A disc lock is one of the best motorcycle security devices. They’re cheap, portable and easy to use. Sure, they’re not perfect and even the best disc locks can be defeated. But they’re a great additional layer of security that instantly rules out a proportion of motorcycle thieves who’d rather move on to the next …
Garage door security is an important consideration, especially for bikers. To prevent theft, locking your bike with a solid chain into a ground anchor is a great option. But stopping the little toe-rags from getting into the garage in the first place is a better option. In this review we cover some great garage door …
Summer motorcycle gloves have a tough job on their hands (pardon the pun). First they have to offer seriously good protection but in contrast to that, they have to offer lots of feel. The two aren’t usually great bedfellows. Anyone can stick a load of armour onto a glove but not everyone can do it …
The guy above probably think he’s cool but in my opinion, there’s never a good time to ride your motorcycle wearing just a T-shirt – but, each to their own. Yes, I admit it, riding your motorcycle in the summer can be hot, sticky, and downright uncomfortable in a heavy leather jacket but the choice …
Kevlar motorcycle jeans are a great choice if you want decent levels of protection when out riding but you don’t want to look too biker when you’re off the bike. For those who spend a majority of their time under 40mph; riding to work, heading into town or just out for a weekend ride, kevlar …

Chest protectors aren’t as common as back protectors for most motorcyclists but in the world of MX and off-road, they’re a popular choice. Most bikers I know find them overkill for road riding, some jackets and leathers come with them fitted as standard. However, if you’re doing a track day, you might want to beef …
If you’re touring in Europe, you’ll have to carry a hi-viz vest with you because all the usual countries you get to Europe by bike, all require you to at least carry a hi-vis on you, to be worn if you break down or have an accident. In many countries, France, Italy, Ireland, Belgium, Austria …
Retro motorcycle helmets are becoming more popular and there’s a wider range than ever. They are the opposite of a modern race-replica helmet. Fizzy drinks advertising and in-your-face graphics are out, replaced with chunky lines, simple designs and classy colour schemes. The great thing is that even though they look retro, they all feature state …
It’s no surprise that sales of leather motorcycle trousers have declined over the past 10 years. Adventure bike gear is in fashion and that means that leather trousers – the staple for bikers over the past 30 years – is no longer the go-to choice for most bikers. That’s a shame because nothing quite fits …
If you’re planning on touring and considering a night or two under the stars, finding a decent tent that’s compact enough to transport on a motorbike can be tough.

That’s me, high siding out of Woodcote at Silverstone during an 848 Challenge race. I don’t know how fast I was going but as I clicked into 4th gear, the rear end stepped out so quickly and snapped back so fast that as I was flung over the handlebars I just had enough time to …
There’s the old pub debate: do you really need expensive tools? Some would argue the best toolset is a cheap one and you just replace the bits that break. Others swear by a premium set. The truth? Well it’s quite easy. Do you want to round off all your nuts, slip and gouge your fairing …

As bikers, we don’t like rain. Especially when it’s the middle of summer and meant to be sunny. Luckily, we don’t have to face the situation pictured above but even if you’re in a short downpour, no-one wants to get caught in the rain without waterproofs. It’ll make you cold and wet and ruin your …
Table of Contents Let’s be honest – lubing your motorcycle’s chain is one of those things you never do as often as you should. But did you know, you can get over three times the mileage from your chain (and to an extent your sprockets) if you regularly lube it up. If you are the …

My first motorcycle adventure was almost 20 years ago. I crammed what I could into a rucksack, stuffed a few other bits into a tank bag and headed off on the adventure of a lifetime. With a rough route scribbled on a piece of paper and an even rougher sense of direction, it felt like …
Is there such a thing as a fully waterproof motorcycle glove? In years of riding, I’ve found that it’s down to how you wear your gloves as well as what they’re made from. It’s no use having totally waterproof gloves if the rainwater runs down your jacket’s sleeves and back into the gloves. You’ll end …
If you’re looking for Gore-Tex motorcycle boots, it’s probably because you don’t like wet feet. Gore-Tex is the name in waterproof breathable membranes.

For some people, the idea of motorcycling is to get away from it all, so the thought of riding with a pillion and having them able to talk to you might sound like a nightmare. However, with modern bikes packing so much technology, the lure of connectivity has never been greater. A Bluetooth headset can …
A textile jacket is easier to wear than a leather jacket. They’re lighter and more flexible too. For all-day comfort, they’re a great choice. They’re generally also a lot cheaper than a leather jacket, although it goes without saying, you can still spend a lot of money on textile kit. One of the main benefits …
There are more budget helmets on the market now than ever but which ones are the ones you should be shortlisting? We don’t all have £500 to buy a top of the range lid but a smaller budget doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice safety or features. If you buy into the SHARP motorcycle helmet …
Adventure motorcycle helmets help create an authentic rugged adventure biker look but they’re not just an image thing.

Your helmet is the most important and perhaps the most expensive motorcycle gear you own.

These days we’re spoilt for choice when it comes to motorcycle touring tyres. The thing is, a touring motorcycle is not so easy to define these days. Years ago it was a motorcycle with a massive fairing, built-in panners and a big engine, ridden (mainly) by old men who’d been riding before you were even …
Did you know, Barry Sheene was one of the first bikers to wear a back protector? He fashioned his own from old motorcycle visors, joined together like the shell of a woodlouse.

All bikers are murderers. Flies, bugs and anything stupid enough to float four foot off the ground on a nice twisty road or race track are all fair game – and the majority of them seem to want to end it all by whacking you on the visor at 70mph. But it’s the bugs that …
If you own a motorcycle, the chances are you’re going to need to perform some maintenance from time to time and a multi-tool is a seriously handy weapon in any rider’s arsenal.

A motorcycle ground anchor is a brilliant anti-theft device. When we see images of motorbikes being stolen, they’re most likely dramatic shots of angle-grinder-wielding scumbags attacking a chain, with sparks flying. But did you know that outside of city-centres the most common way that motorbikes are stolen is by being lifted into a van. If …
Your bike is making you deaf. That is, of course, if you don’t wear any form of hearing protection while riding. Just an hour on your bike at motorway speeds is enough time to cause hearing damage. “I’m just nipping out on the bike for an hour to damage my hearing, love. See you in …
A proper base layer makes riding so much more comfortable. They’re far better than just wearing a T-shirt under your motorcycle leathers in summer or a long-sleeve in winter.

If you want to look the part, leather motorcycle jackets are the way forward. Not only are they stylish, warm and comfortable, but leather is also extremely abrasion-resistant.

TomTom and Garmin are the biggest players in the motorcycle GPS market. They are also renowned for their always-in-competition devices.
