Motorcycle Black Friday Gift Guide 2018

Gifts for the rider at unbeatable prices

It rolls around just once a year, and marks possibly the best time to get the most bang for your buck. We're talking Black Friday. And rather than stand in line at some department store after you're done devouring all the fixin's at your in-law's house, you can simply hop on your computer and get all your shopping done from the comfort of your couch. Motorcycle gear, apparel, accessories, and other goodies for your bike are definitely part of the program too, which is why we're bringing you some of the best deals we've found this year.

GoPro Hero Cameras

GoPro is a hugely popular camera for riders all over the world and a number of the models will be going on special for Black Friday at Amazon, with savings up to 62 percent off in some cases. The Hero 7 is a fantastic option to keep your eyes on; with features like voice control, time warp video, live-streaming, touchscreen functionality, and a host of other updates, this is one gift that would be a big hit this holiday season.GoPro

DJI Mavic Air Drone

DJI is currently running a great special on its Mavic Air Drone, available for $100 off the normal sticker price. You'll have stunning footage of your next ride with this piece from DJI. It shoots 4K video at 30 fps, has slow-motion capabilities, can snag HDR photos, and folds up into a really tidy package, making it a breeze to pack along. There are a whole host of other features, and it might take a little practice to get right, but DJI is a leader in drone technology and this deal is hard to pass up.DJI

Gerber Suspension Multi-Plier

When you're out on the road, having compact tools with you can be a real boon, and a solid multi-tool packs a lot of punch.

It's got 12 different components to handle all your basic needs, weighs a scant 9.6 ounces, and comes with a lifetime warranty. This is one of those gifts that will certainly be a hit.Gerber

Delmera Emergency Survival Sleeping Bag

Following the same lines as the Gerber Multi-Plier, having something small and easy to pack in case of emergency makes a long ride from home a lot nicer. The Delmera Emergency Survival Sleeping Bag is a small, 4.6-ounce waterproof bag that can easily fit into a backpack, pannier, tank bag, or top case. This is for the occasions when you need to hole up for the night unexpectedly or get hit with rain when you were expecting clear skies. It draws on designs developed by NASA and is guaranteed to keep you warm and protected, and for under $10, this could be the stocking stuffer your favorite rider will never forget.Delmera

Harley-Davidson Essential Bar-And-Shield Neon Clock

A great addition to the garage or den or living room, depending on how dedicated you are to the bar-and-shield brand. The Harley-Davidson Essential Bar-And-Shield Neon Clock has a chrome housing with blue neon ring around the inside and is 1 foot in diameter, so you'll be able to see the time from anywhere in the room.Harley-Davidson
