Trail and Adventure Motorcycle Accessories

Trail and Adventure motorcycle accessories

In this category, you will find a selection of accessories for Trail and Adventure motorcycles designed to improve protection, comfort, carrying capacity and motorcycle functionality.

Trail motorcycles are designed to combine road riding, touring and riding on tracks or authorised trails, so they can be equipped with different accessories depending on the intended use. These include luggage systems, crash bars, skid plates, handguards, windscreens, navigation mounts and ergonomic accessories.

At Non Stop Bikes, we select accessories from specialist brands based on their quality, durability, ease of installation and compatibility with each motorcycle model.

What accessories does a Trail motorcycle need?

The most suitable accessories will depend mainly on how the motorcycle is used. A motorcycle used for daily commuting may need different accessories from a Trail bike prepared for long-distance touring or riding away from tarmac.

Some of the most common accessories for Trail and Adventure motorcycles include:

• Side panniers and top boxes.
• Bags and luggage systems.
• Engine and fairing crash bars.
• Skid plates.
• Handguards.
• Radiator guards.
• Headlight guards.
• Windscreens and deflectors.
• GPS and phone mounts.
• USB sockets and electrical connections.
• Stands and side-stand enlargers.
• Comfort seats.
• Handlebar risers.
• Trail footpegs.
• Passenger accessories.

Panniers and luggage for Trail motorcycles

Luggage systems are among the most important accessories for riders who use a Trail motorcycle for touring. They make it possible to carry clothing, tools, documents, riding gear and personal belongings in an organised and secure way.

Side panniers

Side panniers considerably increase the carrying capacity of the motorcycle. They may be made from aluminium, plastic or composite materials and normally require model-specific mounting frames.

Hard panniers provide a high level of protection for their contents and are particularly common for long-distance touring and Adventure travel.

Soft side bags

Soft bags are a lightweight and flexible alternative to hard panniers. They are especially useful for riding on tracks where reducing weight and bulk is important.

Depending on the model, they may be waterproof or use waterproof inner bags.

Top boxes for Trail motorcycles

A top box provides convenient storage for everyday items and, depending on its capacity, may offer enough space to store a helmet.

Before installing a top box, it is important to check the compatibility of the rack, mounting plate and the maximum load recommended by the manufacturer.

Tank bags

Tank bags provide quick access to items such as documents, phone, wallet, camera or small accessories.

Models are available with magnetic mounting, straps or specific tank-ring mounting systems.

Rear bags and seat bags

Rear bags increase carrying capacity without the need to install permanent structures. They are a good choice for weekend trips, rides and short-distance touring.

Crash bars for Trail and Adventure motorcycles

Crash bars help protect important parts of the motorcycle from impacts and falls. They are particularly recommended when the motorcycle is used on tracks, trails or uneven terrain.

Depending on the model, they may protect:

• Engine.
• Fuel tank.
• Side fairings.
• Radiators.
• Engine covers.

It is important to use crash bars specifically designed for the motorcycle to ensure correct installation and avoid interference with other components.

Skid plates for Trail motorcycles

A skid plate protects the lower part of the engine from stones, impacts, branches and obstacles that may be encountered when riding away from tarmac.

It may be manufactured from aluminium, technical plastic or other durable materials. For frequent track riding, it is advisable to choose a model that properly protects the engine, exhaust headers and other lower components.

Handguards for Trail motorcycles

Handguards protect the hands, levers and handlebars from wind, small stones, branches and certain impacts.

Open models and reinforced handguards with metal structures are available. Closed and reinforced models are particularly suitable for Adventure and off-road riding.

Radiator guards

Radiators are exposed to stones, dirt and impacts. Radiator guards use a grille or protective structure designed to reduce the risk of damage without restricting the airflow required for cooling.

Before installation, compatibility with crash bars, auxiliary fuel tanks and other accessories should be checked.

Headlight guards

Headlight guards help prevent damage caused by stones and small impacts when riding on tracks or poorly surfaced roads.

They may be made from polycarbonate, metal mesh or other materials depending on the model.

Engine and cover protectors

Specific protectors are also available for clutch covers, alternator covers, water pumps and other exposed engine areas.

These accessories can reduce damage caused by low-speed falls or impacts during a ride.

Windscreens for Trail motorcycles

Windscreens help reduce wind pressure on the rider, particularly during long-distance touring and motorway riding.

Different heights and designs are available:

• Original or standard-height windscreens.
• Tall touring windscreens.
• Sport windscreens.
• Adjustable windscreens.
• Additional wind deflectors.

The correct height will depend on the motorcycle, rider height and riding position.

Wind deflectors

Deflectors can be fitted to the windscreen or certain areas of the fairing to alter airflow and improve wind protection.

They are particularly useful on long journeys when the aim is to reduce turbulence around the helmet or upper body.

GPS and navigation mounts

Navigation systems are common on Trail and Adventure motorcycles. Dedicated mounts allow GPS units, smartphones and navigation devices to be installed in a position visible to the rider.

When choosing a mount, it is worth checking:

• Device compatibility.
• Mounting system.
• Vibration resistance.
• Installation position.
• Ease of reading while riding.

Mobile phone mounts

Smartphone mounts allow navigation apps to be used and information to be viewed during the ride. They should hold the device securely and prevent excessive movement.

Some systems include anti-vibration mounts, waterproof cases or charging systems.

USB sockets and electrical accessories

USB sockets and power systems allow phones, navigation devices, cameras and other devices to be charged during a journey.

It is important to carry out the electrical installation correctly and use components designed to withstand moisture, vibration and motorcycle operating conditions.

Intercoms and communication accessories

Intercoms allow communication with a passenger or other riders, provide navigation instructions and allow calls or music to be managed.

Before choosing a device, it is worth checking helmet compatibility and the functions offered by each model.

Ergonomic accessories for Trail motorcycles

A correct riding position can significantly improve comfort and motorcycle control, particularly on long journeys or when riding standing up on tracks.

Handlebar risers

Handlebar risers allow the height or position of the handlebars to be changed. They can improve ergonomics for taller riders or provide a more natural position when riding standing up.

Before installation, check that cables, hoses and connections have sufficient length.

Handlebars for Trail motorcycles

Handlebars may vary in width, height and shape. A suitable handlebar should provide a comfortable riding position and sufficient control both seated and standing.

Trail and Adventure footpegs

Wider footpegs can improve foot support and distribute weight more effectively when riding standing up. They can also provide better grip when boots are wet or covered in mud.

Comfort seats

Comfort seats are designed to reduce fatigue on long journeys. They may feature different-density foam, anti-slip materials or a specific shape to distribute weight more effectively.

Passenger accessories

When travelling with a passenger, accessories can be added to improve passenger comfort, including backrests, grab handles, specific footpegs and seat cushions.

It is also important to arrange luggage correctly to maintain sufficient space and prevent panniers or bags from interfering with the passenger’s position.

Side-stand enlargers

Side-stand enlargers increase the contact area of the side stand and help reduce the risk of it sinking into soft surfaces such as soil, sand or gravel.

They are simple but particularly practical accessories for Adventure motorcycles used away from tarmac.

Centre stands

A centre stand makes tasks such as lubricating the chain, checking the rear wheel, carrying out basic maintenance or loading luggage easier.

It can also provide greater stability during longer periods of parking.

Fuel tank and paint protection accessories

Tank protectors, transparent protective films and side protection help reduce scratches and marks caused by boots, zips, luggage and everyday use.

Specific protection is also available for contact areas on the frame, swingarm and fairings.

Accessories for Trail motorcycle touring

Preparing a motorcycle correctly for touring can improve comfort and reduce potential problems during the journey.

Particularly useful touring accessories include:

• Waterproof panniers and bags.
• Navigation systems.
• Phone mounts.
• USB sockets.
• Tall windscreens.
• Comfort seats.
• Intercoms.
• Fuel containers and hydration systems.
• Luggage straps and cargo nets.
• Compact tools.
• Tyre repair kits.
• Portable compressors.

Accessories for Trail riding away from tarmac

When the motorcycle is frequently used on tracks, protection and durability should be prioritised.

Some of the most useful accessories for this type of riding include:

• Reinforced skid plates.
• Engine crash bars.
• Closed handguards.
• Radiator guards.
• Headlight guards.
• Brake disc guards.
• Wide footpegs.
• Handlebar risers.
• Frame protection.
• Soft luggage.

Accessories for urban and road use

If you mainly use your Trail motorcycle in the city or on the road, accessories designed to improve comfort and carrying capacity may be more useful.

Top boxes, windscreens, phone mounts, USB sockets and anti-theft systems are among the most practical options for everyday use.

How to choose accessories compatible with your Trail motorcycle

Many Trail accessories are specific to each motorcycle. Before ordering, it is important to check the make, model, year, engine capacity and exact version.

To help verify compatibility, we may need:

• Motorcycle make and model.
• Year of manufacture.
• Engine capacity.
• Exact version.
• VIN/chassis number, when required.
• Accessory reference.
• Photo of the area where it will be installed.

It is also important to check compatibility between different accessories. For example, some crash bars may interfere with a skid plate, some panniers with certain exhaust systems, or a GPS mount with a specific windscreen.

Approved accessories for Trail motorcycles

Some accessories may alter the characteristics of the motorcycle or affect components subject to road approval regulations. It is important to check the applicable regulations before fitting components that modify lighting, mirrors, dimensions, exhaust or other vehicle elements.

Where required, approved accessories should be used and the manufacturer’s installation requirements must be followed.

How to prepare a Trail motorcycle for touring

Before a long journey, it is advisable to plan the luggage and prepare the motorcycle according to the intended route. Weight distribution should be balanced and the manufacturer’s maximum recommended load must never be exceeded.

Heavier items should be positioned as low and centrally as possible. All panniers, bags and straps should be checked before starting the journey to ensure they are correctly secured.
