Inspired by another thread.

And if you have multiple Spyders, would you rent out your most expensive one ??

 

[SportsterDoc]

...NO...

 

[Ex-Rocket]

[Grandpot]

I would rather rent out my first born.:shocked:

I let a friend use my Spyder to go to Spyderquest. His was in the shop getting work done. I have 2 Spyder.

Depends on who it is and where they are going.

 

[Lew L]

Probably not. I lent out my chainsaw once--- came back seized up. I Learned From that.

From the results of the pole so far Lou---- you've got your answer.

 

[Motorcycledave]

Same answer as my Snapon tools. NO

Have honestly tried persuading buds into getting their own by letting them test ride in parking lots,:roflblack: didn’t show them how to shift gears till after was done so they never got out of first, no real big lots usually just on empty outskirts where we would meat before a ride. Plenty for figure 8, zigzag& loop mostly straight from manual. But theses are people I know & can feasibly trust to behave with my machine:lecturef_smilie: plus have their own bikes & Insuranse. Would I rent to a stranger , to drive in public on these roads:roflblack::roflblack::barf: NO short simple, no haggling, argument or headache. Just Done. Not a matter of$$$$$$ they got enough to offer, they know could have bought a few :spyder2:several times over & would not be talking to me, except maybe where to RYDE. :riding::thumbup:

 

[KenInMN]

no way!!!!!

 

[EdMat]

I would gladly rent mine out. But only a very rich fool would pay what I would want to charge.

 

[CaptainScoundrel]

I'll probably be renting out my 08 Spyder for a while. I'll use the cash to fund some other projects.

I don't think I'd do it if I had a new one.

 

[Saluda]

No, never.

NOWAY!!!!!!!!!

Hmmm, I think it might be safe to say that atm, it looks as tho there's a selection with a slight lead in the poll responses....

Wouldn't want to put any money on the outcome just yet tho, there might be a late surge from one of the other alternatives?!? :dontknow: After all, it's sooo close!! :roflblack:

 

[ThreeWheels]

I was going to respond, but I'm speechless.
Either that, or what I was going to say would get me thrown off the board.
In any event. I just don't have the words........................

 

[SportsterDoc]

Some responses have indicated a willingness to let someone test ride...not the same as a rental to a stranger, nor the same as lending a spare to a trusted friend.

 

[wilpir]

Not a chance!!!

If you rent out your Spyder, you have to let your insurance company know and it will increase your rates. If you rent it without telling them, the renter has an accident and the insurance company finds out -- they will deny coverage. And if it's a serious accident, they WILL find out. It's a bad enough idea to loan your Spyder out to a friend, let alone rent it to someone.

Using your own vehicle for commercial use (renting or being a professional driver) changes the insurance company's risk calculation. This is why Uber and Lyft provide insurance for their drivers.

Those are serious considerations.
