The fleet · Honda ADV 160

Honda ADV 160 rental
in Chiang Mai.

The biggest bike we rent, and the one to take up a mountain. Ours is black, with a phone holder already fitted.

Honda built the ADV 160 as a scooter with adventure-bike manners: a tall screen, long-travel suspension, a 14-inch front wheel and 165 mm of ground clearance. On the climb up Doi Suthep, out to Samoeng or round the Mae Rim loop, that combination matters more than the spec sheet suggests. Broken tarmac and speed humps that unsettle a small-wheeled scooter barely register.

It is also the easiest of our three to ride two-up, and the 8.1 litre tank means fewer fuel stops on a long day out.

Who it suits

Take the ADV 160 if you plan to get out of the city regularly, if you are riding with a passenger, or if you are tall enough that smaller scooters leave you folded up. If you will mostly be crossing the Old City and squeezing into tight sois, the Click 160 is the easier bike, and cheaper.

These are Honda's published figures for the Thai-market ADV 160, not measurements of our own bikes.

What's in the price

• Free delivery and pickup - anywhere in Chiang Mai, at a time that suits you.
• ABS on every bike - anti-lock brakes as standard, so a hard stop on a wet road won't lock the front wheel.
• Two helmets - so you can take someone with you from day one.
• A phone holder - fitted to every bike we rent, so you can navigate.
• Servicing handled - oil, tyres, the lot. Our job, not yours.
• A backup bike - if anything goes wrong you get a replacement, not an excuse.
• Basic insurance - included in the rate.
• English support - a real person on WhatsApp who actually answers.
