Two of the top dealer-only magazines have recognized several of the PowersportsU supporters for their innovative new products. Roland Sands Design and DragonFire have won “Best Of The Web” honors from Motorcycle & Powersports News, while DragonFire, Küryakyn, Mustang, Renthal and Vance & Hines were all editor’s choices for the Top 50 new products of 2013 announced in PowerSports Business.
PowerSports Business’ Nifty 50 contest has recognized the industry’s leading innovations each spring. The PSB February issue gave DragonFire’s new XL HighBack seats, Küryakyn’s LED Saddlebag Extensions, Mustang’s Tripper Fastback seats for the Bolt, Renthal’s “Intellilevers” for sportbikes and Vance & Hines Super Radius pipes Top 50 honors.
The top 50 products from aftermarket suppliers, distributors and service providers are determined by a group of editors from publications such as Rider, SnowGoer and Thunder Press.
Last month Motorcycle & Powersports News noted that DragonFire’s Locked & Secured LoBoy Doors and Roland Sands Design’s Barfly jackets were in the 25 most popular new products with the dealers who check out the publication’s website.
Rather than having editors pick the winning products, MPN used Google analytics to determine which products had the highest click-through rate from the website during the course of the entire year. These are the products the dealers want to know more about themselves rather than what the magazine staff thinks they might want to know more about.
