About
Motorcycles in India face unique challenges — dust, rain, traffic, heat, and rough roads. These factors affect not just how a bike rides, but what gear actually holds up. Good information on either is hard to find in one place.
Bike Basics started as a set of practical maintenance guides for everyday riders. It's grown into something more useful: a place to compare motorcycle gear — helmets, jackets, gloves, and boots — across the retailers that actually sell them in India, so you can find the right gear at a fair price without twelve open tabs.
We don't sell anything ourselves. Every "buy" link takes you to the retailer's own site. Some of those links are affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission if you buy through them — at no extra cost to you. We only link to gear we'd consider buying ourselves.
