About Reda Innovations
Reda Innovations was founded on a straightforward mission: build products that solve real problems for real riders. Ron Reda launched the company with that philosophy at its core, and it has guided every product the brand has brought to market since. Headquartered in Orland Park, Illinois, Reda Innovations has grown from a single clever idea into a trusted name among Harley-Davidson riders and touring motorcyclists around the world.
The REDA Gas Can – A Rider's Best Insurance Policy
The product that put Reda Innovations on the map is the iconic REDA Gas Can, first introduced at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in 2006. Designed specifically to fit the hard saddlebags of Harley-Davidson touring bikes — while leaving roughly 90% of bag space free for other gear — the REDA Gas Can solves one of the most frustrating problems a long-distance rider can face: running out of fuel miles from the nearest station. With over 1,200,000 units in use worldwide, the REDA Gas Can is constructed from a multi-layer HDPE NANO plastic that makes it completely vapor-proof, and it uses special Viton rubber gaskets to prevent spills and contain fumes. It is EPA and CARB certified, meeting environmental standards in all 50 states, and is available through more than 500 Harley-Davidson dealerships worldwide. The spout stores internally within the can itself, and the design fits both the right and left saddlebag — a simple but elegant touch that speaks to the brand's attention to rider convenience.
A Full Lineup of Rider-Focused Accessories
Beyond the flagship gas can, Reda Innovations has expanded into a thoughtful lineup of motorcycle accessories that address everyday riding challenges:
- REDA Cycle Stick – A multi-purpose LED light that mounts to saddlebags or a tour-pak and doubles as an emergency flare, providing both visibility and roadside safety in a single compact tool.
- REDA Saddlebag Locks – Fastener lock systems engineered specifically for Harley-Davidson Touring models, offering a more secure alternative to factory hardware and giving riders added peace of mind when leaving their bike unattended.
- REDA Helmet Hooker & Cable Locks – Convenient, lightweight locking solutions for securing helmets and jackets to your motorcycle, eliminating the need to haul gear every time you leave your bike.
- REDA Pipe Spinners – An innovative electrical accessory available in multiple pipe sizes (1-¼" through 2-½" and beyond), adding a distinctive functional flair to a motorcycle's exhaust setup.
Engineering Excellence, Built on Rider Feedback
What sets Reda Innovations apart is its commitment to continuous improvement driven by real-world rider input. The brand has openly evolved its products over the years — refining material selection, manufacturing processes, and design details in direct response to customer experience. This iterative, feedback-driven approach reflects a brand culture that genuinely listens to the community it serves. Whether you are a weekend cruiser or a cross-country touring rider, Reda Innovations builds accessories that earn their place in your saddlebag.
