Product review: Moto-trek Comet 350

Adam Child, 30 July 2012 12:30

Moto-trek Comet 350, £100 day hire (or £34,464 to buy)Miles covered/time: 450/four weeks, plus two weeks living. What’s good: It combines a luxurious motorhome with a spacious garage, rather than having either a motorhome and trailer or the more commonly used van and caravan like most racers. The front of the Comet accommodates up to four people on the move, ...

Product review: BMW bike cover

Steve Farrell, 30 July 2012 12:21

BMW bike cover, £64 Time used: 10 months What’s good: Typically of BMW accessories, it’s well designed and made. BMW supplied it when I had a G650GS as a long-term test bike. Now that’s gone but I still like to use this on my own motorcycles. It’s easily big enough to accommodate a middleweight with fairing and luggage rack. It’s ...

What’s up with my Triumph TT600’s electrics?

MCN, 25 July 2012 15:49

Q. My 2002 Triumph TT600 has started to behave strangely. One morning all the indicators including the dash lights disappeared. The horn is not working either. At the same time both trip meters and the clock reset themselves after I switch off the ignition. A. There is one fuse in charge of the horn, indicators, stop lights, instrument memory and ...

Product review: R&G heated grips

Steve Farrell, 25 July 2012 14:37

R&G heated grips, £40 Time used: Four months What’s good: Bike manufacturers’ heated grips can cost £250. This pair is £40 and works perfectly well. The control box can be a weakness on aftermarket grips likes these. The box on the £80 Oxford Products pair these replaced was awkward to use and stopped working. But this one is easy to ...

Mark Holmes, 25 July 2012 13:36

Bags Connection Ballistic Quick Lock Evo GS tank bag, £198.20Miles covered/time: 3000/two months What’s good: This tankbag seems fairly robustly constructed. It also lives up to the ‘Quick Lock’ description in its product name, in that it is quick and easy to fix to the top of your bike’s fuel tank (in my case, the tank of a Kawasaki ZZR1400). ...

Marc Abbott, 06 July 2012 15:27

The Ken Fox Hell Riders: a Journey With the Wall of Death, £14.99Time spent reading/poring over photos: Five days What's good? As far as motorcycling books go, this stands out among the crowd. It’s a really intelligently written and photographed document of the Ken Fox Wall of Death as it travels the country. It captures the sound and scent of ...

Product review: Muc-off chain cleaner

Marc Abbott, 25 June 2012 14:36

Muc-off chain cleaner, £7Time used: One year What’s good: The first time I used this spray-on chain cleaner I wondered how I’d ever done without it. My humblest apologies for trotting out what sounds like marketing-speak, but on this occasion it’s true. Put simply, you spray this on your chain after washing the bike, and then wipe away with a ...

Product review: Tucano Urbano off-road and custom-bike cover

Steve Farrell, 25 June 2012 14:08

Tucano Urbano off-road and custom-bike cover, £40.99Time owned: Nine months What’s good: Some covers I’ve used rub on bodywork under the motion of the wind, damaging paintwork over time. This has a silky-soft lining which should prevent that. It’s easy to sling over the bike, roomy enough to accommodate a top box and has holes along the hem for a ...

Product review: R&G Superbike Cover

Steve Farrell, 21 June 2012 16:28

R&G Superbike Cover, £43 Time used: One year What’s good: It has an elasticated hem to keep it on the bike, plus holes to thread a security chain through. There are air vents to let moisture escape and a foam insert to protect your tank. It’s waterproof (as you’d expect), heat resistant and affordably priced. What’s not: It’s small. R&G ...
