Product review: Proguard Custom Fleximonitors earphones

Michael Neeves, 30 November 2011 15:28

Proguard Custom Fleximonitors earphones, £239.95Miles covered/time used: 2000/two months What’s good: They block out as much noise as a good foam earplug (and actually more than the firm’s own custom earplugs) and let you listen to your music. These earphones are what I’ve spent my biking life looking for and I’m really impressed. Even in-ear headphones are almost inaudible over ...

Glove review: Alpinestars GPX

Michael Neeves, 09 October 2009 17:40

Alpinestars GPX Glove £79.95Miles covered/time: 6000/4 months What’s good? Whenever I wear these ‘shortie’ gloves it means one thing: I’m somewhere nice and hot! Save money on motorcycle gloves I’ve worn them on sunny launches, on my road trip to Sardinia last year and to Ibiza and southern Spain this year, but they only come out around the south of ...

Luggage review: Oxford Deluxe Tailpack

Michael Neeves, 09 October 2009 17:36

Oxford Deluxe Tailpack £89.99 (£80.99 in MCN shop)Miles covered/time: 4200/three months What’s good? This fits easily and securely onto the back of my Streetfighter, but I have to make sure I pull it back as far as possible to the rear of the bike to give me room to move around in the seat. Save money on motorcycle luggage If ...

Product review: Michelin road maps

Michael Neeves, 09 October 2009 17:25

Michelin road maps £4.49Miles covered/time: 50,000/seven years What’s good? Sat navs are good for finding a tricky address or location, or if you have to be somewhere fast, but there’s nothing like a map for holiday riding. Save money on maps Laying a huge map out in front of you at your hotel breakfast table before a day’s ride is ...

Helmet review: Arai Freeway

Michael Neeves, 01 October 2009 14:00

Arai Freeway open face helmet £179.99 (£169.99 on MCN Shop)Miles covered/time: 10,000/5 years. What’s good? I’ve worn this on a Harley-Davidson across Australia, on holiday in southern Europe and on hot sunny days in England to pop to the shops or to the office. Save money on motorcycle helmets On my recent trip to Ibiza I strapped it to the ...

Trouser review: Dainese SF Pelle

Michael Neeves, 01 October 2009 12:00

Dainese SF Pelle leather pants £289.99Miles covered/time: 20,000/18 months What’s good? These zip to my Dainese jacket, so get close to providing the kind of protection you’d expect from full leathers, although the fit is much looser than proper race leathers. Save money on leather motorcycle trousers This was a strange feeling when I did a track day at Mondello ...

Jacket review: Dainese Gran Premo Pelle

Michael Neeves, 30 September 2009 11:30

Dainese Gran Premo Pelle Jacket £399.99Miles covered/time: 6000/4 months What’s good? Dainese are brilliant at making motorcycle leather jackets. They’re stylish, fit beautifully and I can unfortunately attest to the fact that they crash well too, thanks to sturdy leather and decent body armour. Save money on leather jackets I’ve got a Dainese Back Space G1-G2-back protector (£39.99) fitted in ...

Dunlop Qualifier RRs pass the toughest test

Michael Neeves, 16 September 2009 16:41

I've just returned from a 3200-mile trip to Spain and back on my Ducati Streetfighter, and the Dunlop Qualifier RRs I'd fitted worked like a dream. Compare and buy motorcycle tyres They offered the grip to go berserk through the Pyrenees, were excellent in the wet and they've returned to the UK with plenty of miles left in them. You ...

Michael Neeves, 25 March 2008 16:18
