Beat the Evaporative Fuel Nozzles and top off your tank with relative ease with this lightweight, 1/8” thick, credit card sized tool. Durable ABS plastic prevents damage to the paint finish on your fuel tank. Unique teardrop shaped cut-out allows sliding over gas nozzle to depress and hold back the EFN boot while adding fuel to your tank. Won't slip off either. Works for filling gas cans too. Even if you don't live in a state with these booted nozzles, sooner or later you'll need one of these. Fits easily in your wallet, jacket pocket or tank bag. Prevents fuel filling frustration. 3.3"×2.2".

If you’ve ever encountered the charmingly termed “evaporative recovery nozzles” at gas stations, you know what a semi-spastic wrestling match with one of these flammable-spewing horses appendages can be like. All you’re trying to do is refuel your motorcycle, right? However, for those of us so afflicted, this nozzle key artfully retracts the corrugated... forepart of said alloy proboscis and allows you to gas your bike with a minimum of fuss and splatter.

‘Hey Rocky, watch me pull a poodle outta my hat…Rocky? Rock…AHHHH someone squished my squirrel friend under a motorcycle!’ These ‘roadkill’ kritters keep the bike upright with style. A durable 4" disk sidestand insert keeps the kickstand from melting into hot asphalt or sinking into soft dirt. Furry fabric is fully washable…or not, if a real road-grimed appearance is desired. A functional, furry mascot for the next parking lot, roadside stop or rally. Choose Zombie or Pancake Poodle. Approximately 9"×7"× Flat.

Sheepskin cushions, cools and lets air circulate. When it’s sticky hot, you’ll sit cooler. And when it’s freezing, sheepskin is warm and comfy. Between extremes it’s always luxurious. Sheepskin has long been used by those who sit for extended periods because of how it cushions and vents.

These are luxurious top grade sheepskins, laminated with an Aerostich-exclusive, non-skid 3⁄16" PVC foam mesh base, so they won’t creep around on your saddle, even if you ride aggressively. They also won’t hold or absorb much water. Saddle sheepskin pads help you stay more comfortable, refreshed and alert on long rides. Each pad features eight strategic bungee attachment points, two lengths of adjustable bungee, and four no-scratch nylon hooks for a custom installation. Made in America.

Note: Not recommended for use on leather saddles.

Small enough to take on all your road trips, these pack into a built-in self-storing pocket about the size of your hand. Overall, it’s half the size of the next smallest full-coverage cover because it’s made from a thinner, lighter fabric. The strong opaque 2 oz siliconized ripstop nylon is plenty tough and keeps water and dust off your bike... it’s widely used in parachutes, sailboat spinnakers, kites and skysails.

The integrated elastic cinch cord tightly snugs all covers close to your bike so it won’t blow off during a breeze, and additional grommets allow for further binding or tying down. The Aerostich label is purposefully placed at the front bottom center, right on the hem, so it’s easy to find the front of the cover.

For improving overnight security at the seediest, darkest motel parking lot, the self-storing pocket on the hem of the cover also doubles as a portable battery powered motion-detecting alarm holder, to scare the pants off of whoever wants to take a peak at what’s below.

Large size covers loaded GS1100’s, Gold Wings and other dreadnought sized machines. Medium fits all sportbikes, standards, dual sports, and sport touring bikes with smaller windshields. Small fits scooters. Seat Saver model fits all bikes, covering vital areas of instrument pod, handlebars, gas tank and seat. Black.

Made from 2oz/sq yd silicone coated Cordura® 33d ripstop nylon.

Total overall dimensions:
Large #1735 - Length 177.5" x Width 136"
Medium #1733 - Length 154.5" x Width 129.5"

Weather resistant storage for...Ahem…uh…whatever you might want to carry unobtrusively concealed. Perfect for registration materials or travel documents that you need secure yet accessible, and perhaps the spare hidden key. Sized to work with all standard size license plates on most motorcycles. Mounts either lock up or lock down — you choose. Includes all mounting hardware and two keys. Tough injection molded polypropylene and about 1" thick. 7"×4".

Stay oriented on every ride with this compact, made-in-Japan magnetic ball compass. Crafted from durable cellulose acetate, aluminum, and ABS resin, it’s easy to mount at any angle and gives you a quick read on direction while touring. For best accuracy, install away from iron parts or electronics to avoid magnetic interference. Size: 35×42×46mm.

The simpler, easier-to-use twist grip cruise control. It’s a single piece of shaped acrylic plastic that springs open and slips right onto any throttle grip. You can rotate it forward 360°—yet when a downward pressure is applied it stays perfectly in place without squeezing. This is the original cruise control. Its still-unique design makes it the easiest one to use. Made in America

Additional Information/Resources:

An amazingly clever, simple solution to relieve wrist fatigue on long rides. Installs over any throttle grip in seconds, no tools required. The patented smart-clip tension design locks easily into place against the brake lever to maintain your cruising speed, without the need to hold the throttle. Disengaging is as easy as returning the throttle to a closed position or giving the brake lever a squeeze. High-mile rides just got a little more comfortable. Two sizes: Small (7/8", for Street and Sport Bikes), Large (1", for Cruisers). Black.

Additional Information/Resources:

These license plate holders state clearly 40, 50, 60, or 70 MPG followed by the popular phrase “one less car,” or more boldly “THIS IS MY CAR.” A 7.5"×5" durable plastic backing with drilled holes for mounting, the lettering is 0.65" high. Specify 40, 50, 60, or 70 MPG, THIS IS MY CAR, RIDE EVERYWHERE or RIDE EVERYDAY.40, 50, 60, or 70 MPG or THIS IS MY CAR #3396 $5.00 Ride Everywhere #3419 $5.00 Ride Everyday #3420 $5.00

These are very bright. Red versions (solid or flashing) make nice added tail or brake lights, white lights enhance visibility as an auxiliary running light. The reason to use the brake light version is obvious. The reason to add one to the front of your motorcycle isn’t….and is this: Not for roadway illumination, but to make your approach more obvious to those ahead. Why? Because anything unusual stands out. Locating one of these, always-on, next to a front turn signal or beside a headlight turns the usual head-on appearance of a motorcycle into something slightly irregular, thus more clearly standing out from amongst the rest of traffic. Rain and weather proof. Machined aluminum bodies. Includes ‘L’ mounting bracket. Sold in pairs. 1.18” x .8". 3W, 12V. Choose Solid White, Solid Red or Flashing Red.

Note: The wires connecting to the micro-circuit board inside the aluminum light housing are fairly small. We recommend adding 'silicone seal' to the hole in the light housing the wires pass through to provide strain relief and lessen the chance of a wire breaking in use.

This matchbook-sized unit allows you to accurately monitor ambient humidity and temperature at the same time on its easy-to-read oversized display. Can stand on its own or stick to any surface with included double-stick tape. Operates on one watch battery (included). Really fun to see the humidity slowly increase from many miles away to 90% or more as you approach rain. Note: not "extreme waterproof" unless modified. (Disassemble, silicone seal.) 2"×1.5"×.6", 1 oz.

After a great trip you wash the bike and There It Is: big, rubbed-right-through-the-paint dull area, ...right where your pack, straps, and bungees went. ($$$, sh_t.) This anti-slip, padded, cut-to-fit foam covered mesh can save your bike’s paint from a thousand abrasions or scratches on your next trip. The most carefully loaded duffels and soft bags can ‘walk’ due to road and engine vibrations. Place this durable 3/16” thick reinforced pvc mesh between your bags, bungees and bike bodywork for maximum protection and increased load security, no matter how rough the road conditions. If you can predict a problem, you can prevent it. This versatile stuff is also great as a tool drawer liner in the workshop, an anti-skid sheet on a dashboard, or a vegetable bin liner in the fridge. Very durable, too. Black. 24” x 36”.

Whip it out for high performance on hot asphalt. The CFSP looks and works better than a flattened can, which is never around when you need one anyway. Stiff and light, the Carbon Fiber Sidestand Plate is about the same dimensions as a pack of cigs (but thin), so it will fit into your pocket with room to spare. Included is a natty Aerostich Ultrasuede carrying sleeve that protects you from earthen parking lot dirt. The sleeve may be attached to the inside of your bike’s fairing so it’s always at the ready. 4"×2.5.

This is a full-power railroad locomotive/ocean liner type compressed air horn squeezed into a bike-mountable package. Totally overkill, until you need to wake up some lethal driver. It’s got both the high and low ear-splitting tones of the individually sold Fiamm Freeway Blaster Horns, plus a little more oomph. The 140dB high and low tone blasters combine via air induction to cut through the din and make the most distracted of drivers drop their cell phones and pay attention. Installs easily on all bikes with a 5.25"×3.25"×4.5" space for mounting. The loudest motorcycle horn available. If Ethel Merman, Sam Kinison and John Philip Sousa ever had a band, and played through a wall-of-sound amp rack, it would sound like this. Includes 12V/30A relay. 12V. 20A. 1 lb 12 oz.

Ear Cannon Sound:

They’re not kidding about the “Blaster” part. This horn generates a shattering 132 decibels and will likely get just about anybody’s attention, even if they happen to be ensconced in a giant SUV with a phone glued to their ear. And that, of course, is a good thing...we all know that stock motorcycle horns are at times rather underwhelming. Fix all that and let ‘em know you’re there with this important safety device. Available in High and Low tone versions. If you are using only one, go with the low tone. 12V. 10A. 3.5"×3.5"×2.5".

A simple back-to-back tape, hook on one side, loop on the other, laminated together into an infinitely useful strip. Like double stick tape, when you wrap it around something and then back on itself, it sticks, and also un-sticks and re-sticks over and over. Retains ample shear strength. Could you find a use for this stuff? Thought so. Can be easily cut to different widths and lengths without unraveling. Wonderful for securing radar/gps type things to mounting brackets and for strapping down wires and cables as a re-usable zip tie, but thousands of other uses, too. Features HTH 888 and 889 types, with the world famous style 22 hook. Two kinds (both black, both 1""×36""): Standard is thinner and more flexible (but slightly less strength), or Heavyweight is thicker, bulkier (but stiffer/stronger) for bigger and heavier stuff.

This will save your ass on long, hard rides. It’s purpose-built for your butt, but also works great in underwear and everywhere that is sensitive to chafing, burning, reddening rashes. More than a re-packed drugstore talc or a baby powder, this proprietary formula eliminates getting painfully chafed, raw and rashy during sweaty butt-busting activities. It also provides an immediate ‘aaaahhh-oooohhh’ skin relief on (or after) tough rides. Good for motorcyclists, truck drivers, off road and road drivers, bicyclists, etc., whenever your butt takes a pounding all day. Convenient 1.5 oz. Travel Size.

A self-priming fuel transfer system. No matter where you are, this ultra compact system won’t leave you stranded for long. Throw away that length of gnarly old hose and safely siphon fuel from any gas-powered device without getting a mouthful of gas.

This is one siphon that doesn’t suck. Simply insert the self-priming end into any non-empty gas tank, and put the other end into the transferring container/carrying case (that works a heck of a lot better than a crinkled Mountain Dew can). A few up and down motions and you’ll be siphonin’ away. The handy stopper clip maintains siphoning even when in the “off” position, so there’s no need to begin the process all over again between container transfers to your tank. The included super soak towel quickly cleans up any excess spills and everything fits neatly back into the transfer container/carrying case. Carrying case is 10.1"×2.6"×1.25" and holds 1/8 gallon of gas. Siphon is 68" long. Entire system weighs less than 4 oz.

Retro-cool precision in solid brass and steel, based on the Universal Equinoctial ring sundial used by ancient sailors and mathematicians. The outer and inner rings pivot and adjust for accuracy and fold flat for easy transport in a pocket. Beautifully engraved numbering and lettering finished with a black ink coating make it easy to read and give this instrument a timeless appearance. Can be used around the world to quickly and accurately indicate the local solar time, and also functions as a sun compass and a model of the world.

You really don’t need one of these, but pulling it out at the campsite or rest-stop will seriously trump all of the latest modern digital farkles and draw both smiles and an audience wanting to see how it works. Beautiful to handle and satisfying to use. (Excuse me, do you have the time? Why yes, I do.) Fusion-reactor powered. Includes instruction manual. 2.36" diameter. 1.4 oz.

Attaches to the crossbar on dual sport bikes with side release buckles. Clear on both sides: flips over for twice the viewing area. Unique design folds out of the way or detaches with gloves on, and does not flap in the wind. The world’s best way to carry a map. Small only (7.7"×6").

A flexible, adhesive, wrap-around heating element with printed-circuit-type elements that fit between the handlebar and grip, keeping your digits from turning into frozen turkey feet during cold weather rides. These have been a popular way to make any bike more all-season rideable for years. Installation is DIY easy, and there are plenty of YouTube tutorials to follow online. Includes two heating elements, wiring, resistor (for hi-low function, and an on/off, hi/lo switch. Effective way to have warm hands, which helps the rest of your body be warmer, too.  A great comfort as well as a safety enhancer. For 12V systems. On "hi" they draw only 2 amps and make 27-29 watts of hand-warming heat. Installation takes only about an hour on most bikes.

The 62" black nylon utility cord loops over the left grip to eliminate bending to retrieve. When you’re ready to go, just reel it in while comfortably saddled. Includes a “Remove Before Flight” ribbon so you’ll never accidentally leave it behind. Same black ultrasuede storage bag as the CFSP. Made in USA

Features

• Ultra-light and ultra-strong Carbon fiber.
• Parachute cord with hand-grip loop makes it easy to pull it up after you mount the bike.
• Red ‘remove before flight’ flag to remind you to pull it up before taking off.
• As ridiculous as you can imagine, but despite that, it works well.
• Looks cool, sells poorly, so you’ll probably never see another at any moto-gathering event.

12V, 40A Bosch-type relay for use with high amp draw electronic accessories like big driving lights, extra loud horns, double sided arm jesters, etc. Waterproof sealed plastic housing with metal mounting tab. Includes installation and wiring instructions. 2.125"×1"×1.25".

Ordinary low-budget sheet metal screws bite fine into ice but get ground away quick on paved surfaces. With sharp tips made of corrosion-proof, super hard, abrasion-resistant tungsten carbide, these ingeniously designed studs allow most of the tire’s rubber to be in contact with clear pavement while providing increased traction over mixed snow or ice. The best part is they’re simple to install — the studs self-tap with the included bit that fits any power drill. Just mark your tire, drill each one in and you’re ready to ride. For everyday winter riding, low profile studs (A, B or C) will keep you on the road. The off-road stud (D) is only for off-road / dirt riding. Scooter A & B are for scooters only. If you ride through the winter you’ll have fun, your bike will horribly corrode, and everyone will think you’re crazy. Perfect! Each set comes with an installation bit, instructions and 100 studs (50 per tire).

Will save them time looking all over the place for the stuff when hidden in the bottom of a towel or beneath a sandwich or whatever.

It can be unbelievably expensive to replace a cracked or rock chipped headlight lens. Some lenses are over two hundred dollars. Easy to apply, this thin 14-mil, cut-to-fit, double polished, ultra-clear, flexible film will have you ready for common detours, gravelly back roads and the big Cassier-to-Alcan-to-Anchorage (and back) ride. The headlight shield goes directly on the headlight lens so there is no place to trap moisture, dirt, and bugs. It is also UV resistant, won’t affect light pattern or output, and is all but unnoticeable. The thin protective layer also allows for better lamp cooling. Uses a unique, durable, peel and apply, later-removable, 3M adhesive. If additional protection is desired it can be double or triple layered to face oncoming traffic on gravel surfaces without fear. Also great as a custom see thru tank pad. Medium 12" x 12", Large 12" x 24".
