EU Motorcycle Gear Price Index
What does motorcycle gear actually cost in the EU — and how big is the price gap between retailers for the same gear? These figures are compiled from 119,575 live models across 15 EU retailers and 677 brands, of which 67,028are sold by two or more retailers we compare. Prices are the item "from" price, EU VAT included.

Updated 2026-07-27. "Typical" is the median cheapest price across models in each category; "avg price gap" is the average difference between the cheapest and dearest retailer for models sold by two or more of them.
How this is measured
Every figure is derived from live retailer pricing feeds, refreshed daily. We count one entry per model (colour variants of the same helmet are grouped, not double-counted), and use each model's cheapest current "from" price — the item price, with EU VAT included. Shipping varies by destination and is shown at each retailer's checkout, so it is not part of these figures. Obvious feed errors (placeholder and near-zero prices) are excluded.
The "average price gap" is the mean difference between the cheapest and most expensive retailer for models that at least two of our retailers sell — i.e. what a rider can overpay by buying the same item from the first shop they find instead of comparing. Narrowing that gap is why the site exists.
