Default HD Rental question

I am going to be renting a bike here in the next couple of weeks and I have a question: Does the rental come with rain gear? I am flying to Texas and have limited luggage space and don't want to pack too much if I can help it. Thanks for all the info you can give. It's very much appreciated.

Depends on the dealer who you are renting it from, most have it available. Call and ask.

What do I get with my rental?
Along with your rented motorcycle, you’ll get an H-D® country-approved helmet, raingear, short-term luggage storage and 24-hour roadside assistance.

You're good...they outfit you pretty well, to protect their goodies.

Great thing about a rental is that there is no need to check the oil. You will still need to monitor tire pressure. Have fun.

I would take my own raingear and if necessary have it shipped to the dealer where you are renting the bike. That way you know you have rain gear that fits right and is comfortable for you.

I pack my rain gear in one of those bags you vacuum the air out of. Condenses to next to nothing.

We rented a Roadglide and a Limited during our family vacation in Myrtle Beach S.C. Yes, Rain Gear, maps, helmet, gloves with every rental. Plus they had passenger backrest with luggage rack, over impressed. Great dealer to rent from. Good luck and safe ride, Best, D

Myrtle Beach HD rental had them hanging on the wall, pick size, style, whatever color you like, try it on for fit and then pack away on your rental. Cool set-up.
