Sidi B2 Gore-Tex review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 10,000 miles RRP:£224.99 These boots are great. I’ve had them for just over a year now and I’m keen to wear them at every given chance. They fit well, look good and do a damn good job of keeping your feet warm and dry. In fact, never once have my feet…

Furygan Crow two-piece leathers review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Steff Woodhouse for 2,500miles RRP: Jacket £449 / trousers £299 I guess I’m a bit of stickler when it comes to picking my leathers. Probably with good reason too. I had a nasty off a few years back and, although I escaped without any real injuries, my leathers didn’t. in fact, they fared pretty badly.…

BMW Streetguard suit review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Steve Rose for 8000 miles RRP: Jacket £630/trousers £495 Yes, it’s expensive and yes, as you’d expect from BMW it’s made from all manner of high tech materials that keep you warm in winter and cool in summer with a bamboozling spec that means little to any of us, other than posting the question……

Dainese Summer gloves review
Posted
by
Reviwed by: Marc Wheeler for 20,000+ miles RRP: £59.99 There is no question, these Dainese lightweight gloves, the name of which I have long since forgotten, have been the most durable, and versatile, summer gloves I have ever had the pleasure the use. The maiden voyage for the gloves was on a motorcycle launch, Harley-Davidson…

Reviewed by: Marc Wheeler for 6000 miles RRP: £349.99 Cards on the table, I’ve long been an Arai man and I’ve also had several of the brand’s jet style SZ range, doing many thousands of miles in them over the years. So when the X-tend was launched at last year’s Milan show I had to…

Reviewed by: Dave Bell RRP: £314.99 I’ve fallen for this helmet; the fit is fantastic, the styling superb and the quality top spec. This lightweight helmet has numerous features including the Pinlock Maxivision system. This is my first encounter with Pinlock and I must say I am very impressed by it. The Speedview no-fog internal…

Forcefield L2 back protector review

Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 15,000 miles RRP: £104.99 I’m a crasher. Always have been and probably always will be. Which is why I need good quality kit that I can depend on, like Forcefield’s L2 Back Protector. Call me tight, but I’ve had this protector for more than four years now. And I definitely…

Kärcher K4 Pressure washer review

by
Reviewed by: Steff Woodhouse for 3 1⁄2 years RRP: £295 There are things in life that are just great, and the Karcher pressure washer is one of them, I have had the K4 model pictured for many years and to say it has been used is an under statement. On average I guess these machines are designed…

Held Titan race gloves review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 2000miles RRP: £229 If there’s one thing I hate, it’s an ill-fitting glove. We all know how important control is on a motorcycle, so there’s nothing worse than when you go to twist the throttle, but first you’ve got to get past that annoying area of super- baggy leather first. Thankfully,…

TCX RS-2 boots review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 2000miles RRP: £249 Gimmicks. The world’s full of them. When I clocked these boots at the EICMA show last November, I genuinely thought that’s what they would turn out to be. There’s no denying a boot that fits properly is a boot worth having, but I struggled to believe that the…
