5 Must-Have Motorcycle Accessories for Your Next Ride

At Alchemy Parts, we know there is nothing quite like the freedom of hitting the road on two wheels. Whether you ride for pleasure, commute daily or tour long distances, the right accessories can make all the difference. From safety and comfort to protection and convenience, upgrading your gear is not just about looking the part, it is about riding smarter.

As a trusted motorcycle parts shop, we stock a wide range of motorcycle accessories suitable for all types of bikes and riders. Today we are highlighting five standout products that can take your next ride to the next level. These are just a few examples from our wider collection, but each one has earned its spot on this list for a reason.

  1. Givi TM418 Pair of Handlebar Muffs for Motorcycles and Scooters

Cold hands can ruin a ride fast, especially in the colder months or when caught in the rain. The Givi TM418 handlebar muffs are designed to keep your fingers warm and dry no matter the weather. Made from rain-resistant polyester with a warm inner lining, these are ideal for year-round commuting and longer rides in changing conditions.

What makes them different? Unlike many soft handlebar muffs, these have a rigid structure which makes it easier to slide your hands in and out without fumbling. They are also universally designed to fit most handlebars and mirrors, making them suitable for a wide range of motorcycles and scooters.

If you are after a quick, practical upgrade for wet and cold weather riding, these are hard to beat.

  1. Givi A660 Universal Screen with 2-Point Handlebar Mount

Wind buffeting is one of those things you do not think about until you are out on a ride and getting battered by the breeze. The Givi A660 screen is a game-changer if you want to reduce wind pressure and ride more comfortably, especially at higher speeds.

This smoked screen measures 42.5 by 42 cm and mounts with a two-point handlebar system, making it easy to install on a wide variety of bikes. It does not just reduce fatigue; it also adds a sleek aesthetic that enhances the front end of your bike.

If you are planning longer rides or just want a smoother, quieter experience at speed, this screen delivers.

  1. Daytona Heated Grip Kit - 3 Stage for 1" Handlebars

Cold weather can make throttle control a nightmare. The Daytona Heated Grip Kit is the perfect solution for riders with 1 inch handlebars, including Harley Davidson Sportster and Dyna models, as well as Triumph Bonnevilles.

This kit offers three levels of heat, giving you control based on the temperature outside. The grips themselves are comfortable, durable and discreet, blending in with your existing controls without looking bulky or out of place.

Installation is straightforward, and once fitted, you will wonder how you ever did without them. Warm hands mean better control and a much more enjoyable ride during autumn and winter months.

  1. Oxford Monster Chain Lock - 14mm Thick x 1.5m Long

A great bike deserves great protection. The Oxford Monster chain lock is no nonsense security with a Sold Secure rating to back it up. The 14mm thick chain is built to resist bolt cutters and other attacks, and at 1.5 metres long, it gives you enough length to lock your bike securely to a solid anchor point.

Ideal for home or on-the-go use, this chain is tough, reliable and made by one of the most respected names in motorcycle security. If you leave your bike unattended regularly, especially in urban areas, this is the kind of investment that pays off in peace of mind.

We stock a range of Oxford locks in different sizes and styles, but the Monster chain remains a solid all-round choice for serious protection.

  1. Oxford Aquatex Bike Cover with Top Box - Large Size

Finally, a simple yet essential item for every rider who parks outside. The Oxford Aquatex cover protects your bike from rain, sun, dirt and prying eyes. This version includes space for a top box, making it ideal for commuters, tourers and scooter riders.

The large size (246cm x 104cm x 127cm) fits most motorcycles with luggage systems and offers full coverage from the ground up. It is lightweight, quick to fold and comes with an elasticated base for a snug fit.

Using a cover regularly helps prevent rust, UV damage and unwanted attention. It is one of the easiest ways to extend the life of your bike, especially if you do not have access to a garage.
