Here are 5 motorcycle road trip tips to tour in comfort on your Harley-Davidson motorcycle. These licensed products are sure to make your motorcycle road trip better. 

1. Foot controls

Feet and legs get tired on long rides. Equipping yourself with the right parts means more comfort and fewer stops along the way. Don’t settle for anything less than official Harley-Davidson products like:

• Adjustable Highway Peg Mounting Kit – With long and short angled options, these kits offer versatility for taller and shorter riders.
• Rider Running Board – Longer and wider footboards let riders stretch out, relieving muscle tension and reducing fatigue along the way.
• Rider Footboard Heel Guard – Love your Harley but hate cleaning those rubber scuff marks off your exhaust shield? Protect your boots and your bike at the same time.

2. Comfort

A hard seat is no way to enjoy the great outdoors on your Harley-Davidson. Check out the Road Zeppelin seat, with a unique air bladder system that evenly distributes weight across the entire seating surface for you and your passenger. Get rid of pressure points and enjoy the added comfort of enhanced shock absorption and reduced vibration.

3. Luggage products

No one understands your riding habits better than Harley-Davidson. And it shows with such a huge variety of adjustable luggage options. Genuine H-D luggage offers reflective trim, integrated rain covers, secure mounting systems and more, all accented with that unmistakable Bar & Shield logo. No matter where you go or how long you stay, Harley has the right luggage for you.

4. Audio

Bringing some tunes with you on the road? Equip your motorcycle with Boom! Audio components, exclusively from Harley-Davidson. Featuring premium speakers, amplifiers, and other audio upgrades, these products are designed for Harley riders and their favorite motorcycles.

5. Navigation
  

You can leave your maps behind and let the Road TechTM zumo® 665 be your guide. This motorcycle-friendly navigator is more than just a GPS unit – it offers options such as continuously updated satellite weather and traffic information as well as stereo Bluetooth® and SiriusXMTM Satellite Radio. This item is only available for purchase in-store so stop in and get more information.
