Best spot to rent a motorbike in Alanya

Father
Alright folks, I am heading to Alanya soon and want to grab a bike to cruise the coast instead of being stuck in buses or taxis the whole trip. Anyone done this before and got any tips so I do not end up with some clapped-out scooter or a dodgy rental agreement?

Honestly nothing beats having your own bike there, you just point the front wheel wherever looks interesting and go, no waiting around for dolmus timetables or haggling with cab drivers who spotted a tourist from a mile away. The coast road stretching out towards Gazipasa is a gorgeous ride with the sea on one side and mountains creeping up on the other. Plenty of places let you rent a motorbike right in Alanya itself, just browse what is listed here https://getrentacar.com/en-US/motorcycle-rental/turkey-alanya .

Check the tyres and brakes yourself before you even put the key in the ignition, some bikes sit in the sun all season and the rubber is shot, which is the last thing you need on a sharp turn.
