Srinagar Bike Rental Rates 2024 – 2025

In this article, I will list down Srinagar Bike Rental Rates for the year 2024-25. If you are planning a trip to either Kashmir or Ladakh this year but cannot bring your own bike, then renting a motorcycle from Srinagar city for the tip is a great option.

Mention below is the per-day cost that you will pay depending on the motorcycle you choose. Apart from the charges, I will also provide a few tips that you should keep in mind while taking a bike out on rent.

For renting a motorcycle in Srinagar, you can contact Faisal at 09596 410 670. Give him my reference and he will give you the best possible rate. I have rented bikes from him several times and was never disappointed with the bike’s performance or the price he quoted.

Srinagar Bike Rental Rates

As a matter of fact, the daily rental in Leh and Srinagar city is almost the same. The only difference however is in terms of the motorcycles you will get. In Leh city, you can easily find bikes like Pulsar and automatic bikes like Scooty and Activa.

In Srinagar city, however, these are not really that commonly available. Only a few rental agencies have automatic scooters available for rent. The rest of them majorly deal in Royal Enfield only.

The contact number I provided above is of a rental agency that has Activa available as well if that is what you are interested in renting.

Rent a Bike in Srinagar

The important thing to note here is that in Ladakh, there is a Ladakh Motorbike Rental Association that all rental agencies work with. The rates that the association decides are standard that anyone will charge you in Leh.

In Srinagar however, there is no association, and every agency has its own bike rates. These however are more or less the same with only a difference of a couple hundred.

This in fact is actually a good thing because there is no association that you have to worry about. You are free to negotiate a deal and the chances of getting one in Srinagar are way higher than in Ladakh.

The minimum rental period in Srinagar is one day. There is no half-day rule applicable like in Ladakh. If you take a bike on rent, you take it for an entire day.

Please note that if you are a foreign national, your local driving license issued in your respective country will not work. You must hold an International driving license. Without it, no rental agency will hand you over their motorcycles.

For some agencies, this international driving license will suffice but others may even ask for your passport as well. If you are however an Indian citizen, all that you need to produce is your own permanent driving license.

Bullet on Rent in Srinagar

As you can see from the list above, Royal Enfield is the hot favorite of both rental agencies and customers alike. Depending on which model you choose, renting a Bullet in Srinagar will cost you between Rs. 1,500 to Rs. 2,000 per day. Royal Enfield Himalayan is the costliest of all the models.

Srinagar to Leh Bike Rental

I would definitely recommend renting an Enfield only for the trip. If you are riding solo, then it’s best that you go for a 350CC motorcycle. Renting a 500CC engine is just more power that you will not really need. If you were however with a pillion and all the luggage, I must in that case recommend renting a 500CC Bullet.

Where to Rent a Bike in Srinagar

From my own personal experience, the preferred place to rent a bike would be Kashmir Travelogue.

Rates that these guys will offer you would be hard to bear elsewhere in Srinagar. They are highly professional, and humble, and will ensure that you get the best out of your trip, and a total worth of every penny spent.

The riding gear that other agencies will charge you for is Rs. 350 per day, these guys will provide it for free. And their riding gear is quite comprehensive too, way bigger than all others.

Other agencies will charge you about 10000 to 15000 as a security amount. Faisal will charge you only about Rs. 5000. If you give him my reference, he may not even charge you that.
