Innovation is always on the horizon in the motorcycling world, and that means there’s no shortage of new kit being released, but how can you keep track of everything when it’s moving so quickly?

We’ve scoured every corner of the motorcycle industry for all the newest kit releases, so you can stay up to date with the latest and greatest every week – right here, with MCN’s New Kit News.

New kit this week

Keep your mitts clean and protected when working on your bike with Oxford’s reuseable workshop gloves. They’re waterproof and washable, with a flexible non-slip PU coating on the palms to ensure you always have a firm grip of your tools. Sizes range from medium to extra large and they come in packs of three. CE certified for mechanical use.
New to HJC’s 2024 range, the C10 features a lightweight polycarbonate shell with a generous eye port and the firm’s Advanced Channelling Ventilation system for full longitudinal airflow. Certification is to ECE 22.06, and it comes in a range of sizes from 2XS to 2XL. Graphics include this snazzy Brad Binder rep.
Keep it casual and stay dry this summer with this slim fit CE AA certified hoodie. The outer softshell construction features ripstop for durability and a waterproof Aquashell membrane, with a storm flap at the front and a detachable hood. Protection includes D3O CE level 1 armour for shoulders, elbows and back, and it’s available in navy or black.
Although they’re easy to fit, removing cable ties can be a whole different ball game if you want to avoid damaging delicate wiring looms - which is where this neat tool comes in. The twin flat blades fit neatly under the tie’s head, allowing you to snip it off confidently with one squeeze of the rubber gripped spring loaded handles.
Developed in partnership with legendary bike builder Roland Sands Design, UK wheel specialists Dymag’s latest product has been crafted for optimised performance on both road and track. Debuted on Peter Hickman BMW S1000RR at this year’s NW200, the Sector are available to pre-order in a wide range of sizes and colours.

Last weeks’s releases

Motocross and mountain bike powerhouse Fox Racing have entered the adventure sector with three all new jackets, the Recon (£999.99), Defend (£789.99) and Ranger (featured). Featuring fully seam sealed Gore-Tex materials and D3O protectors for elbow, shoulder and back, the philosophy is for a lightweight chassis with exceptional performance in all weathers.
A new addition to Roadskin’s range of highly rated riding jeans, these two-piece waterproofs are available individually or as a bundle with free travel pouch. They have fully bonded seams designed to keep you dry in even the heaviest of downpours, and feature a mesh lining for comfort and breathability. Sizes range from S to XXL.
Boasting a CE AAA rating and level 2 armour for shoulder, elbow, hip and knee, this one piece race suit is constructed from 1.2mm cowhide with extra reinforcements at impact zones. It has large stretch panels to ensure maximum manoeuvrability, and generous perforations for airflow. A two piece option is also available.
Free yourself from garden hoses and extension leads with this portable rechargeable pressure washer. It has an integrated 20 litre tank and 40V lithium-Ion battery that should give up to 24 minutes operating time. Included is a range of lances for different applications, 5m of hose and a litre of Muc-Off’s Nano-Tech cleaner.
Designed to fit almost any bike, this duffle bag is constructed from a seamless 500D PVC shell to ensure maximum protection against rain, water and spray. It’s been temperature tested from -30°C to 70°C and mounts by looping around racks, rails or grab handles. A wide roll top closure makes it easy to fill, and it comes in black or grey.

Products Editor, shed enthusiast and tournament winner. Justin has been a regular contributor to MCN since 2009, working as a road tester, roving reporter and feature writer. He has built up a wealth of experience in putting the latest machinery through its paces, as well as subjecting every aspect of motorcycle kit to the rigours of real-world riding. A lifelong two-wheel enthusiast with a deep passion for motorcycles, Justin first hit the streets at 16 on a Suzuki TS50X and has since owned more bikes than he cares to remember. A spell as a London courier saw him cut his biking teeth on some of the country’s busiest roads and as an instructor he has striven to give many a novice the grounding to do the same. Justin has ridden on four continents (so far), both as a solo rider and as a tour guide, tackling terrain from the perilous mountain roads of the Himalayas to rugged South African dirt tracks, sweeping North American highways and the glorious passes of the European Alps. He likes nothing more than an early start for a full day in the saddle and takes great pleasure in sniffing out those roads less travelled – to Justin, every bike is an adventure bike. When not testing products, Justin can usually be found in his shed, where he maintains, restores and rebuilds not just bikes, but anything mechanical that comes his way. He currently owns a 2010 Triumph Sprint 1050 ST, 1998 Yamaha TRX 850 and is running a 2024 Harley-Davidson CVO Pan America as a long termer.
