‘He’ was so close to winning the MotoGP title last year, maybe this year? Either way you’ll notice his signature sunglasses whilst he’s on the grid or being interviewed. They’re made by the 100% Company who also produce the MX/Off-Road goggle range.

Well, you can now also own a pair, imported by TRP (who also import Thor, Airoh, LS-2, Bridgestone tyres and more). There are two styles to choose from, his famous ‘small’ Hudson pair, and now the newest larger sized West Craft option.

Both are beautifully made and come with a hard-shell carry case, and both styles carry the iconic Iridium-tinted lenses. Why not grab a pair before the new season begins?

Price: Hudson R2,100 +/-   West Craft R2,600 +/-

Available from your local 100% dealer. Or, you can try www.bikekings.co.za

If you own any Adventure bike, or Touring bike for that matter, you might be interested in these new powerful units from the UK. Coming from the UK you can certainly guarantee they’re totally waterproof, to say the least.

They emit a potent 2300 Lumens, making them too bright for daytime use, according to our laws that is. We’ve also heard that the guys who’ve installed them are saying they have the strongest and best mounting brackets they’ve come across, enforcing the build quality, and all the cables and connectors are also included.
