Harley Davidson Tours in Northern Thailand
I was feeling a little bit bored this week and decided, heck, why not go for a ride around beautiful Chiang Mai? After driving around to multiple motorcycle rental places I was a bit frustrated. All of the ‘choppers’ as they refer to them here in Thailand were the expected Japanese knock-off of foreign cruising bikes, which wasn’t an issue. The engine size however was an issue. They were almost all 250cc! That’s barely enough power to carry the extra weight a large cruising bike carries let alone chug my big body up a mountainside with ease!
Out of my frustration came a memory of a Harley rental service I read about. I quickly pulled up their website, Harley Tours Thailand and contacted the owner who promptly arranged to show me the stable of hogs available to me. Now we’re talking! I’ll take one of those 1400cc+ Harley Davidson Fat Boys! This was my first time driving an actual Harley and the feeling you get when you hear those pipes howling and the sheer torque beneath you is inexplicable. If riding a true Hog isn’t on your list of Things To Do Before I Die, add it, now!
While I am just renting the bike for a few days Harley Tours Thailand, as the name suggests, specialize in off the beaten path tours to places most tourists only see on the National Geographic channel. Look them up, tell them what you’re after and they’ll make something up for you that is sure to be a permanent memory.

To reiterate, they have well kept Harley Davidson motorcycle rentals in Chiang Mai. Don’t get intimidated by the giant Hell’s Angel looking guy who runs it, he’s cool as hell!
