Five Products for the Adventure Bike Rider

Long-Distance Duffel Schlepping gear from here to Timbuktu needn't be an ADV logistics nightmare. Even the non-GS rider will appreciate the BMW Atacama Soft Top Case Duffel ($326.99), a clever storage solution that will strap to any tail rack. The best part of this 10.6-gallon waterproof duffel is that it converts into a backpack off the bike. (800) 831-1117 bmwmotorcycles.com

Strap It On Losing a load along the road or trail will spoil any great adventure. The Better Bungee Slotted Strap ($5) is just that, an innovative take on the traditional bungee cord. The 36-inch polyurethane strap safely stretches two times its length, features scratch-free molded nylon hooks, and has six slots allowing easy customization of its overall length making for a flexible installation. thebetterbungee.com

Trail-Worthy Tires Serious on-/off-road riding requires proper tires. The Michelin Anakee Wild ($256.95–$320.95) is developed to combine on-road stability, wear resistance, and increased wet-road and off-road traction. The tread block design releases mud, and bride-blocks on the shoulder increase pavement cornering stability. (208) 552-7433 michelinmotorcycle.com

The KTM Rally Jacket ($249.99) features removable, breathable, wind- and waterproof Z-liner membrane and microfleece lining. Chest and back vents, neoprene collar, and Lycra cuffs ensure comfort, while removable elbow and shoulder armor adds protection. ktmusa.com
