Baggage, the good kind – For a lot of motorcycles, storage is an issue, and tank bags can damage paint. A tail bag or fork bag can be the perfect marriage between versatility and style. Estimated cost: $30-$80

Literature – A less expensive gift, classics include “A Twist of the Wrist” (one and two), especially apt for fans of speed, and Peter Egan’s “Leanings” series, a collection of stories from one of the most legendary motorcycle storytellers of all time. Estimated cost: $20-$60

Motorcycle Ornament – Pretty self-explanatory, but what rider wouldn’t want a miniature representative of their bike on the tree! Estimated cost: $10-$20
