Ped Baker, 16 November 2011 13:49

Lewis Leathers Countryman No385 jacket, £675 Miles covered/time: 500/one month What’s good: The adage “buy well, buy once” has never been more apt when it comes to the Lewis Countryman jacket. Hand made in London, the jacket is an exact copy of a garment originally made by Lewis in the 1940s. No detail has been skipped in this replica – ...

Glove review: Held Akira Tex

Ped Baker, 30 July 2009 10:37

What’s good? Perfect for a typical British summer. These waterproof gloves give a featherlite touch on the bars but with a Pukka Gore-Tex lining. They also feature a rubber visor wiper stiched along the left index finger, something all waterproof and winter gloves should come with. Compare and buy motorcycle gloves What’s not? I don’t know whether it’s due to ...

Review: Solvent-based visor cleaners

Ped Baker, 10 July 2009 17:29

If your visor is caked in insect debris you could use a spot of washing up liquid. Place the smallest amount on a towel (tear resistant ones are best), wet the towel, ...
