The company aims to grow moto-tourism into a mainstream travel option.

Yukuto Oda关于Touring Routes · Roadside Stations的点评

This is genuinely happy news for me. The appeal of Japan's winding roads and roadside stations doesn't fully come across just by unfolding a map. You only really get it by actually riding it yourself. Overseas riders gripping their own handlebars and touring Japan — if that experience becomes a standard part of travel, nothing could be better. It makes me want to suggest where to ride next.

Expanding the bike rental business while the yen's weak might be a smart call, timing-wise.

Growing it into a travel staple is a nice goal, but how big the actual market ends up being is still an open question.

Isn't renting a bike in Japan as a foreign visitor complicated in terms of license requirements and procedures?

With an international license you should generally be able to ride, but displacement limits probably vary by rental company.

Curious just how large a scale Moto Tours Japan runs its tours at on its own.

Foreign visitors touring Japan's scenery by bike sounds like it could be a real spark for regional tourism.

With the weak yen as a tailwind, growth in inbound motorcycle tours makes total sense.

From an overseas perspective, Japan's well-maintained roads and safety must be a huge draw.
