Motorcyclists have very specific requirements due to the nature of two wheeled motoring and these gadgets are the tops of the must have list for any biker!

#10 Hero Helmet Cam

With the miniaturization of video equipment, your helmet can now be your very own movie studio. The Hero Helmet Cam captures every sight you see and allows you to download to a variety of media, including YouTube. Just make sure you keep your eyes on the road and don’t show off as there are many YouTube helmet cam videos that end in crashes!

#9 Green Light Trigger

The road sensors which detect a vehicle and change the light to green are not sensitive enough to detect a motorcycle, thus bikers often get stuck at red lights that never seem to change. The Green Light Trigger is a powerful magnet that fastens to the undercarriage of your bike and creates disturbances in the electromagnetic field of the sensor that makes it think you’re astride a Peterbilt!

#8 Park-N-Move

If you have a tight garage or parking space you know what a hassle it can be to maneuver an 800 lb. motorcycle around, so now all you have to do is to place the Park-N-Move under your bike and just wheel it around with the ease of a shopping cart. It’s a must have for all tourer owners who want to stay free of hernias!

#7 X2 Communicator

This intercom system hooks up wirelessly to the side of your helmet, but the most amazing feature is that it has a five mile range: You and your passenger can actually be in different parts of town and still converse as if you were sharing a saddle. The perfect replacement for a cell phone on the road and no mobile charges!

#6 J&M Handlebar CB & Audio

You can have it all mounted right on your handlebars with a full control for CB radio as well as a passenger to passenger intercom, an NOAA weather radio, and a built in amp so you can plug in any audio source you want. Now you can chat with your sweetie in the back and a trucker over the next hill at the same time!

#5 Mix-It Audio

Although huge, expensive cruisers like Gold Wings and Road Glides have built in audio systems, most other motorcycles lack them, so Mix-It is the way to get the same tunes and features the big boys enjoy. You can connect multiple audio sources such as satellite radio, iPod, mp3, CD, even GPS and Radar Detectors which will override the music automatically. You can even feed your cell phone through to have a two wheeled entertainment and communications center!

#4 Chatterbox Motorcycle Alarm

It’s very difficult to sit back and enjoy a beer while you know you have $25,000 worth of motorcycle sitting outside, so the Chatterbox Motorcycle Alarm can be your bike’s best friend. If anyone as much as brushes up against your motorcycle the ear-splitting 110dB alarm will raise hell, the flashing lights will attract attention, and the starter kill will keep your bike safe right where you left it.

#3 Adaptiv TPX Radar Detector

Let’s face it, the whole reason to get a two wheeled vehicle that generates upwards of 150 brake horsepower is not to commute placidly at the speed limit, so the Adaptiv TPX Radar Detector provides wireless audio, visual alert, and even a sound system interface that will interrupt your blasting of Ride of the Valkyries to inform you that Smokey’s ahead.

#2 Acumen Digital Gear Indicator

With the super close gear ratios on today’s hyperbikes, you can’t be blamed for losing track of what gear you’re in. The Acumen Digital Gear Indicator’s simple plug in design is perfect for these bikes and features a bright LED display in your choice of colors, and the ability to indicate up to eight ratios. Now you’ll always know what gear to wheelie in!

#1 Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Tire pressure is far more critical when riding on two wheels than four, so this Tire Pressure Monitoring System is a great safety feature as it monitors the pressure of your tires while rolling through transmitter tire valve caps to a master unit that you can keep as a key fob or mount on near your instruments.

You see, the motorcycle is just the beginning… consider it a blank canvas for you to add all of these amazing gadgets to!
