Top 10 Must-Have Accessories for Your SurRon or Talaria
Owning a SurRon or Talaria electric dirt bike opens up a world of off-road adventure, but if you want to get the most out of your ride, the right accessories can make all the d difference. Whether you’re cruising private trails or tackling tough terrain, adding a few key upgrades can improve comfort, safety, and performance.
Here’s a breakdown of the top 10 must-have accessories to take your SurRon or Talaria experience to the next level.
1. Helmet
It sounds obvious, but a high-quality helmet is non-negotiable. Whether you're riding trails or open land, protecting your head should be your top priority. Look for DOT-approved or ECE-certified helmets designed for off-road riding. These provide the protection you need and are typically lightweight for comfort on long rides.
For safety guidelines and helmet standards, check out the UK Motorcycle Helmet Safety Regulations.
2. Protective Riding Gear
In addition to a helmet, you’ll want solid protective gear. Gloves, knee pads, and elbow guards protect against falls, scrapes, and impact injuries. Look for gear that’s tough but breathable—so you stay cool while staying protected.
Good riding boots are also important. They give you better grip on the foot pegs and protect your ankles from knocks or burns.
3. Upgraded Foot Pegs
The stock foot pegs on many bikes are okay for casual rides, but for serious off-roading, wide, grippy foot pegs are a game-changer. They provide better traction underfoot and improve stability, especially when standing on technical terrain.
4. LED Headlights
If you ride early in the morning or at dusk, upgrading to high-powered LED headlights is a must. They increase visibility and help others see you coming. Plus, they look great! For guidance on lighting regulations, refer to the UK Government vehicle lighting standards.
5. Rearview Mirrors
Even off-road riders need to be aware of what’s behind them. Rearview mirrors are particularly useful on trails shared with other riders or vehicles. Some detachable mirrors are designed specifically for dirt bikes, so you can remove them when they’re not needed.
6. Phone Mount
If you like to track your ride, navigate trails, or record your routes, a sturdy phone mount is an essential add-on. Choose a weatherproof mount with a strong grip to handle bumps and vibrations. It’s also handy for keeping an eye on your battery app or GPS.
7. Heavy-Duty Kickstand
The factory kickstands on many dirt bikes can struggle on uneven ground. An upgraded heavy-duty kickstand makes parking easy, even in mud or soft dirt. Look for models that are wider at the base for extra stability.
8. Handlebar Guards
Off-road trails are often lined with branches, rocks, and debris. Handlebar guards (also called handguards) protect your hands and your brake/clutch levers from damage. They also improve grip by deflecting mud and water.
9. Chain Guide & Guards
If you’re hitting rough terrain, keeping your chain in place is critical. A chain guide and guard system protects the chain from coming off the sprocket and shields it from rocks and dirt. It’s a small upgrade that can prevent a big headache.
10. Upgraded Suspension
The stock suspension works, but if you’re doing jumps, drops, or technical downhill trails, an upgraded suspension system can drastically improve your ride comfort and control. Look for adjustable suspension so you can fine-tune it based on your weight and riding style.
