Picking up just any gadget can get pricey when you need to replace it or if it falls apart after a few uses. This is what we mean by each criteria:

  • Safety: Does it help keep you safe on the road, is it designed to do so?
  • Comfort: Does it make your ride more enjoyable?
  • Functionality: Will this gadget work as intended?
  • Durability: Can it withstand tough conditions and is it built strong?
  • Value: At the end of the day, are you getting your money’s worth?

Each accessory will be rated out of five for each of these criteria - if it’s not meant to provide that criteria, we’ll drop an N/A instead of a rating. To start, here’s a breakdown of each item on our list for those short on time:

Best Known for Secure and Versatile Mounting

This. One of our latest motorcycle phone mounts that ticks off every box. Made with aircraft-grade aluminum and stainless steel hardware - no plastic or aluminum cast here.

Comes with a snug fit with nearly endless adjustability options thanks to our double ball system. For a sleek finish, we’ve added UV anodized black aluminum - specifically designed to help your motorcycle mount keep its color in the sun.


Now, how does it hold onto your phone? It’s our patented RokLock® twist lock. This was a tough choice for us. On one hand, we wanted the mount to be universal and work with any case. On the other hand, we didn’t want to sacrifice the stability and sturdiness of the mount. So, if you don’t own one of the most protective phone cases on the market (aka - Rokform rugged cases), you can get your hands on our Universal Adapter to go with our Rokform Pro Ball Motorcycle Phone Mount.

Community Reviews and Expert Recommendations

Since its introduction, our Pro Ball Motorcycle Phone Mount has gotten rave reviews - riders appreciate the stability, adjustability, and the larger bar fit. Let’s see what the community has to say:

“Solid Mount! - I've got the motorcycle perch mount a little over a year ago, and while I really like how secure and solid it is, it lacked some of the flexibility I needed as far as rotating for phone angle. I also wanted to move my phone lower, behind my fairing. (I have 16" Ape Hangers) This Ball Mount fits the bill perfect. It's construction is very solid. Extremely happy with my purchase!” ~ Philip H. (Verified Buyer)


“It’s great - Works exactly as intended. Holds phone great minimal shaking on a Harley so that’s great. Honestly I love this thing. Price is a little high. But I love it.” ~ Gordon D. (Verified Buyer)

“Almost two year mark commuting everyday - So far Klim vest looks like new, wear it 5 days a week at 75+mph to and from work. The InMotion In&Box (module) is a bit tricky to slide out of the vest to charge the unit (about 2x a month for me)-- I found the easiest way is to gently pry at the notch with two flat blade screw drivers and it will slide out…”~ Eugene (Verified Buyer)


1 Star

“Hardware Failure Upon 2nd Deployment - Safety / Reliability Failure - …First time low side deployment was confidence inspiring and felt great. No visible damage and the vest did its job. 2nd low side deployment it was noticed that there appeared to be residue within the section / hose of the line thatRead more about review stating Hardware Failure Upon 2nd Deployment - Safety / Reliability Failure connects the charge to the bags within the vest.

Reviewers are raving that others ‘could see me from many car lengths back’, that ‘I’ve ridden over 40,000 miles with my Brake Free’, and going as far as saying they ‘love this product’.


Here are the top reviews on their site:

“Great Product - I've had my brake free helmet light for more than three years now. It has been absolutely trouble free. Charging it every Friday is sufficient for my typical work week commute. I've had a number of people in cars stop at lights to tell me how visible the helmet light is. I feel like anything I can do to make my self seen on the road is worth it. The brake free light is so light weight I don't even know it's on the helmet…” ~ David (Verified Buyer)


Reviewers are branding this a must for motorcycle riders citing premium quality, unique style, saying the brand gave them an accurate description, and more great stuff. Check it out here and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Denali SoundBomb Horn

Best Known for Extreme Sound Output

You know how it is on the road. Not every car is as tuned into sharing the road with motorcycles as they should be. That invisibility can add danger to our rides. And typically, your horn isn’t loud enough to get their attention - people are on calls, listening to music, or just plain old not paying attention. This adds 4x the sound of your regular motorcycle horn. As far as motorcycle gadgets go - this one is on the top of the list for importance. Not only is it louder than your bike’s horn, but it’s also twice as loud as a car horn. So if they don’t see you - they’ll most definitely hear you coming! It’s durable too, and shouldn’t be affected by vibrations. Cage drivers, watch out!

Community Reviews and Expert Recommendations

This air horn got a 4.7 rating on the Denali site, and a 3.8 on Amazon. Most reviewers call it an easy install and an upgrade from their stock air horns in bikes like the BMW GS 1200 Horn. What they’re calling a plug n play, others called ‘too big’ for bikes like the 2015 Honda Goldwing F6B. No matter your ride, be sure to check compatibility before purchase, as most low reviews are citing poor customer service. Here are the top reviews on Amazon:

“Loud - I put this on my 04 Road King and it sounds like a freight train! I love it. It was easy to install on the existing OEM bracket and the wiring was a snap. Only thing is I wish the wires came out the back of the horn instead of underneath it for better concealment. Other then that this thing is amazing. Everyone asks me to blow my horn cause it sounds so cool coming from a bike and not a mac truck lol Totally recommend installing one of these so the rubber necks hear you since they can't be bothered with paying attention and SEE you. Saved me once already and I just installed it last week. HIGHLY RECOMMEND PUTTING THIS ON YOUR BIKE!” ~ Robin Master (Verified Buyer)


“To big to hide - It loud. Sounds great. Just no way to mount this big horn on my 2015 honda goldwing f6b.” ~ Mike and Jennifer (Verified Buyer)


“Loud Horn - Installed on my 2019 Roadmaster. Had to drill the bracket hole on my bike to fit the horn. I strongly suggest purchasing the wiring kit.” ~ Robert Swofford (Verified Buyer)

Rokform Premium Lanyard

Because…accidents happen. When you’re out riding and have your phone mounted to your motorcycle, it’s always a good idea to have backup protection. The last thing you want is for your phone to fly off. Although, our mounts and cases are known to take a beating. Check out this Survival Series story from one of our Rokform customers:


“Much love and respect for making the best mounts and cases in the industry! I crashed with your mount and case setup at over 100kms/hr and got very hurt and my bike went for a 100-foot slide and I was able to take my untouched phone off the mount and call for help! Still using the mount and case to this day a year later and it looks brand new! Again, much love for making such solid products. I’ll always be using them on everything.”

FAQ

How often should I replace my motorcycle accessories?

That will highly depend on the item we’re talking about. For example, it’s common to replace a helmet every 3 to 5 years, but tech will advance every 2 to 3 years. For example, the helmet brake light above is mounted on your helmet and needs to be charged. In the next few years, they may invent one that’s solar powered and doesn’t need to plug in. At Rokform - we make our products ultra durable, so replacing a mount may not be on your mind for a long time. Manufacturer recommendations are a good place to get a hint of how often you’ll replace each one of your motorcycle accessories.

Are rugged cases worth the investment?

Yes - although we didn’t directly include our rugged cases on our list above, they’re essential to a complete and tough list of motorcycle accessories. When it comes to your device, you want protection from the best phone cases. Ours are made with adventure in mind and preferred by Military and First Responder Personnel for good reason. Speaking of, if you’re on duty as a nurse, paramedic, officer, or in the army, take advantage of our Military & First Responder Discount Program!

Can I install these accessories myself, or should I seek professional help?

You can install all the motorcycle gadgets on our list above - no need for professional help. Look for how-to videos from these brands or read the instructions carefully before beginning.

How do I choose the right size for accessories like an airbag vest?

Sizing guides are your friend here! Also take into account what you typically wear when you ride your motorcycle. If you tend to bulk up, going up a size might be a good idea. take your measurements and compare them to the sizing guide from the manufacturer - you want to do everything you can to ensure you don’t have to send your airbag vest back and wait for a new one!

Are there any legal considerations I should be aware of when using these accessories?

That’s going to change depending on where you live - and if you tend to cross state lines! For example, if you’re using motorcycle gadgets that level up your airhorn sound - that may be beyond the legal limits where you’re riding. The point is, check local regulations anytime you’re changing the appearance or performance of your bike.
