CycleGadgets.com provides unique, practical motorcycle accessories to the touring market, primarily BMW and Honda Gold Wing riders. Major product lines include lighting accessories to improve visibility and safety, and GPS navigation units and mounts. Their business is primarily done through their Web site, www.CycleGadgets.com. When attending motorcycle rallies, they use their 31 foot motor home, "Mobile Command Center," with a garage in back for their motorcycles and merchandise. Their first printed catalog will be distributed shortly. For over a year, CycleGadgets.com has provided free ìEmergency Info Tagsî (containing personal and medical information along with contact phone numbers) to motorcyclists all over the country.
