At Easy Renter we set out with the lofty ambition of revolutionising motorcycle rental, our aim being to streamline the entire process. We want to make it easy and enjoyable for you to pick up and ride motorcycles across France and Europe.
Easy Renter’s idea emerged from some big questions…
In France, 48% of motorcycle licence holders don’t own a motorcycle. In a motorcycle market dominated by ownership, how could these riders get the most out of their motorcycle licences? How could we make motorcycles more accessible to bikers?
Those were the questions we asked ourselves in 2013. The answer (spoiler alert): motorcycle rental! It might not sound particularly sexy at first glance, but we were determined to provide a simple and reliable service.
It was time for Easy Renter to hit the road. We didn’t know how many miles we would need to travel, but we were ready for the biggest road trip of our life. From that moment on, our goal has remained the same: to make motorcycle rental easier across France.

No motorcycle rental in France in 2013
In 2013 there were a number of rental platforms and websites for property, cars and boats. But the motorcycle industry was seriously lagging behind in the new sharing economy, and motorcycle riders had no access to revolutionary rental services.
In western France (Brittany, Normandy, and the Pays de la Loire), there were only three active motorcycle renters in 2015 – pretty low for such a large geographic area. Today, on our platform, we have around 40 active renters.
So, how did it all begin?
Seeing how lifeless the French motorcycle rental market was in 2013, we asked ourselves the following questions:
Why is there so little enthusiasm for motorcycle rental in France?
Is it a lack of interest from riders or from entrepreneurs?
Following a survey of motorcycle professionals and motorcyclists, we realised that bikers were actually very favourable to the idea of rental. In fact, renting is actually easier than transporting your motorcycle on a trailer to wherever you’re going on holiday. Being able to try out new models for a full day is also appealing. Just over 50% of the bikers we surveyed saw themselves renting a motorcycle.
As for professionals, the results of the survey reflected the state of the market. It emerged that the reason motorcycle dealerships weren’t renting out motorcycles was not down to a lack of interest, but rather a lack of time and the fact that they couldn’t get insurance coverage for their motorcycles.
In conclusion, the demand was there, but administrative issues were holding entrepreneurs back.
Aware of the solutions that needed to be brought to the market, we created a first version of the Easy Renter platform in 2015 in Vannes, Brittany. Back then we had three renters. We recently opened an office in Nantes and we now work with more than 200 professionals throughout France.
Our philosophy
At Easy Renter our aim was to change how people ride motorcycles. The use of new technology improves communication and streamlines the relationship between motorcycle professionals, bikers and insurance providers.
With this in mind, we came up with a very specific set of corporate values:
Simplicity - The platform must work in the interests of everyone involved.
Innovative - Easy Renter must find new solutions to better meet the needs of motorcyclists and professionals in the industry.
Human - We believe that human interaction is essential to any business, but especially in the motorcycle community. Easy Renter will keep trying and pushing for the best possible human interaction between renters, riders, and our team..

Chakib a loué une Triumph Scrambler XE à Bordeaux
Super accueil de la part de l'équipe Zone Rouge. Moto irréprochable. Bicylindre coupleux, châssis agile à l'image d'un gros supermotard, qui n'oublie pas d'être bien équipé pour la route (poignées chauffantes, régulateur). Très bon rapport prix/prestation.
Alain a loué une Suzuki V-Strom 650 à Rouen
Tres tres bon service. A2 obtenu le samedi matin. Appel chez cottard pour connaitre la disponibilité. Chat facebook avec easy renter et location de la moto a compter du samedi : donc service tres efficace. Tres bon accueil de cottard. La moto etait neuve ( moins de 500 km). Tres bonne bonne machine et tres confortable. Je dois continuer mes essais mais elle fait deja partie de mon top 3.
George a loué une Kawazaki Versys 660 à Saint-Lô
Location d'un Kawa 650 pour 5 jours. Grande facilité de réservation. Moto en excellent état (environ 1600 km). Accueil en boutique au-dessus de la norme. Complète satisfaction. Je recommande sans réserve.
David a loué une Yamaha MT09 TRACER à Vannes
Très belle initiative que le site Easyrenter. Pour la première fois, j'ai pu louer une moto au travers du site. Du début à la fin de la procédure, tout c'est parfaitement passé avec surtout une véritable communication de l'équipe envers le futur client (comment ajouter une carte pour la prise d'empreinte, ....). Par ailleurs, j'ai reçu un mail pendant le trip moto pour m'indiquer que les conditions météo se dégradaient et qu'il fallait que je sois vigilant sur la route. En résumé, une semaine de trip moto qui s'est parfaitement bien déroulée, une communication parfaite et un grand choix de motos et de concessionnaires... Bravo à Easyrenter... Je suis déjà en train de regarder pour louer ce weekend.. Je vais aussi laisser un commentaire sur l'accueil de la concession yamaha de Vannes (Ploeren) qui a été parfait notamment au travers de Stéphane. Donc easyrenter + moto diffusion à Vannes m'ont permis de passer des vacances inoubliables...
Patrice a loué une KTM Duke 690 aux Sables d'Olonne
Bonjour, J'ai loué la KTM 690 Duke aux Sables D'olonne pendant 5jours. C'était un régal de la piloter cette katoche, une superbe équipe souriante et à votre écoute, à la récupération du véhicule le soir les papiers de la location étaient déjà prêts. Franchement au top, très sympa comme location. Je recommande fortement !
Thomas a loué une Yamaha MT07 à Cholet
Excellente expérience ! Du système de réservation sur la plateforme Easyrenter jusqu’à la récupération de la moto chez Ouest racing service. Excellent accueil sur place et les modalités sont très rapides (moins de 10 min, tout est déjà prêt). La moto était parfaite pour moi : équipée d’une ligne akrapovic, d’un shifter, elle roule au SP et bio éthanol (deux fois moins cher), et elle a d’excellents pneus ! Enfin le rapport prix / forfait kilométrique est très intéressant par rapport à d’autres. 100% satisfait. Je recommande.
