2. Keep important papers

When parking in a public lot, do not lose the keeping service ticket. If you lose it, you will need to verify the ownership of the bike, which means contacting the place you rented the bike.

3. Get the rental shop contact details

This could be a lifesaver if your bike breaks down or in an emergency.

4. Make sure your helmet is in good order

If you feel it’s a bit musty, request a new one. If they refuse, head down to the next shop.

5. Anticipate your surroundings

Vietnamese drivers do not really use their wing mirrors so watch out for the traffic ahead of you. Also, slow down through intersections as stopping at a red is more like a guideline as opposed to a rule.

Local insight: While manual shift motorbikes go for VND 100,000 / day (~$5/day), automatic bikes will run you a bit more at around VND 120,000 / day (~$6/day).
