geared up from head...

Helmet and protective gear 

Safety is always the number one priority for riders. Start by choosing a high-quality helmet that offers optimal protection in the event of an accident. Complete your outfit with gloves, a jacket, and abrasion-resistant pants.

We recommend our 2023 favorite, the Neotec 2 helmet by "Shoei", which offers a helmet combining durability and style, so you can ride with full confidence.

...to the feet!

Protective boots and shoes 

Feet are exposed and vulnerable when riding a motorcycle. Opt for boots or shoes specially designed for riders, with ankle and shin reinforcements for maximum protection.

Forma offers with its Freccia elegant and functional boots that meet the needs of safety-conscious riders.

The essential companion for all your motorcycle rides: Shapeheart!

Rain gear 

The weather can be unpredictable, especially with the arrival of autumn. To stay dry, invest in quality rain gear: such as oversuit combinations, waterproof jackets, and waterproof gloves.

The Rev'It Nitric 2 H2O jacket offers practical options for staying dry. The jacket's EN343 certification guarantees the quality of the product, giving it good water permeability, good evaporative resistance, and great durability (tensile strength, tear resistance, seam strength, and shrinkage resistance). An integrated hood in the collar will protect you from the rain or cold once you step off your two-wheeler.

Smart phone accessories 

With technology omnipresent in our lives, having an adequate phone mount while riding can prove indispensable. The Shapeheart brand stands out by offering the best phone mount for riders. The innovative attachment system secures the phone on the motorcycle tank while keeping the phone within reach thanks to its magnetic sleeve. The system therefore offers a clear view and easy access to navigation while keeping your eyes on what matters most: the road. 

Practical luggage 

If you plan to carry personal belongings during your rides, functional luggage is essential. Water-resistant panniers, ergonomic backpacks, and luggage racks can make transporting your gear easy and safe.

Kappa also offers cleverly designed luggage solutions to meet the needs of riders, notably with the Monokey K40. Its 40L capacity is more than sufficient and can hold a full-face helmet or cases. Finally, in the team, we particularly appreciate the original and very stylish design of the Monokey K40.

As always, the new season offers an opportunity to start fresh. By wisely choosing your equipment — from helmets to phone mounts and protective clothing — you can make the most of every ride in complete safety. So gear up properly and get ready for an exciting and worry-free riding season.
