ask whether the deposit is taken in cash, blocked on a card or both, and in what currency.
Helmet and riding gear
A helmet is mandatory for both the rider and the passenger on any motorcycle, scooter or moped in Georgia. If you do not travel with your own, rent one together with the bike; as noted above, single items cost about $7 to $12 a day and a full adventure kit about $33.
Key points before you book
Six figures to keep in mind
- Day rate: the 40 models start between $37 and $270 a day, with the middle at $105.
- Term: the same bike can cost $100 for one day and $45 a day past 30 days; seven-day tariffs on adventure tourers run about $50 to $60 a day below the one- or two-day price.
- Class: 24 adventure and 7 enduro models make up most of the range; road bikes start from $37.
- Licence: only one model, the 125 cc Kawasaki Z125 Pro, fits within the A1 category.
- Deposit: expect about $300 to $400, refundable.
- Extras: gear from about $7 a day per item or $33 for a full kit; a Kutaisi handover adds about $100.
How to send a request that gets a usable quote
Name the model or the class, your exact dates and the number of days, and where you want to collect and return the bike. Add your age, licence category and riding experience. Ask in the same message for the deposit, the mileage terms, the price of gear and any one-way surcharge. Two quotes that answer all of this can be compared line by line; two bare day rates cannot. With those details fixed, motorcycle rental in Tbilisi comes down to matching the class of bike to the roads you plan to ride.
