Looking for a way to make your intercom, MP3 player, radar detector and cellphone all play nice together? J&M was showing off a belt-clip box that does just that, the Integratr IV.

Cobra was showing a simplified EFI programming module. Clip it into your system, and adjust low- mid- and high-range circuits with a screwdriver--no computer link required.

Want that tat' look on your head? Bell Helmet's $210 Apex is just the thing.

Progressive Suspension's Air Ride ($1,800 for the shock and remove electronic adjuster unit), is so simple, you could drop your bike's ride height when you hit main street, and jack it up when you want some clearance on twisty roads. Nice.

Alpinestars new SMX-4 ($199) is designed to be more comfortable to walk in, while still offering a racetrack look.

Keeping cool is all the rage this year. AlloyMX's new $149 pant and $45 jersey walk the walk.

T-Bag's latest is a suction-cup-mount tankbag that doesn't destory a cruiser's lines ($65).

The company also offers a trick magnetic-mount tank bag.

Lots of cool stuff at the Troy Lee Designs booth, including this trick Peace & Wheelies helmet in 25th anniversary colors ($450).

Another view. A sign that day-glo is on the way back in?

And for the kids? Hot Wheels pants. Nice.

17-inch wheels are soooo last year. Next up? 20-inchers like these from Avon that are perfect for new-school bobbers.

Why didn't anyone think of this before? A finger glove with a magnet on the end so you can pick up the washer you just dropped into that impossible-to-reach place.

When Scorpion says "Crack Head," they mean these cool helmets ($225 a pop).

Pastels--including pink--are hot this year. These are Scorpion Paradise helmets ($149).

Here's a good idea: replacement clutch pressure plates with removable friction plate from Barnett.

Cruz Tools is offering a new tool set with a mini-ratchet ($40), complete with lifetime guarantee.
 

How about a smaller package? Here's Cruz-Tools' Outback'r multi-tool.

New for '06 from Scott is the new No Sweat google, complete with top air deflector and optional nose protector ($50).

Acerbis offers these innovative handguards for ATVs, but we're tempted to try a pair on a sportbike for cold-weather commuting.

Lynn Vick Industries was offering a four-circuit plug-in EFI adjustment module that looked pretty trick.

Ancra's latest is the Track Star adjustable wheel chock system ($79.95).

If you've ever tried to wrestle in the filter on a Honda CRF450, you'll walk, not run, to your nearest K&N dealer for this $80 solution.

Minibikes' smaller coolant-circulating impellers demand lower-viscosity coolant, and Liquid Performance offers a solution ($15.95 for 64 ounces).

It's hard to tell from the picture, but there's a fully adjustable AirHawk cushion built into this seat ($640). But then, that's the idea.

Wouldn't you be the hero of your kid with a full-on set of McGrath sheets like these from smooth industries? $119 for the full and complete set, including dust ruffle.

Bad clown face mask: coulrophobes need not apply.

If you've been bummed about your inability to get Held tankbags in the states for the past few years, bum no more. The company is bringing in a complete line that ranges from $89 to $200.

Along with tankbags, look for a complete line of high-tech textile jackets.
