A motorcycle condition report will be made by an authorized mechanic before and after each rental. Any damages or mistreatment concluded and quoted in the return damage report are final and provide the basis for a possible charge to the Renters credit card.

12. RENTERS LIABILITY

The Renter must ensure that they are legally entitled to drive a motorcycle. A valid license must be presented by the Renter. This license must be valid in the countries where the Renter will ride the motorcycle. The Renter is responsible for all fines, penalties and legal fees for traffic violations or other breaches of the law during the rental period of the motorcycle. Motolombia is authorized to charge the Renters credit card for any penalties and fines that occur during the rental and can deliver the identity and other personal information regarding the Renter to the local authorities if asked to do so. An administration fee of $50 USD will be charged in connection with every traffic violation, plus the cost of the fine.

It is the Renters responsibility to ensure that the rented motorcycle:

a)  Shall be used according to manufacturer’s recommendations b)  Shall be used in full respect of highway codes of the countries in which it is ridden c)  Shall not be used negligently d)  Shall not carry more passengers than the approved capacity allow e)  Shall not be used for racing or competition f)  Shall not be used for illegal purposes g)  Shall not carry more weight than allowed.h)  Shall not be used by anyone except by Renter stated in the rental contract i)   Shall not be used if the mechanical condition is deemed unsafe j)   Shall not be used after consumption of illegal drugs or alcohol or other substances that could affect mental state of the rider l)   Shall not be used when the Renters physical conditions are weakened by fatigue, injury or illness.

13. INSURANCE

Mandatory Liability insurance is included in the rental in all countries where such insurance is required. In Colombia the mandatory liability insurance SOAT covers injuries to rider, passenger or third party in connection with the motorcycle. It does not cover 3rd party property, nor damages or theft of the rental motorcycle.

In addition to the included mandatory 3rd party insurance, an Optional Motorcycle Damage and Theft Liability Reduction Insurance is available that will limit risk towards loss, damage and theft of the rental bike during the entire trip.

There is no reason to pay double if you are already covered. We recommend that you check with your own insurance company first to find out if your Travel Insurance or Personal Property Insurance already covers damage and theft of rental vehicles. Some Credit Cards also offer good coverage for such incidents if you pay the rental using your Credit Card.

How does the Optional Motorcycle Liability Reduction Insurance work?By purchasing the Optional Motorcycle Damage and Theft Liability Reduction Insurance for $25 USD/day you can limit your responsibility towards loss, damage or theft of the rental motorcycle to a set deductible value that is equal to approximately 10% of the commercial value of the motorcycle in Colombia.

Size of the deductibles:

• Honda CB500X = $1,000 USD
• Yamaha XT660R = $1,000 USD
• BMW F700GS = $2,000 USD
• BMW F800GS = $2,000 USD
• Honda Africa Twin = $2000 USD
• BMW R1200GS LC = $3,000 USD

If you decline this insurance you are responsible for the full value of the motorcycle and all expenses including, but not limited to, recovery, loss, damage or theft of the bike. In case of loss, damages or theft of an insured rental motorcycle and/or accessories, the Optional Motorcycle Liability Reduction Insurance will cover expenses that exceed the deductible. The insurance does not cover recovery of the bike in case of un-repairable damages made to the bike and the Renter is solely responsible for all costs involved with returning a damaged bike to Motolombia in Colombia. Motolombia will go above and beyond to help recover damaged bikes at as low cost as possible and often at no cost at all if on tour with a support truck.

The insurance reduces, but does not eliminate responsibility for damage or theft and it will not protect you if you provide fraudulent information, use the vehicle in connection with conduct that could be properly charged as a felony, drive under influence of drugs or alcohol, reckless driving, use the vehicle in a speed test or contest, or if the vehicle is driven by a person other than the driver authorized on the contract. The Renter must comply with all terms and conditions in the rental contract and local laws. Police or other authorities might demand a blood test in connection with an accident. Result there of might be used by the insurer to determine insurance settlements. Personal and third party property is not covered by this insurance.

14. ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT

Optional accessories such as helmets, luggage systems, tank bags and other riding equipment are not covered by the insurance. The cost to repair or replace due to damage, loss or theft will be sustained by the Renter.

15. CONSUMABLES

The motorcycle will be delivered by Motolombia with tires, brake pads and the general maintenance in perfect conditions ready for normal use. In the case of rental periods longer than 7 days the Renter is responsible for checking the oil level and brake pads and notifying Motolombia in case of excessive wear.

16. MECHANICAL FAILURE

In the case of a mechanical failure, you must contact Motolombia immediately stating your location accurately and with detailed information about the failure. If repair is necessary and possible, you must obtain Motolombia’s consent before making any repair. If repair is not possible, Motolombia will seek to replace the damaged motorcycle at the earliest possible opportunity. If for any reason the replacement is not possible, Motolombia shall reimburse you for the rental days not enjoyed. In the event of mechanical failures caused by falls, accidents or negligent use, Motolombia is not responsible for replacing the motorcycle or any reimbursement or recovery of immobilized motorcycle.

17. PROCEDURE IN CASE OF INJURY OR ACCIDENT
