Hard Top Bike Canopies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Rocketshields

— June 9, 2008 — Autos
Rocketshields are detachable hardtops designed by David Fermil that will never leave you out in the rain again while riding your motorcycle. The hardtop makes use of fastening points already installed on the bike, straight from the manufacturer. That means no extra brackets or holes need to be drilled to fit it on.

Every biker knows how miserable it can be to ride in the rain; especially at high speeds, the rain drops hitting your face aren't exactly drops of bliss. The canopy also offers some protection from the direct sun. The canopy is also slim enough so that it does not obstruct your rear view mirrors.
Trend Themes
1. Detachable Hardtops for Motorcycles - A trend towards more user-friendly hardtop solutions that do not require drilling or extra brackets.
2. Weather-proof Motorcycle Accessories - A trend towards accessories that make riding in extreme weather more comfortable and safe for bikers.
3. Slim and Non-obstructive Motorcycle Canopies - A trend towards ultra-slim canopies that provide adequate protection without obstructing riders' views or disrupting their riding experience.
Industry Implications
1. Motorcycling Accessories - Manufacturers of motorcycle accessories can benefit from offering detachable hardtops and other weather-proof solutions for bikers.
2. Automotive Manufacturing - Opportunities exist for automotive manufacturers to collaborate with motorcycle makers to design hardtops that make use of existing fastening points on bikes, negating the need for drilled holes and extra brackets.
3. Outdoor Sports and Recreation - Companies in the outdoor sports and recreation industry can capitalize on the trend of creating slim and non-obstructive canopies that protect riders from the elements without impeding their line of sight or overall riding experience.
