In June, we are focusing on the Hepco & Becker brand.
Since its foundation in Pirmasens, Germany, in 1975, Hepco & Becker has stood for high-quality and well-designed motorcycle accessories. With innovative luggage systems, protective solutions and a wide range of accessories, this long-established company has become a fixture in the motorcycle scene.
Whether for touring bikes, adventure bikes or everyday vehicles, Hepco & Becker offers tailor-made products for over 1,000 motorcycle models, including older models. The large selection of cases, racks, protective bars and other components impresses with its durability, functionality and high quality – characteristics that even renowned motorcycle manufacturers rely on for their original equipment.
Paul Ehrhardt -Senior-
Founder and Managing Director
The success story of Hepco & Becker began with the clear goal of developing motorcycle accessories that combine functionality and durability. Engineer Franz Becker, a visionary founder, started the company as a one-man operation. Unfortunately, he died in a tragic accident that same year. His student Paul Ehrhard (Senior), who was employed at the time, then took over the business. The name was chosen to commemorate Franz Becker and to reflect the takeover of Hepting & Co. Over the decades, it has developed into a dynamic medium-sized company backed by a dedicated team. Motorcyclists around the world trust in the quality and reliability of the brand.
The Hepco & Becker logo features a rhinoceros – a symbol of robustness, strength and tenacity. The rhinoceros represents the values that have always defined the brand: independence and durability. Like the rhinoceros in the wild, Hepco & Becker products are not easily deterred. They are built to withstand even the toughest conditions. This philosophy is reflected in the high quality and durability of all accessories – reliability that motorcyclists worldwide trust.
A highlight of the Zieger range are the license plate holders, which have been specially developed for sporty naked and street bikes. They combine minimalist design with maximum stability. Made from high-quality steel or aluminium, they offer a perfect fit for many popular motorcycle models. Adjustable indicator brackets, integrated reflector holders and simple mounting options make Zieger licence plate holders the ideal choice for anyone who values a clean look and reliable function – naturally with road approval and in the usual Zieger quality.
At Hepco & Becker, you will not only find luggage systems, but also an extensive selection of high-quality accessories that make your riding experience noticeably safer and more comfortable. Whether crash bars, centre stands or additional headlights – every product is precisely tailored to your motorcycle and ensures optimum protection in everyday use and on long tours. The robust protective bars made of stainless steel or with a powder coating reliably protect the engine, tank and fairing from damage in the event of a fall or contact with the ground – while emphasising the lines of your bike. Hepco & Becker stands for durable quality, well thought-out design and solutions that offer you more safety, comfort and style on every ride.
Sustainability is more than just lip service for Hepco & Becker – it is a real commitment. The longevity of the products is supported by a qualified and fast repair service that has received widespread praise. Manufacturing is carried out in accordance with recognised environmental standards and responsible use of resources. The origin and processing of the leather are also subject to strict controls that ensure animal welfare and environmentally friendly tanning processes in accordance with European standards.
In addition, Hepco & Becker manufactures components and carrier systems for over 1,000 motorcycle models – from current bikes to youngtimers and oldies, which are produced in small series. Individual customer requirements are implemented in a targeted manner, while regional jobs are secured and environmentally friendly production is guaranteed.
