About Tasmanian Motorcycle Tours and Hire
Based in Riverside just outside Launceston, Tasmanian Motorcycle Tours and Hire offers two ways to ride the island: self-guided bike hire from a fleet of adventure and dual-sport machines, or fully guided multi-day tours that mix tarmac, gravel and off-the-beaten-track riding. The hire fleet is built around BMW GS models — the F700GS, F800GS, F850GS Rallye and G310GS — alongside a Kawasaki KLR 650, KTM 890 Adventure and Husqvarna 701, most fitted with ABS, heated grips and lockable panniers for real touring. Guided tours are run as immersive multi-day adventures with the bike supplied, premium accommodation, Tasmanian food and wine, and a support crew along for the ride. Riders consistently praise the quality of the machines, the riding gear and the clear communication through booking and planning.
