Zippy

City scooters include the Honda Click, GPX Drone, Yamaha NMAX, Yamaha Aerox and Honda ADV; the Honda Forza 300i is also offered.

Inspect and test-ride the bike, including its tyres, brakes and overall condition, before deciding to rent.

Self-ride trips to Chiang Dao and Pai are offered. Mechanical cover is limited to within 100 km of the shop, including on longer trips.

Zippy does not require a licence to rent. The renter remains responsible for fines and liabilities from unlicensed riding, which may also invalidate insurance cover.

Rental terms, damage and theft responsibilities, extra charges and basic hospital-cover conditions are available before booking.

Rental information and terms are emailed automatically on confirmation; the email also gives the rental return time.

Contact the rental team through Facebook Messenger or [email protected]. Ordinary communication is in writing, except for emergencies; Messenger is the fastest advertised channel.

Lost or damaged keys and helmets cost THB 500 each to replace. Damage charges include repair costs and rent until the bike is repaired.

Daily and weekly prices are available through the public date calculator. Longer-hire terms conflict between a two-week-rate basis and monthly proration; confirm the applicable rate before paying.

A THB 2,000 deposit applies to every model.

One-week rentals can have a lower daily-equivalent price; the quote depends on the model and rental dates.

Tyre costs are covered for the first 48 hours. Other mechanical issues are covered within 100 km of the shop if requested maintenance and inspections have been attended, excluding accident, crash and flooding damage. Beyond 100 km, the renter pays for repairs and transport.

The bikes are taxed and include mandatory hospital cover for the renter, subject to the insurer’s conditions.

Helmets are included with every rental. Lost or damaged helmets cost THB 500 each to replace.

Top boxes are listed as equipment on the GPX Drone, Yamaha NMAX, Yamaha Aerox, Honda Forza and Honda ADV rental options.

Luggage cannot be stored at the shop, without exceptions.

Mandatory hospital cover is included for the renter, but payment is at the insurer’s discretion and cover may be void for unlicensed riding, traffic-law violations or intoxication. Zippy disclaims responsibility for hospital bills, injury or death.

Contact Zippy before carrying out repairs or maintenance yourself or using another mechanic.

Damage is charged using a repair quote plus rent until repairs are finished. If you dispute the quote, the bike can be assessed by an official Honda or Yamaha dealer; unresolved disputes are referred to police.

The renter pays to repair or replace a damaged or stolen bike. Lost or damaged keys cost THB 500 each.

Raise unresolved questions with staff and ask them to involve the owners. Damage disputes proceed from a shop quote to an official Honda or Yamaha dealer quote, then police if unresolved.

Early-return refunds depend on the rental length and repricing of the completed hire. For longer rentals, confirm whether the two-week-rate or monthly basis will apply.

Extensions are prorated through the date calculator used by staff and the booking system. Confirm the pricing basis for longer rentals before extending.

Rentals run in 24-hour periods. Late return costs THB 50 per hour until the daily rate is reached; use the return time in the rental email.

Longer trips do not extend the mechanical-cover area: beyond 100 km of the shop, repairs and transport are the renter’s responsibility. Tyre cover ends after the first 48 hours.

Self-ride guides cover Pai, Chiang Dao, the Mae Hong Son Loop, the Samoeng Loop and Doi Inthanon, with route lengths and difficulty guidance.

Pickup is at 54/2 Santirak Road, Chang Phuak, Chiang Mai 50300.

Open every day, 09:00–19:00.

Return the bike during opening hours for inspection by a Zippy employee. Do not leave it at accommodation, outside the shop, with a friend or at the airport; responsibility continues until staff inspection.

Bicycles may be left at the shop, which has CCTV, at the owner’s risk; Zippy accepts no responsibility for theft or damage.

Staff speak English and welcome rental questions; unresolved questions can be escalated to the owners.
