Before you rent your scooter, you should know what’s out there.
Scoopy: These are the pretty scooters and they’re super light and easy to drive. They aren’t all that powerful as they only have a 110cc engine, but they look good and are often the cheapest you can get.
Vario 110cc: I’d classify this at Scoopy level but more “masculine”. These Bali scooters don’t have a lot of vooma but they get the job done and are better suited for driving around the area where you’re staying, as opposed to long distances.
Vario 125cc: This is more powerful than the above two. I rented a Vario 125cc scooter for my Bali road trip and it was perfect. But, if you’re 2 people on the scooter and you’re driving pretty far (like I did when I drove from Bali to Red Island in Java), you will start to get uncomfortable after a few hours of driving and there’s not much storage space under the seat.
NMax: The NMax has a 155cc engine and is the best Bali scooter rental out there. It’s got lots of power and plenty of space under the seat. Also, it’s super comfy! However, it may be a bit too heavy for those who haven’t driven a scooter before.
