A motorbike, scooter or moped needs more than just fuel and maintenance. With the right motorcycle accessories, you can protect your vehicle, make your rides easier to manage and choose suitable motorcycle clothing. However, it is easy to spend money on an accessory that is unsuitable for your vehicle or everyday use.
As a Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, I focus mainly on verifiable specifications. Marketing terms mean little if the size, connection or certification is not right.
A waterproof motorcycle cover should do more than simply keep out the rain. Pay attention to the dimensions, seams, fastening system and ventilation too. A cover that is too small will leave parts of the vehicle exposed. One that is too large may flap in the wind and cause rubbing.
Also make sure the motorbike has cooled down fully before fitting the cover. Hot exhaust components can damage the material or coating.
A modular helmet or other full-face helmet should fit firmly and evenly. Relying solely on S, M, L or XL is risky, as sizing charts vary between models. Measure your head circumference with a flexible tape measure, roughly above the eyebrows and around the widest part of your head.
With an ECE 22.06 motorcycle helmet, you should also check that the correct approval marking is actually present on the product. According to the product information for the MY 935 and MY 936 helmets, these models are ECE R 22.06 approved. Treat this as a product specification for the listing and check the marking and documentation when the product arrives.
A motorcycle CarPlay screen with Android Auto can be useful for navigation and controls, but installation varies from one motorbike to another. Check the following in advance:
For a digital motorcycle dashboard, voltage, connectors, communication protocol and mounting dimensions are also important. A dashboard described as universal will not automatically work with every motorbike, electric motorbike, scooter or moped.
A modular helmet combines a chin bar with a flip-up design. This can be practical during short stops, but always check that the model suits your intended use and fits correctly. According to the product description, the MY 935 has an ABS outer shell, EPS inner layer, dual visor and a prepared space for a Bluetooth headset.
According to the product information, the MY 936 comes with an integrated sun visor, removable and washable lining, and an ABS shell. Available sizes range from XS to XXL, but the exact measurements in centimetres vary by model. For the MY 935, for example, XL is listed as 61–62 cm, while MY 936 XL is listed as 60–61 cm. This difference shows why the specific sizing chart is more important than the letter size.
The Oxerbog cover is available in three sizes:
According to the product description, the cover is made from aluminium foil needle-felt material with a water-repellent coating on the inside. The same information states that the seams are double-stitched and sealed. The cover has elastic straps, wind buckles, two openings for a chain lock and four reflective strips.
A lock is not included. Do not use the dimensions only to assess the length of your scooter or motorbike. Also take the mirrors, top box, windscreen and handlebar height into account.
According to their product names, the Carpuride screens in this selection feature a waterproof touchscreen and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The models differ in screen size and mounting options, among other things:
A larger screen may be easier to read, but it also takes up more space. Check that it does not obstruct your view of the original instruments. A screen also does not automatically replace the motorbike’s original dashboard or safety functions.
Why it suits this profile: This compact size is designed for smaller scooters, mopeds and motorbikes without large accessories. Measure your vehicle beforehand to avoid buying the wrong size.
The size is clearly stated and, according to the product information, the cover has wind buckles, elastic straps and sealed seams.
220 × 95 × 110 cm, two openings for a chain lock and reflective strips.
Why it suits this profile: For riders who value a modular helmet with added convenience, such as an integrated sun visor and washable inner lining.
The size is linked to centimetres: according to the product information, S corresponds to 55–56 cm. The listing states ECE R 22.06; check the marking when the product arrives.
Integrated sun visor, removable lining, ABS shell and buckle fastening.
Why it suits this profile: Suitable for riders who navigate frequently and want to combine a larger screen with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.
The product name states 7-inch, waterproof touchscreen, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto. You should still check your motorbike’s mounting requirements and power supply.
7-inch touchscreen, wireless connection, dual Bluetooth and intercom support according to the product listing.
We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
For everyday use, a suitable motorcycle helmet, a motorcycle cover and, where appropriate, a navigation screen are practical choices. Start by considering what your vehicle and riding habits require. A scooter kept outdoors will benefit more from a well-fitting scooter cover than from a dashboard that is not compatible.
Its lifespan depends on exposure to sunlight, wind and dirt, as well as folding and storage. Let the cover dry before putting it away, only fit it over a cooled vehicle, and regularly check the seams and buckles. A cover that is constantly rubbing tightly against sharp parts will wear out more quickly.
That depends on the vehicle and the connection. Check the voltage, connectors, communication protocol and mounting points. Professional installation is recommended for the universal TFT dashboard version mentioned above. If the wiring does not match, have the installation checked before connecting the system.
