Rev’It Air Jacket review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson RRP: £119.99 I really rate this jacket. To be honest, I don’t get to wear it that much in the UK, but on the odd occasion when the weather perks up, there’s nothing better for keeping you cool, comfortable and feeling safe. I’ve probably used it more off- road than on Tarmac,…

Forcefield Limb Tube Knee Protectors review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Tony Carter for 2000 miles RRP: £54.9 I don’t know about you, but I quite like wearing bike jeans and a jacket when the weather’s decent. And as great as bike jeans are, they’re often made uncomfortable by poor fitting knee armour, which is why I invested in Forcefield’s Limb Tube Knee Protectors. They’re a fantastic…

RST One-Piece leathers review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Malc Wheeler RRP: £399.99 RST has built an enviable reputation for making a product that is the match for much more expensive lines and being able to sell at an affordable price. Just £399.99 for a leather suit of this quality has to be a bargain. Made from 1.1 to 1.2mm cowhide, the suit is double…

Interphone F3 Universal Twin Pack intercom review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Tony Carter for 3000 miles RRP: £199.99 Okay, confession time. I’ve tried these things before but secretly I’ve never really wanted them to work too well. For me, one of the joys of riding a bike is that once the helmet is on I can be alone. No phones, no demands on my time, just me and…

TCX X-Street Waterproof boots review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Malc Wheeler for 2000 miles RRP: £89 What a great idea these TCX boots are. They look like normal, everyday, baseball boots and yet they offer far more protection than you would get from your normal trainers. And they are waterproof. Honest, they really are. Mine have just ‘enjoyed’ a week at the Manx Grand…

Shoei XR1100 review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Steve Rose for 50,000 miles RRP: £419.99 It’s my favourite helmet right now because it fits me the best and stays comfier for longer. The lining is still snug, all the vents still work (it’s like switching on the air-con when you flick ’em open) and the visor seal is still perfect after 50,000 miles. Shoei claims it’s…

Harley-Davidson FXRG Textile suit review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Malc Wheeler for 10,000+ miles RRP: £807 This could be a very short feature. The Harley-Davidson FXRG textile two-piece is, without doubt, the finest all weather riding gear I have ever used. There I’ve said it. It arrived in 2008, along with the Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Ultra that was my long-term test bike…

Arai Viper GT helmet review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Steve Rose for 80,000 miles By rights, this helmet should have been retired a long time ago. Four years old and with somewhere around 80,000 miles covered, you can see by the scuffs and scrapes that it hasn’t had an easy life. But the thing is, I can’t stop wearing it. This Viper GT…

Harley-Davidson Ogio Street Rucksack review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 6000miles RRP: £100 This bag’s been everywhere with me. On every launch, on every road test and every trip into the office. It’s been my loyal companion for well over a year now and I’ve been overly impressed by it for several different reasons. It’s comfortable, it’s practical… and it…

Alpinestars GP Pro gloves review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Tony Carter for 10,000+ miles RRP: £1500 I’m on my third pair of these gloves for one simple reason, they work extremely well. The body armour is plentiful and tough. Don’t worry if these gloves look a bit ‘too much’ body armour for you because although they do look like they should be uncomfortable…
