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 case of an accident. Complete your outfit with gloves, a jacket, and abrasion-resistant trousers.

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

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

Rain gear 

The weather can be unpredictable, especially with the arrival of autumn. To stay dry, invest in quality rain gear: such as overalls, 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 resistance and shrinkage). An integrated hood in the collar will protect you from rain or cold once you get off your two-wheeler.

Smart phone accessories 

With technology omnipresent in our lives, having a suitable phone mount while riding can prove indispensable. The Shapeheart brand stands out by offering the best phone mount for motorcyclists. The innovative mounting system allows you to secure the phone on the motorcycle while keeping it within reach thanks to its magnetic Sleeve. The system therefore offers a clear view and easy access to navigation, all 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 belongings safe and convenient.

Kappa also offers cleverly designed luggage solutions to meet riders' needs, notably the Monokey K40. Its 40L capacity is more than adequate and can hold a full-face helmet or suitcases. Finally, on the team, we're big fans of the Monokey K40's original and very stylish design.

As always, the back-to-school season offers the opportunity for a fresh start. By wisely choosing your gear, from helmets to phone mounts and protective clothing, you can fully enjoy every ride in complete safety. So, gear up properly and get ready for an exciting and worry-free motorcycle season.
