Hiring a Sports Bike

I have always wanted to own a Sports Bike (from way back!!) but after the birth of my daughter I started to rethink the idea. I did not want my daughter to grow up without a father because he died in a motorcycle accident. I know there are a million ways to die, but given the quality of the so called Kenyan drivers, a motorcycle death always seems like a heart beat away. Topic for another day. Anywho, I want information on where I can rent a sports bike to have a feel of it and see if I have over imagined the risks (hoping I don't die during the "experiments") before I set aside resources for buying one. I once in a while buy something that I use for a while then get bored/tired of it. I wouldn't want that thing to be a Sports Bike worth hundreds of thousands. Kindly give me information on where I can rent a sports bike, rates, any additional requirements etc. Thanks in advance. Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Way ahead of you pal!!! Mine is actually a 3 stage process. 1) Boda Boda type motorbike (Available at a stage near you. Pay passenger rates or rent the bike for the whole day for 500/= ; own fuel) 2) "Semi - Sports bike" - A high performance bike tending towards a Ducati but not quite a Ducati. Courtesy of a friend of mine. 3) A sports bike!!! And this is where I need the assistance of Wazuans! You seriously imagine I would ride a Ducati as my first bike?? Are you kidding me!? Like a Ducati999 is 1,000cc. That's a vitz engine on a bike - with much less weight and one passenger! That would kill you if you didn't know what you are doing! Even Valentino Rossi couldn't pull that off!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

But the similarities with kawaida motorbikes ends at the fact they both have two wheels. A sports bike has the power of ten bikes plus combined, high performance features and parts, is bigger, heavier, "harder" to control etc. See one below.  Never count on making a good sale.
