Problem is they google "motorcycle gifts" and from there you are in trouble .
My family have moved away from the tat over the years and now tend to buy me cleaning products for my bikes and kit which is always welcome although i do currently own more muc off visor cleaner then im ever likely to need in my life time... enfact i probably have more of it than muc off at this point
One of my nephews gets me a small bike model every year which is nice but im running out of places to put them now.
Obviously i was pleased when my wife bought me an MT10 for my birthday last year ____________________ Bikes owned :- 2001 nsr125, 1999 zx6r, 2006 yzf-r1, 2009 xmax 250, 2012 yzf-r1, 2015 MT-07
Current bike : - 2016 MT-10

In the last decade or so since divorce... no.... Both Uncle's bike, so they were a bit more clued up on what might be useful... Actually my Gran was quite well informed too! She used to make sure I got Damart Thermals every year
Actually, my auntie (Unc's wife) borrowed my one-piece race suit some decades ago, for a charity thing to do a lap in a racing side-car outfit... it probably had a name like "Chariots for Charity' or something! But she discovered, even though it had bee tailor made for me, it was a perfect fit for her... I am not entirely sure want to contemplate the implications of that one..... but, ever since, I have opened Christmas or birthday presents, to find gloves or long-johns and the comment as I look NOT been "I hope you like it" but, "It Should Fit, JJ tried it on in the shop to be sure"
Hold on, did I say they were a bit more clued up? I was thinking about other Unc, who I always remember when I pick up my favorite Snap-On screwdriver, he gave me.... B-u-t.... I have to offset that with the fact that two years after the 125 Learner-Laws came in, for my 15th Birthday, he gave me an RD250 'project' bike telling me I could fix it up for when I was 16.....
I didn't actually get to ask him about that for a decade; but when I did, I asked; "SURELY as it only came in 18 moths after YOU were 16, you knew 16 year olds couldn't ride 250's any more? More, 17 year old's had 'just' bee limited to 125's, and I wouldn't be able to ride it at 16 and barely at 17, and certainly not on L-Plates!?!"
"Yeah!" He replied... "but YOU didn't know that! And kept you out of trouble 'till you found out didn't it?"
Recently? Most usefully Snowie bought for jot birthday and christmas, the Shark Flip-Lid, after I had tried one on i the shop, and been impressed by everything but the price! Probably No1 'win' of the century that.
Otherwise, the Kids, lead by daughter, then about ten, bought me a Hi-Vis bib! Bless. They were very very exited they had found something motorbike related I DIDN'T have! More, I think, that they cold afford it! Having found it apparently in a rummage bin at a quid shop!
But yup, I HAVE had a rather exhaustive collection of American Eagle 'fake' Harley socks, coffee mugs and T-Shrt's from distant, mostly now thankfully 'ex' relatives, over the years. Oh, and a Wallace and Grommet, 'side-car' toothbrush and shaving brush holder?!?!? THAT was actually quite charming, in its own way! ____________________ My Webby'Tef's-tQ, loads of stuff about my bikes, my Land-Rovers, and the stuff I do with them!
