Top tips for renting a scooter in Bali

Aussies need to have a valid drivers licence to rent a scooter which is 50cc's or less (a valid motorbike licence is required for a bike over 50cc's). 

A helmet and appropriate safety gear must be worn at all times. 

Road rules must be followed. 

Keep an eye out for poor road conditions. 

Don't drink and drive. 

Rent from a reputable company, ask for a pre-rental damage report and take photos of the scooter before you give it back. 

Make sure to get travel insurance that covers you for riding scooters. 

Aussies can expect to pay up to $23,000 for a medical evacuation from Bali to Perth or Darwin if they don't have travel insurance.
