Suit review: Spyke Speed Evo

Rob Hull, 23 December 2009 11:24

Spyke Speed Evo one-piece suit, £1200 Miles covered/time: 6000/one year What’s good? This kangaroo and cowhide mix leather suit fits like the proverbial glove – that might be because it’s cut for Italians with broad shoulders and chest and stumpy legs. It’s mega comfortable and such a high spec. The carbon inserts on the outside of the shoulders, elbows and ...

Rob Hull, 04 November 2009 15:59

X-Lite X802 Replica £449.99Miles covered/time: 5000/four months What’s good? I decided to give X-Lite a chance again after owning an X801RR a couple of years ago. Save £££s on motorcycle helmets It was average but never really measured up to other top of the range race lids. The X802 has broken into that top league though. The two biggest changes ...

Helmet review: AGV GP Tech

Rob Hull, 03 July 2009 13:10

Product name: AGV GP Tech, £399.99Miles covered/time: 5000/one yearContact: www.moto-direct.co.uk What’s good? Best thing about it: It’s a really close fitting lid, but not uncomfortably so, and as a result it feels like an absolute featherweight and the wind noise for a racing helmet is good quality. It’s performed perfectly from day one, survived a 2,300 mile two-day trip to ...

Akito Desert Suit review

Rob Hull, 28 May 2009 14:06

Akito Desert suit, £179.98Miles covered:2000/one yearWhat’s good? With such a massive range of similar adventure-style suits out there, it’s incredible that this suit has all these features for under £200! I love the fact it’s totally versatile. There are three stages to the jacket: the heavy-duty polyamide outer, a removable thermal liner and also a removable waterproof membrane. So you ...

Rob Hull, 15 May 2009 17:03

Written by Mick Walker Breedon Books £19.99 (from £13.77 on Amazon.co.uk) Little Bloke, Giant Heart! Bill Ivy, the 1967 125cc world champion, lived fully the pulsating life of that great decade in which he became a factory rider, riding capricious 125 and 250cc V4 two-strokes for Yamaha. Ivy looked like he could have been the bass player in the Rolling ...

Helmet review: Arai Tour X

Rob Hull, 11 May 2009 11:10

Best thing about it: Versatility is the key – you can choose whether to have the full-on off-road look with goggles or fit a visor. Really quick and easy to adapt between the two. Compare and buy motorcycle helmets Worst thing about it: I got it to use primarily as a road lid with the visor to wear on a ...

Boot review: Puma 1000

Rob Hull, 07 May 2009 11:34

Best thing about it: When your foot is in it, it’s one of the most comfortable boots I’ve worn. Loads a feel through the sole, very water-resistant for a non-WP boot and all the Puma kit has a certain stylish stigma attached. Worst thing about it: The ratchet across the back of the boot can sometimes loop over the top ...
