Benelli 302S (300 CC)

Rent a Benelli 302S motorcycle from Kona Scooters for a nimble, affordable way to explore the Big Island. With a 300cc engine and standard clutch-operated transmission, this mid-range motorcycle offers enough power for highway riding and island exploration while remaining easy to handle for riders of varying experience levels.

Rental periods range from 4 hours ($100) to a full week ($735), with a standard day rental at $140. The motorcycle comes equipped with a digital display, DOT-approved helmets, lock, and passenger pegs - so you can bring a riding partner along.

Requirements: Must be 21 years of age or older with a valid motorcycle license (M1 endorsement). A debit or credit card is required. Pick up and return at Kona Scooters, 74-5484 Kaiwi St, Unit 1-A125 in Kailua-Kona.

The Benelli 302S is a great middle ground between the budget-friendly 50cc scooter and the larger Harley or Honda Fury options. It's fuel-efficient, easy to park, and capable enough to ride from the Kona coast through rainforest roads all the way to Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. Bring sunscreen and water, and review Hawaiʻi's motorcycle laws before heading out.
