1. A perfect tankbag addition for covering up helmet hair and showing yourself as a proud Motorcycle Classics reader, our new Motorcycle Classics cap makes a great present for your old-bike-riding buddies. 100 percent cotton with hook-and-loop adjustable sizing. Get ‘em while they last! Price: $10. More info:

2. We say this "Cars Suck" T-shirt is most fun to wear where riders gather, or wherever nobody else gets it: Wear it when you go wandering around car shows and feel the irony. We also love it for Sunday morning rides (underneath a good leather jacket, of course). 100 percent cotton. Price: $17. More info: www.aerostich.com

3. Narrated by Dave Despain, The World’s Fastest Motorcycle DVD is a great way to spend two hours, especially once the temps drop outside. This DVD takes enthusiasts along on Dennis Mannings’ quest for the world speed record — 350.884mph — and not only recounts the technical wizardry and sophistication of Manning’s built-from-scratch streamliner, but of the emotions and passions that fueled the record run. This is a true glimpse into what it takes to become an American success story. Bonus material also includes the full story of the EASYRIDER 1990 record run. Price: $24.95.

4. This pewter "Glory Days" statue is a replica of the large "Glory Days" statue that is the inspiration of the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum logo, but sized to fit your desk. Made of pewter on a walnut base, it measures 5.5in in length. Price: $100. More info: www.motorcyclemuseum.org

5. Probably the most famous photo in motorcycling history, this framed print of Rollie Free shows him lying prone along the back spine of a borrowed Vincent HRD Black Lightning. The original photo was taken in 1948 by a speeding car as Free broke the land speed record by going 150 mph on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, wearing only a bathing suit, shower cap and a pair of sneakers. The result was history. This is a high quality, digitally-restored reproduction with a sepia tint (frame size: 11in x 14in, image size: 7.5in × 9.5in). Price: $45. More info: www.aerostich.com
