Adventure riders go where others wouldn’t dare venture and adventure motorcycle gear makes this type of riding possible. If you plan to explore mixed riding surfaces, it’ll soon become apparent that strictly street or dirt apparel isn’t going to cut it in the world of ADV. Cycle Gear has you covered, with everything from helmets and gloves to crash bars and batteries that’ll keep you blazing a new trail. If you’re considering the purchase of an ADV bike — or think you’re ready for the Paris-Dakar Rally — be sure to stock up and kit yourself out in the latest and greatest riding gear.

Chose your own adventure!

Dual sport bikes may have helped increase the popularity of ADV’s street-legal riding style, but adventure riding is really in a league of its own. These big-bore machines can crank out paved miles and take you through the trees along a short cut or fire cut. Of course, such diverse riding styles means the right adventure touring gear is even more important. Leading manufacturers have taken note, with everything from boots to windscreens getting a special adventure touring spin. Helmets meant for the adventure rider have taken the effective parts of dirt-only and street-specific types and combined the two. Jackets are another hugely popular product with brands like Alpinestars, Klim, REV’IT! all developing jackets that will keep you warm at speed and cool in the technical sections. It never hurts to outfit your ADV bike with the latest "farkles" like a windscreen, skid plates, crash bars or handguards, either.
