These new heavy-duty gloves will certainly suit any hard-core Adventure bike rider, or to be more specific Husqvarna riders, maybe?

The palms are made from thick leather and the outside has a ‘rubber like’ soft knuckle protection panel. Wrist protection is also taken care of with a thickly padded neoprene type material.

These new Husky gloves will definitely be ideal for our forthcoming cold winter days, don’t you think, well priced too?

Fly Racing products have been around for quite while now, so they’re riddled with expertise regarding safety equipment, in this case adventure helmets.

This new 2023 Trekker is a more affordable offering, from the USA, but still carries the same components as more expensive options. Inside is a drop-down tinted visor that combines with the full sized clear visor. Three ventilation ports on the chin, top and back of the helmet should keep you cool when the going gets warm.

Three colour options are available and they are: matt black, gloss grey, and a grey/black/white version, an ideal helmet for any new adventure rider.

Price: R3,200 +/-   Check out your local Fly dealer for purchasing.

These new off-road/adventure/MX gloves by Thor from the USA are very nice to say the least.

They have a new D30 soft knuckle protection (www.D30.com), which combines with a four-way stretch breathable backhand material for comfort. They’re also touch screen compatible for the new range of TFT screens, and the like, found on modern Adventure bikes.

We have the camo’ and black colour options here, but there’s also an orange version if you’re a KTM rider. Well worth a look if you’re after new off-road gloves at an affordable price.

Price: R700 +/- available from your local Thor dealer.

If you’re also a big fan of ‘our’ South African hero then you might just want one of these?

This 1:12 scale model of his MotoGP bike is an official KTM item and ‘not’ just some cheap oriental import. It does say it’s for ages over 12 though – so we’ll leave that judgment to you.

All the official Red Bull livery is applied to the model bike, and it even comes with a paddock stand, if you choose to take it out of the box. Either way it’ll certainly look very cool in your bar/pub at home.
