Aero hump or no aero hump? Do you ride on the street, do any track days or are you the hardcore weekend warrior and race? If you ride on the street, the aero hump may be an issue if you ride with a passenger as it can prevent them from holding onto you effectively; otherwise it is a great safety feature. Aero humps are not necessary for track days, as most riders use track days for pure recreation and a back protector will suffice just fine. For the weekend warrior who races, aero humps are absolutely necessary!

Back protector? Never leave home without one; worth their weight in gold! Back protectors are highly overlooked by street riders, but will save your life. Make it a habit to wear one as they do protect your spine to a very high degree.

Zippers matter so look for genuine YKK zippers; stainless steel and nylon based are usually the gold standard.

These high performance race gloves come in standard sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL (US) and are true to form. This means if you’re a medium then order a medium. If you’re a large then a large it is then. No guessing if the glove is going to be too big or too small and waiting weeks for the correct size to be shipped. These sizes should accommodate almost every rider, which is a good thing since we all don’t have the same anatomy. I’ll let you create your own punch line here. Read More...

Motorcycle Race Glove Review Of Komodo Gear Meso Race Gloes

Do you long for the days when men were men, motorcycles were fire-breathing (sometimes literally) and unpredictable , and MotoGP bikes had less electronic whizz-bangs than the Space Shuttle?......Then this might be the jacket for you!

Komodo is a small company that has little interest in being the biggest name in motorcycle gear. That's right they are just fine being a smaller company. Their goal is to build some of the best, highest quality motorcycle gear and sell it at a price point that their bigger competition can't match.

The Komodo Vintage Leather Jacket was one of their first designs and it came from feedback that they were getting from riders that wanted an old school type of motorcycle jacket but with modern protection. No funky designs, no 50 gazillion pockets and zippers everywhere; just a good old fashioned motorcycle jacket. Komodo, being a smaller company, listened to what riders were asking for and made a jacket just for them; try getting a big gear company to do that!
