I'll rent you my Busa for $80/day. No keys, you can sit on it, take pictures. You can still split the cost as many ways as you like -- maybe whoever looks fastest sitting on the bike can pay the bill?

My 690 supermoto would be very happy

which could end badly

GP bikes have a 2016 Hayabusa on their floor. Can just go click pics there for free lol.
Where did the video go that was posted earlier?

Just ride fast so they won't have time to even get out there! It's very tempting, smooth as silk pavement and practically zero traffic! LoL

How does harley do it?
Haha, they have the added benefit of also being a curbsider. (https://www.gtamotorcyclecourse.com/shop)
Once MTO catches on, it will be a swift kick in the nuts when the examiner refuses to let you ride the uninsured bike for your test.

Dealers have dealer fleet programs - they are very expensive, they run upwards of 10K/plate. There are a few others with fleets of exotic cars that can add motorcycles, they are paying facility rates for their fleet cars -- that's not recoverable in motorcycle rentals.
That's why you're not seeing to many dealers offering demo rides these days -- can't justify the insurance costs.
I was looking at starting with a small fleet of 300cc sport bikes and 300-650cc light adv bikes. Insurance for one year cost more than the bikes, imagine renting a bike for $99/day then finding out it needed mandatory insurance at $250/day with a $2000 deductible.
I even tried partnering with racing schools -- they pay less for insurance on their track rental bikes -- insurers say "not interested".
