Reflective Wheel Stickers

Pompey Learninated1 Comment

Motorcycle/Car Rim Decal Reflective Stripe Styling Wheel Stickers. This is an odd one to review but hay I thought they were better than others I have seen. I purchased these on Wish.com for a mere £1.90. Yep that’s right…. Like all items from wish, they take ages to arrived but well worth the wait. The come as separate stickers that need to be put onto your wheels, make sure you get all grease and dirt off the wheels before applying. Once these are fitted and it takes a while as each part is its own sticker, so to do a …

LED Auxiliary Light

AliExpress LED aux spot lights. The Gen 2 V-Strom is known for not being able to upgrade the stock Halogen bulbs to LED due to the reflectors, this is why I have added some additional led light systems. One of the sets i use is a dedicated spot light which is wired direct to my high beam, these spotlights are focus to help with giving the best light pattern for seeing on country lanes and are more used on BMW bikes and cost around £200, but these are a cheaper clone of them and costs under £50 all in shipped …

DENALI Electronics Sound Bomb Horn. Must have upgrade to every bikers bike 🙂 yep then crappy stock horns can be so depressing and lame, but lets face it, 5 minutes of your time and some cash, you too can go around giving everyone the real horn, and letting people know you’re there. It’s one of them items that you do need and use often on a motorbike, and having a decent horn is really a matter of life and death at times, and that’s really no joke. The Denali Sound Bomb is a really easy fit, and replaces your stock …

Universal Chain Oiler (Cobra Nemo 2 clone). One of the things all bikers should be doing regularly is making sure our bikes are well looked after and taken care off, this comes as servicing the bike or maintenance. Now one part of that is checking and cleaning and oiling one’s chain for your bike. This can be done at various times people say, but personally I like to do around every 200 miles of use on my bike, Being often this can be an annoying but important task, to which an automatic or manual chain oiler system can safe loads …

Drift Ghost XL Camera by Drift Innovation. I purchased this from SPORTSBIKESHOP a little while ago now and I use this place as they are one of the best online I have found and always deliver without any issues pretty much guaranteed next day each time I order from them even if you order late in the evening. I wanted a new camera system to put onto my helmet easier. I’ve have tried other cameras but this one was the best for the shape and size and how it mounted to your crash helmet as well as other items. Since …

CE Impact Memory Foam Jacket Set from Roadskin. I purchased these items from Roadskin website a little while ago now, and I have used their armour to replace my standard armor in my hoodie which is what I still use most of the time while I ride. The first thing I would say is if you’re looking at Armour to replace or upgrade your stock stuff is to check out the videos about this stuff, as seeing is believing. After seeing the video about how this stuff works i was gobsmacked how good this stuff seemed, and how perfect it …

Motorcycle DVR (DV688)

Pompey Learninated1 Comment

Motorcycle DVR Dash Camera (DV688). This unit costs around £130 for the basic unit and around £150 with the added GPS module, and it’s the best money one can spend on my bike. I am not sure if you have read my past review on its little brother the DV188 but its the same unit but full waterproof including the main unit this time, which is what sets it apart from the DV188. Like any DVR camera system it basic job is to record video why you riding around, with dual 1080p cameras you get front and back video footage …

Motorcycle DVR Dash Camera (DV188). This unit costs around £80.00, and its the best money I have spent on my bikes. Like any DVR camera system it basic job is to record video why you riding around, with dual 1080p cameras you get front and back video footage at a great 1080p rate which is plenty for number plate reading. The unit is easy (most cases lol) to fit, it main unit you mount wherever you like, under a seat (this part is not waterproof but the rest is) or like me next to my windshield screen, so rain doesn’t …

Armor-All Protectant

Pompey Learninated0 Comments

Armor-All Protectant Gloss Finish. This is one of them products I can not live without, if you own any thing that’s made of plastic or rubber then you need this stuff. It’s so easy to use, the 300ml bottle I buy lasts years, and all do is give it a good shake and then spray on a clean rag and wipe over any plastic and rubbers (side walls of tyres are great with this) and allow it to dry, repeat the process if needed but it basically brings any plastic and rubber to look like showroom condition, even if it’s …
