5 Important Pieces of Motorcycle Gear (Some Harley Themed)

GunBroker is a marketplace for guns; it is in the name. However, there are way more items available for purchase than just firearms. In fact, if it is legal, it just might be for sale on the site. This includes gold coins, clothing, knives, fishing tackle and even motorcycle gear.

Those who like to ride can find a whole lot gear to keep themselves safe on the road, from helmets, jackets and gloves to, of course, guns, holsters and ammunition. Some folks have even listed motorcycles, including the most popular — Harley Davidson. In fact, quite a bit of the motorcycle gear listed on GunBroker is Harley Davidson branded. But not all. 

Jackets 

Leather jackets and motorcycles just go together. Part of it is for looks, but most of it is for safety. Leather protects riders from wind, rain and pavement. It also looks cool, especially if it says Harley Davidson on the back. 

Knives

There have been few companies as good at branding as Harley Davidson. This motorcycle company has partnered to put out countless items outside of its purview from coolers and glasses to trucks and even knives. In fact, Harley Davidson knives are popular with both the riding and non-riding public, with Benchmade, Buck, Case and many more making fine examples. 

Gloves

Since the hands control so much on a motorcycle, it is a pretty good idea to protect them when riding. And yes, Harley licenses motorcycle gloves. However, it might be better to consider tactical gloves for riding. The Magpul breach glove is made of fire-resistant Nomex, with knuckle protectors. This glove can handle a beating. It even comes in a variety of colors and sizes. 

Lighters

Smoking might not be the most accepted activity, there are reports of it coming back in pop culture, but it is still a good idea to keep a lighter around. Those into motorcycles might want to consider a lighter that matches the preferred brand of bike. Those who have Harleys have lots of choices. In fact, folks have lot of choices regardless in style and design since “windproof” lighters have been popular for decades, with a single company leading the pack. 

Firearms

“Live to Ride” is a popular theme with motorcycle riders, showing up on jackets, helmets and even firearms. It is really popular on GLOCKs. And while Harley Davidson might not have licensed manufacturers, there are also some custom made 1911s featuring the Harley logo, along with “Ride or Die.” Those wanting a motorcycle gear handgun have options.
