What is it about motorcycles in economically developing foreign countries around the world? Maybe it's that motorcycles have always been a cheap form of transportation as well as the fact that there are many motorcycle enthusiasts who love nothing more than to carry their motorcycle helmet bags with them as they travel on their open air bike.



Motorcycles have a great history that includes many myths and subcultures that have become lifestyles for many. The most prized possession of any Harley Biker is their head scarfs, leather jackets and motorcycle helmet bags. The jacket in one hand and the bag in the other. Different motorcycles require different helmets. Caf racers wear a classic helmet. Mod racers race at high speeds with bright, vibrant and colorful helmets on their heads, but one thing remains the same, they have their matching motorcycle helmet bags. Rockers are also known for their crazy outrageous helmets that often match their helmet bags, saddlebag and the design on their bikes. Every biker has his or her own style overall creating a unique subculture.

Every motorcycle society and group has its very own color and design. Some groups are known for exclusively riding a certain type of bike, such as Harley groups. They exclusively use Harley helmets, motorcycle helmet bags, jacket, boots and vest all the way to the dealership keychain they got when they bought the bike. Similarly BMW MOA members boast using nothing but BMW bikes, helmets and of course motorcycle helmet bags. While each group has it's own unique reason for gathering they all love their bikes. Sometimes groups gather for social reasons while for others it's about raising money. Some are just in it for the thrill they get while racing a motorcycle at high speeds.

Aside from the more informal groups, there are associations that have an organized structure and exude more influence. The riders involved in these groups usually rally for some change, whether politically or within the larger society. These groups may come together in support of laws to protect motorcyclists on the roads, and have symbols and designs on their clothes, motorcycles, helmets, motorcycle helmet bags and accessories. These groups may start small, but can bloom into large organizations which can gain considerable sway as a political organization as they develop. Clubs dedicated to motorcycles can serve additional purposes, as well. These range from a desires of seeing the country side and enjoying the road, to testing their skills via non-professional races, to more professional for-profit races (both off and on road), to stunts requiring special skills and extra courage to extreme - or Xtreme - sport riding. One can almost certainly bet that each of the group's members has a unique range of gear, accessories, clothes, helmets, saddle bags and motorcycle helmet bags. Of course, it would be neglectful to not mention the illegal motorcycle groups; but these are a fraction of all clubs dedicated to bikers. Some of these bikers ride in illegal racing tournaments, or create havoc via traffic violations or other deliberate 'minor' offenses.

The lady bikers will not be left behind, too, as they form their own motorcycling lifestyles and subcultures, bringing with them their own feminine types of helmets, helmet bags, more shapely jackets, sexier pants and boots, and the range of motorcycle accessories that they wanted feminized. Whether these groups are close-knit or loosely organized, the kind of subculture they bring that is unique to the motorcycle riding enthusiasts will always liven up the mystery and myth behind the motorcycles and their riders.
