Default Eaglerider rentals

Has anyone used Eaglerider? I have a chance to fly to Las Vegas rent a bike, ride to San Jose and fly back 220.00 for the ticket and about 460.00 for 4 days on the bike.
Do they have decent equipment?

I have to get out of here for a few days weather is supposed to be -20 in the next week.

DON'T DO IT, Matty!!!!!

You know you will jus' come back to that frozen block o' cheese, and then you'll only be mo' pizzed.








In reality, the 'rest o' us' stuck up here will jus' be jealous. BUT I do have a lonnnnnng memory, and I do plan on crossin' Cheeseland to git to the "POSER M & G" down at PT's. So 'caution' postin' pics, is the word here.

Hear ya on that -20 crap. I am jus' hopin' we do not have to cycle thru ALL that unGodly cold, they are having up in central Alaska. That'll REALLY make it a long azzt winter. Good ol' Farmer's Almanac said "cold and snow" this year. Lookin' like they might be right.

Good luck, and have a FUN ride.

Never did the "fly n ride" deal with Eaglerider, but did rent a RG for a day from them in LA a few years ago when I was in on business. (stayed over a day and a half to ride the coast as it was winter cold here)

Would do it in a heartbeat if it were me and I had the time and $$ to go!

BTW......was in Vegas a few months ago and stopped in the bigger of the two HD dealers to get the obligatory t-shirt.

Dealer I was at was large and had a very big rental business going. They were in and out all the time in the 45 mins I was there, had lots of rentals lined up prepping to go. If it is the same one, it appears to be a big part of there dealership, doubt they would be looking to trip anyone up on purpose.

I've rented from them twice. I rented an 07 RK with frickin loud pipes and an 07 EGC with a dent in the fuel tank. The radio on the EG did not work, I took it back and got a different one. They do have some real nice bikes. You just need to check out your ride, because they are rentals with high mileage with Florida tags

I've rented from Eagleriders three times.

I rented a Night Train, A Road King and a Dyna Wide Glide.

All three bikes were in great shape and I hope to do it again sometime.
