“The Best Motorcycle Gifts” is a totally subjective statement.  Subject, of course, to your opinion of the words “The Best”   There are all types of gifts you can give a biker ranging from a few dollars to thousands of dollars.  This is nothing you don’t already know.  What you are currently fighting with is: what do you give them this time and you are here looking for ideas.

This site is about finding the best motorcycle gifts for your specific motorcycle gift recipient!  The information given here is basic and written more for the non rider trying to buy the rider a gift but once you get through the basics this can even help a rider find their way towards the perfect gift.

So where do you start, a gift is by its very nature, a surprise.  If you haven’t tried it yet, spy.  Spy on them, talk to their biker friends, listen closely for little hints and try to develop a short list. Now see if there is something on that list that you can afford. 

If spying isn’t an option or you’re just not good at it, the following is a list of how to come up with and execute some motorcycle gift giving ideas.  Answer the next 10 questions as thoroughly as possible.

1)       What type of personality does your biker have? In other words if they were picking out a sun protection product would they get a 30 SPF cream called “Coppertone” or would they prefer a 30 SPF spray called “Red Neck Repellent”?

2)      Do they ride a Sport Bike (ride position is leaning over the bike, Racer type, Crotch Rocket, Ninja) or do they ride a Cruiser (ride position is upright, chrome headlights, speedometer on tank, floor boards)?

3)      Do they live for chrome or do they prefer colored parts or blacked out ones?

4)      Do they wear full leathers & a full face helmet or jeans, a t-shirt & a ½ shell helmet?

5)      Do they have tattoos & are they proud of them?

6)      Do they talk about how fast it’ll go or how pretty it is?

7)      Do they work on their own bikes or send it out for repairs?

      Do they take day trips or multi day tours?

9)      Are they male or female?

10)   How much do you want to spend?

The options are virtually limitless and mostly dependent on how much money you have to spend. Keep in mind if you are purchasing clothing and vehicle specific parts, you will need information.

Yes even gloves, sun glasses and helmets should be fitted. They are just like any other item of clothing, the actual size & fit depend on the manufacturer.  Sun glasses, did you say sun glasses?  Yes even sun glasses, if they are a little big they can blow off and if they’re too tight they will rub a sore spot above your ear.  If they have tattoos, sleeveless or tank top is probably the way to go.  The one great thing about clothes is, they are returnable and if you bought them over the internet or at a store the gift recipient will have a starting point from which to find the exact thing they want.

Motorcycle parts or accessories can be generic (one size fits all), type specific (cruiser / sport), brand specific (Harley, Honda, Victory) or model specific (Ultra Classic, ZX-14, VTX). You will need information to buy the parts. They can be easy to install or they can be a royal pain.  The most important thing here is the accuracy of your information.  Be prepared to answer questions like make, model, year, CC’s/CI, and options.   This is also a great time to know if your biker will work on things themselves or will they take it to a shop. If they are a shop repair / installation type person you might want to incorporate the installation with the gift.  Make sure whatever part you buy is able to be returned for a refund because a store credit may not offer a big enough selection.

 The easiest gifts to purchase for your biker are the generic ones.  These items take the least spying and usually less money than the above listed items.  They are the one size fits all type of product and once again your options are limitless: biker kits, helmet stick ons, patches, models, hats, bracelets, baseball caps, necklaces, motorcycle polish, earrings, decals, biker skin care, bifocal reader sunglasses, belt buckles, shoe jewelry, biker hand cleaner and biker pain relief products.
