ROAD PRODUCTS PROTECTION FROM THE FULL SQUAD RJays Squad gloves are manufactured from leather and textile, with carbon fibre protection over the knuckles. The Clarino palm uses leather reinforcing panels and a reinforced grip section with dual stitching for the palms and silicone lever grips for enhanced control. Perforated Leather panels and mesh on the fingers deliver maximum ventilation, and the Velcro wrist closure keeps them snugly in place. Whatever else you leave behind, don’t make it your gloves. Hands are valuable, and hard to fix.

Michelin aimed for riding pleasure and safety with the Street2 – it says test results show this tyre has better wet grip on a test track than all the competitors they tested. For those who like a tyre to look good, this one taps into Michelin’s MotoGP DNA for a sporty appearance, while its new tread compound delivers longer-lasting wear. Progressive lateral grooves up front improve performance in the wet, while the rear adds small centre grooves to enhance water film clearance without compromising on grip or long life.
