Are you looking to rent a motorcycle in France, for a weekend, a road trip or simply for a one-off need? Whether it's to get away from it all on two wheels, to get to an event, or to test a model before buying, motorcycle rental has become a reflex for many drivers. But where can you rent a motorcycle in France? Which services are the most practical, the most reliable and, above all, the best suited to your needs? We'll guide you.


What are the best motorcycle rental services in France?

In France, several solutions coexist: physical agencies, private rental platforms, dealerships, and 100% digital players like Good Motors.

👉 Classic rental companies (like Hertz Ride, Road2Luxe, etc.) generally offer a limited fleet and restricted opening hours. They often require you to go through an agency, which means time-consuming procedures.

👉 Peer-to-peer platforms (such as Rider Club or Getaround) may appeal on price, but have limitations in terms of availability, reliability and insurance coverage.

Good Motors sets itself apart by offering a 100% digital self-service service, with recent motorcycles, accessible 24/7, in train stations and city centers in more than 10 major metropolitan areas. Today, it's one of the best solutions for renting a motorcycle in France, with complete autonomy.


Can I rent a motorcycle directly from the train station or airport?

Yes, and that's one of the main advantages of modern services like Good Motors. No need to look for an agency or queue up at a counter.

🚉 S tations served by Good Motors: Paris Gare du Nord, Lyon Part-Dieu, Marseille Saint-Charles, Bordeaux Saint-Jean, Toulouse Matabiau, Montpellier Saint-Roch, Avignon TGV, Aix-en-Provence TGV, Nice Ville, Biarritz.

✈️ Some motorcycles are also available near airports such as Nice Côte d'Azur, to make it easier for business travelers or tourists to get around on a two-wheeler as soon as they get off the plane.


Is it possible to rent a motorcycle 24 hours a day and
7 days a week?

Absolutely. Good Motors offers a 100% autonomous service, with no time constraints and no agency to contact.

📲 You book directly online via goodmotors.agency, receive a secure access code, and collect the bike from a dedicated parking lot at any time, even on Sundays or early mornings.

This 24/7 self-service operation is ideal for tight schedules, unexpected departures, or simply for total flexibility.


What's the best way to rent an A2 motorcycle in France?

More and more young drivers (aged 18-24) are taking out their A2 license, and many are looking for powerful yet affordable motorcycles.

👨‍🦱 Good Motors offers a wide selection of A2 motorcycles for hire, in all the towns in its network: Honda NX500, Royal Enfield Interceptor, Royal Enfield Himalayan, etc...

✅ Advantage: the bikes are A2-approved, clamped if necessary, with a low or adjustable seat for beginners, and a service that accepts young licenses from the age of 18.

🚫 Unlike some rental companies, Good Motors does not set a high age limit or minimum length of experience for A2s.
