Christmas Gift Ideas for Motorcyclists


Buying Christmas gifts for motorcyclists is always a challenge. This task is made particularly difficult because most folks buying gifts for motorcyclists don't ride themselves and typically don't know anything about motorcycles. You may have a list of things the recipient wants, you may not. It's not easy talking with the personnel at some motorcycles stores, which is why we make it easy for you you if you call our store. We'll try to help you get the right size, color or the the right fitting part for your loved ones motorcycle.

Here are some gift ideas worth thinking about. All of them available at Motostrano.com for fast shipping and easy ordering.

  • Motorcycle gloves - riders always need them and no single gloves works for all occasions. Here's a chance for you to get some nice winter riding gloves, or some waterproof gloves, or some new road race or warm weather gloves. Motostrano has them all.
  • Casual apparel - it's cold so grab your honey a hoodoe, or a new beanie.
  • Exhaust- a new exhaust for the right rider on the right bike will bring smiles a mile wide to your buddy
  • Tools - moto specific tools are helpful and great to have around
  • Wheels - for that budding supermoto rider, some new 17 inch wheels will make him indebted to you for life.
  • Jackets - a new motorcycle jacket is always helpful. Riders like to let these things get ripe and funky before replacement.
  • Tires - tires are expensive and always wear out. Always.

Hardware: Supermoto Wheels Explained

Supermoto wheels are a big investment, when you factor that your 2-3 year old dirt bike may have a resale value in dirt form in the $4-5K range, if that. We get calls from guys all the time who say "well, I'm not really racing or nothing, so I'm just looking for the cheapest wheels you have to convert to Supermoto". Well, the real reply there is that there really isn't a cheap way to get into Supermoto unless you're going to go Sportsman about it and ride on knobbies or some type of dual-sport tire. Quality 17-inch supermoto wheels that will last are going to set you back between $800 and $2000 depending on how deep you're going to go at this and whether you want quality and performance or just a good price. Motostrano is a full scale supermoto specialist and we've been involved in Supermoto since it's re-birth in the United States in 2002. We offer complete supermoto wheels made from the finest materials and built by experience wheel builders

Riding the Moustache Samedi 27 2X Tandem Electric Bike

I love riding with my partner and riding by tandem is one of my favorite ways to get around on a Sunday. Touring by tandem is literally twice as fun as riding solo,when you are on a bike with the one you love and the one that loves you. But tandem bikes are rare and excellent electric tandem bikes are even rarer, so I wanted to give you a fresh impression of our ride yesterday on the 2018 MOUSTACHE Samedi 27 X2 tandem . Moustache is a French company, making some of the most innovative ebikes in the world. Their tandem is no exception. This bike comes in two build types, either a smooth tire touring type or a knobby tire off-road type, but the frames, motors and other specs are pretty much the same.  I've ridden tandems for the past few years on road and off road. Yesterday we did a Meet-Up ride with other fellow ebikers in the Sonoma area. Naturally we were the only tandem riders, with others riding solo on their Haibikes, KTM, Giant, Felt and Blix bikes.
