Sharing details on multiple routes done in Bali in the past year. These are all easy trips on good roads that any rental scooter can do, each route requiring 1-2+ days of riding, with amazing stops along the way.
Bali East Loop (click to view more)
This is a great 2+ day trip that takes you up the east coast from Sanur to Candi Dasa, Amed/Tulamben, Lovina, and back though the famous lakes and temple. You get epic views and Mt Agung and can partake in some good diving, or just relax and eat and drink well in Amed and Lovina. It's a good step away from the over-toursited, chaotic south of the island.
I did Seminayak > Amed, Amed > Lovina, Lovina > Seminyak.
An awesome 2+ day path to "old-Bali", where toursist are few, culture runs deep, sights are awesome, and the pace of life is slow. If you'd like a fast getaway, some world-class diving, rides through rice terraces and around volcanoes, and great value, then you should get on your bike and ride. Form me, this trip was just two parts: Seminayak > Permuteran, Pemuteran > Seminyak - though I did it in a leisurely 5-days.
South Penisula Loop (update coming)
From Kuta area you can easily ride to some of Bali's most renowned locales in a single day, including Uluwata, Padang Beach, Pandawa Beach, Nusa Dua and Sanur. Traffic is more intense down here, but it's still well worth the ride.
Penida Loop
Technically part of Bali, Nusa Penida is well worth the trip for a solid moto tour. Rent a bike at the port and you're on your way. Penida has some world-class sights, epic roads, and incredible diving.
Rental
My travel plan started with a pre-arrival rental from my long-time scooter connect Pande at Bali Bliss. Terms were 2,500,000 rupiah per month for a Yamaha Aerox 155 (the same bike I had rented in April-May and rode from Bali to Flores and back). For part of my travels in Bali I carried my dive gear on some of these trips, and had a passenger on others. While I prefer the Nmax to the Aerox, either of these bikes are perfect for ripping nearly anywhere on the island.
