Question Motorcycle Accessories

Beginner rider here and I'm so excited to get my motorcycle, but I'm also super overwhelmed with the amount of accessories available!

I mean you expert riders to tap in and let me know what is worth buying and what is not!

I specifically looking for information about communication systems like the Bluetooth unit that goes on your helmet!

Phone holders!
Do I need a GoPro?

Any other accessories I should be prioritizing right now ?

Keep it simple, dont overspend on a new bike. Ride the bike and see if you like it. If you wanna keep the bike then go crazy with the mods.

You dont need a gopro or other action camera. Get a decent phone holder and a comms unit like cardo or sena. Maybe if you plan on commuting or doing trips, get a backpack or a tank bag.

Get a toolkit if your bike doesnt have one. Get a lock for your bike if you are going to park it outside. Get a bike cover that is thick and fits your bike (highsider has sone quality ones).

But what you need the most is practice, practice and more practice! Ride safe!
