Funny story...

Buddy of mine rented a RK in Salt Lake City. Guy told him it was $200/day(open to close of one day, basically) and $1000 deposit on a card. Now, if youre thinking that they would put a $1000 hold on your card and then take it off when you take the bike back, you are mistaken. He was told they CHARGE your card $1000, and after you take the bike back, it would be refunded in 7-10 business days. He told the guy he was crazy, and the guy said howabout give me a $500 cash deposit and I'll give it back to you when you turn the bike back in.

They did however give me a raincheck good at any of their locations, that I used in Ft. Lauderdale only to end up with another pos. From now on I will only rent from dealerships. I have had great luck (so far) with renting from dealerships.

. Guess it's different each time. Eagle picked me up in ft Lauderdale gave me a bike with 12 k on it ...its was fine. Next time 8 k not perfect but just running down to keys. Next time went to dealer Brandnew bike Had to take a taxi to get there. Jerked around 1 1/2 hours for what they say was a new bike. Lol 4 k and it was shot. Pure junk. Shi t t y service. So in fla. screw the dealer
