5 Gift Ideas For Father's Day – All Under $100

Father’s Day is this Sunday, June 19th, which means there’s not much time left to get dad something special. If you’re still struggling for ideas here are five that we have hands-on experience with and think dad will love.

Unless he's read our MC Tested evaluation (click here for our MC Tested review) on them, dad may well be pretty underwhelmed when he finds a set or Rok Straps behind the wrapping paper. But once he uses them he'll be a believer. These nylon and elastic straps are just what motorcyclists need to secure all kinds of cargo to the back seat. We love them, and dad will too. Rok Straps come in a variety of sizes, styles, and colors starting at about $22 a set. www.rokmotostraps.com

Tire pressure is too important to trust to a crappy pencil gauge. Dad deserves better! Motion Pro's digital tire gauge is accurate to within 0.6 PSI and has a backlit digital readout, machined-aluminum body with a high-volume pressure bleeder, and a swiveling hose with a brass chuck. It's a professional piece, and it's the gauge we rely on it the Motorcyclist garage. $99 isn't cheap, but cheap tire gauges are for gas stations. This is a premium tool that will provide years of service. www.motionpro.com

Is dad still wearing that threadbare BSA t-shirt he got when he bought his Bantam in college? Get him a bright new replacement (and tell him to hang the old one in the garage) from Metro Racing. Metro has a massive selection of classic marques including Ariel, Bultaco, AJS, BSA, Jawa, Hodaka, Greeves, CZ, and more, all for just $25 apiece. www.metroracing.com

Is dad a music lover? With the Braven BRV-1 bluetooth speaker he can take his tunes with him wherever he goes. The BRV-1 is built tough (it's shock and water resistant) and has a claimed 12-hour battery life. We've got one in the Motorcyclist garage and it has big, full sound and has proven durable enough to survive the rigors of shop life and several track outings. Pick one up for $80 and enjoy free shipping. www.braven.com

Every dad deserves a quality pocketknife, and Kershaw delivers. The Link is made in American and features a 3.25-inch partially serrated blade and SpeedSafe assisted opening that makes one-handed use a breeze. A "blackwash" finish gives this beast a bit of class and the machined-aluminum handle is perfect for engraving. Priced at $70, the Link (and all other Kershaw knives) comes with free lifetime sharpening. www.kaiusaltd.com
