Here’s a new ‘retro’ styled off-road/MX shirt, and pants, that have just attracted our attention. Fly racing is from the USA and used by many top riders, so you can guarantee these are quality-clothing items to say the least.

The pants are made from a heavy-duty anti-tear fabric with a ratchet type buckle fastening around the waist, and silicone stripes inside the waist to help retain the shirt. You’ll also see ventilation ports, internal padding, and room for knee-guards. 

All in all a very nice combination of retro/military styled off-road equipment offering something a little different.

Price: Shirt R570  Pants:R1,500    Purchase from your local Fly dealer.

This new MX/Off-road boot has just arrived in SA, made by Fly Racing products from the USA.

They’re made from a combination of thick leather and heavy-duty ‘plastic’ components and most certainly look sturdy enough to combat any terrain. Three ‘ski-boot’ type buckles secure the boot and the top has an elastic surround to prevent dirt and water entering. We especially like this black/dayglo yellow colour choice.

Why not complement them with a new pair of extra-thick Thor MX socks as well? One of the best things about the Maverik is the entry-level price, because boots like this can become very expensive to buy.

Price: Maverik boot R2.500 +/-  Thor MX socks R350 +/-.

Contact your local Fly/Thor dealer to purchase. Also visit www.flyracing.com for more technical details.

Winter is well and truly upon us, so how about this sturdy new textile jacket from the KTM catalogue to keep you nice and warm?

The Prime Hoody is made from extra thick ‘dry suit’ type material with a mesh liner, heavy-duty cuffs and a thick collar. However the best part is it’s filled with internal body armour, because it’s designed to be used as a genuine sporty riding jacket.

If you own any KTM bike, or any bike for that matter, it’ll certainly be a nice garment to own and wear on all counts, well priced too.
