Honda XRE300 - A Baby Africa Twin
Get ready for an unforgettable motorcycle adventure in Colombia. Our Medellín motorcycle rentals are fully equipped, meticulously maintained, and ready for rugged terrain or relaxed city rides. With full gear, expert advice, flexible pickup, and adventure-focused upgrades, we make it easy to explore Colombia on two wheels.
We call our Honda XRE300 the “Africa Single” — a nickname earned for its adventure-touring capability in a slimmed-down, one-cylinder form. Lightweight, nimble, and reliable, this dual-sport motorcycle is ideal for Colombia’s mix of pavement, gravel, and remote jungle roads.
🔥 Air-Cooled = Fewer Breakdowns
Forget cracked radiators, failing thermostats, or complicated electronics. The air-cooled, fuel-injected motor on the Honda XRE300 is built for simplicity and rugged performance. With fewer parts to fail, this engine is ideal for Colombia’s heat, humidity, altitude, and long climbs.
Air-cooled motors are time-tested and trusted around the world — and for good reason. They’re easier to maintain, cheaper to fix, and more reliable when you're hundreds of kilometers from the nearest shop. It’s one less thing to worry about, so you can focus on enjoying the ride.
🪶 Lightweight = Safer Off-Road Riding
At just 153 kg, the Honda XRE300 is light enough to lift, push, or maneuver through rough terrain — especially important when exploring remote, off-grid areas. A lighter bike means less rider fatigue, easier recovery if tipped over, and lower risk of injury — all key advantages in Colombia’s wild and varied terrain.
This also makes city riding easier. You’ll have better control in traffic, can easily back it into tight parking spots, and enjoy a tighter turning radius than bulky adventure bikes.
🛠️ Mechanic-Owned Fleet = Fewer Surprises
Our entire fleet is owned and maintained in-house — no third-party rentals, no surprises. We’re riders and mechanics, and we’ve carefully chosen bikes that are built specifically for Colombia’s rugged terrain and unpredictable conditions.
Every motorcycle is serviced by our in-house team of certified mechanics — the same people who ride them. That means total quality control, reliable performance, and a faster response if anything goes wrong. You’ll never have to deal with someone else's beat-up rental.

My brother and I decided to do a solo tour. Jeff and his team did a fantastic job preparing the bikes and teaching us the different aspects of the trip. We rented 2 Honda XRE 300. Awesome bikes, perfect for the Colombian mountains and trails. We are planning on riding again, different route but we know now where to get the bikes.
