2024 Holiday Motorcycle Gift Guide

The holidays are now in full swing so it’s time to start getting serious about your gift-buying plans. Whether you’re in the market for a present that will knock their socks off, or are planning to buy them actual socks, we’ve got some great options below that will make any rider’s day.

Go real big with a gift that’s at the cutting edge of motorcycle safety gear technology. The Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 is an airbag vest that fits beneath just about any standard riding jacket, so is perfect for any rider, regardless of the bike they’re on. When the sensor system detects a crash, the airbag deploys in 20 to 40 milliseconds, offering a 95 percent increase in impact-absorbing protection when fully inflated. It operates using a lithium-ion battery that provides up to 30 hours of ride time before needing a recharge, and the Tech-Air app allows riders to keep tabs on all pertinent information including battery life and operational status. The Tech-Air platform has been in development for over 20 years and the Tech-Air 5 has been available to consumers since 2020. Plus, Alpinestars continues its work analyzing crash data and fine-tuning its sensor systems to ensure the highest levels of reliability and protection.

If you’re buying for a serious off-road rider, the Alpinestars Tech 10 Supervented Boots will be the hit of the holiday season. These premium-spec off-road boots provide race-ready protection and performance. They utilize five different foot shell compounds to provide superior impact and abrasion protection without sacrificing fit, flexibility, or function. They’re designed to be as lightweight as possible, and are super breathable thanks to numerous ventilation ports, perforated padding, a perforated footbed, and a breathable inner boot. The self-aligning, slim buckles are newly designed and offer an even more secure closure than before along with easy-open functionality. There’s a broad range of size and color/graphic options, as well. Definitely worth checking out.

Never run out of juice again with the Battery Tender Junior. This 12-volt, 800 mAh charger and maintainer is capable of powering up AGM, gel cell, lithium, and lead-acid batteries. It utilizes a float mode once a battery is fully charged to keep it at the right level without damaging or overcharging the battery. The compact design makes it easily portable, plus it’s spark-proof and comes with a five-year warranty.

If you’re buying for a rider who also enjoys time on a bicycle, consider grabbing the Bolt It On Bike Stand. The single-piece stand is made in the USA and this particular model is designed for ebike use. It utilizes an 8mm shaft that fits through the hollow crank spindle on either side of the bike, lifting the rear wheel to make maintenance and cleaning easier than ever.

The Boxo MotoBox is a phenomenal gift for riders who do their own wrenching.

Make motorcycle transport a breeze in 2025 with the Bed Buddy Motorcycle Tie Down Truck Rack from CCR Sport. This American-made rack is designed to fit in any trailer, truck, or van and is capable of anchoring any type of motorcycle you want to move.

The piece is TIG-welded steel that’s been powdercoated, and it comes with all the through bolt and blind fastener hardware needed for installation. CCR Sport makes different dimension Bed Buddys so you can find the perfect fit, regardless of the truck you’re aiming to outfit.

These socks are designed for colder temperatures, utilizing Dryarn hydrophobic and insulating fabric. They are designed with compression lines, have additional ankle support, and provide additional compression in the footbed. There’s also grip built into the sole so riders don’t have to worry about slippage inside their boots. Grab a couple of pairs and your favorite rider will be set for the rest of the winter riding season.
