9 gift ideas for motorcyclists

Finding a gift for a motorcycle enthusiast can quickly become complicated. Between equipment, accessories, and different types of motorcycles, it can be challenging to know what to choose if you are not familiar with the world of motorcycling. This article brings together nine useful and practical gift ideas that motorcyclists will truly appreciate, whether they are designed to improve comfort and safety or offer a genuine two-wheeled experience.

A gift card to rent a motorcycle

Giving a Good Motors gift card is much more than just a gift—it's a complete motorcycle experience. It gives access to motorcycle rentals in France, with a range of engine sizes, including 125cc, A2, and large engines, in many French cities such as Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Nice, Toulouse, Bordeaux, and Montpellier. It's a great way to test a model before buying, discover a different category of motorcycle, ride without owning a motorcycle, or go on a weekend road trip. The card is flexible, can be used online, and is suitable for all types of motorcyclists.

A pair of heated gloves

Cold weather is one of the main obstacles to enjoying riding. Heated gloves keep your hands warm on long journeys and improve safety by maintaining good sensitivity to the controls. There are battery-powered models that are self-contained and easy to use, as well as models that plug directly into the motorcycle. The price range is generally between $150 and $350 depending on the technology, materials, battery life, and level of protection. If you're looking for a gift, this is a sure bet!

A GPS tracker designed specifically for motorcycles

For motorcyclists, their bike is often much more than just a vehicle. With theft on the rise, a GPS tracker is a gift that is both reassuring and useful. Some models require a subscription and offer real-time tracking and alerts, while others do not require a subscription and have a longer battery life but simpler features. The tracker is usually placed under the seat or in the fairing, with a battery life ranging from several weeks to several months.

A special backpack for motorcyclists

A backpack designed for motorcycling offers real advantages in terms of comfort and safety compared to a conventional backpack. It reduces wind resistance, stays securely in place, and provides better back protection. Some models feature waterproof materials, rigid shells, or back reinforcements. Prices generally range from $80 to $250, depending on the features.

A wall-mounted helmet holder

Motorcyclists often invest in a high-quality helmet. A wall mount allows them to store it neatly indoors while showing it off. It's a practical and attractive gift that prevents the helmet from being left on the floor and allows it to be displayed as a decorative item. Prices generally range from $24 to $72.

A subscription to a motorcycle magazine

There are magazines for all types of motorcyclists, covering topics such as testing, travel, sports, competition, motocross, and adventure. A subscription is a lasting gift that will accompany the motorcyclist throughout the year, to be kept and stored as a reminder of the good times! Prices vary depending on the frequency of publication, with subscriptions generally ranging from $35 to $95 per year.

A phone holder for motorcycles

Few motorcycles are equipped with built-in GPS. A phone mount is therefore essential for using GPS safely. It allows you to keep your hands on the handlebars and your eyes on the road. There are different types of mounts available: waterproof covers, dedicated shell mounts, and anti-vibration systems. Prices generally range from $35 to $150.

An aerodynamic bubble or protective extension

Improving wind protection transforms riding comfort, especially on roads and highways. A windshield or extension reduces fatigue, noise, and neck strain. It is a gift that is greatly appreciated by motorcyclists who ride regularly or over long distances. Prices vary depending on the model and motorcycle, generally ranging from $60 to $200.

A motorcycle puncture repair kit

A flat tire can quickly ruin an outing or road trip. A tire repair kit allows for quick and easy repairs on the side of the road. Easy to carry and use, it offers real peace of mind. Kits cost between $20 and $50 on average and can literally save a trip.

What gift should you give a motorcyclist for every occasion?

A birthday

For a birthday, go for a memorable gift: a motorcycle gift card, leather jacket, high-end helmet, comfortable seat, dash cam, or riding course to combine pleasure with skill development.

Valentine's Day

Choose an experience to share: a weekend motorcycle trip for two, renting a dream bike, a track day, a gourmet getaway, or a road trip package to create memorable moments together.
