Ride Safe, Not Sorry.

Siliguri is the gateway to the North East, and renting a bike is one of the smartest ways to explore it. But many riders, especially tourists, make simple yet costly mistakes when booking or riding a rental. At Bike Wale Bhaiya, we’ve helped thousands ride safe — and now we’re sharing key rental mistakes you must avoid.


Top Mistakes to Avoid

1. Not Checking License Validity

Ensure your driving license is original, valid, and physical. Expired or learner’s licenses are not accepted.
Check our FAQ for full document requirements.


2. Riding Without Helmet or Gear

Wearing helmet is mandatory by law. Always ride with safety gear, especially on hilly routes.
You’ll get 2 helmets + safety items free from us. You can also rent gloves, jacket, camera mount, and more – check Accessories.


3. Renting from Unregistered Providers

Avoid private number plate rentals or backdoor vendors.
These are not legal, especially for travel to Darjeeling, Sikkim, or permit zones.
All our bikes are commercially registered and covered under rental-use insurance.


4. Ignoring Fuel & Oil Level Agreement

Always note the fuel level and oil quantity while picking up the vehicle.
Bike Wale Bhaiya maintains transparency, but others may charge extra if not pre-agreed.


5. Booking Without Advance or Confirmation

During peak season, vehicles get sold out.
Use our Website or App to pre-book with minimum advance.


6. Choosing the Wrong Bike for the Route

Darjeeling or Gangtok roads need proper ground clearance and power. Avoid low-power scooters or older bikes.
Ask us — we’ll help you pick the right vehicle from:

  • Scooty (Activa, NTorq, Access) – ₹699/day

  • Standard Bikes (Apache, Pulsar, Avenger) – ₹999–₹1199

  • Premium (Classic 350, Meteor, Himalayan) – ₹1199–₹1499

7. Ignoring Emergency Support

Breakdowns can happen.
Make sure your rental provider has RSA and a 24x7 helpline — like we do at BWB.
Contact Us anytime — we’re always open.
