Touratech Comfort Seat

Touratech Comfort Seat brought from Rugged Roads. When it comes to comfort the stock seeds is not one of the things that needs some help, and from day one I have been looking at ways to resolve this. On my previous Africa Twin I went to a local upholsterer who replaced the foam and put three layers of memory foam to pad it out which worked really well and at a great cost (£100 for front and back). This time I wanted to go for a seat that was pre-made so I was able to keep the original, so if …

TheftBlock

TheftBlock Motorcycle Disc Lock. Pompey Learninated Review time and this one is a cracking security-related product from TheftBlock The unit arrived within 1 working day, so can happily say they don’t mess around making you wait for your lock. As well as arriving so quick it was extensively packaged, protected with a box within a box and then the lock itself is foam padded, basically there is pretty much no way this is arriving damaged, which all leads to an amazing start from this company. Now to the lock itself, it has some real weight to it, from opening the …

Spoke Protectors

Universal Spoke Protectors Simple but effective solution to them untidy or rusty spokes on your bike is the plastic basic £3 spoke protectors that come in packs of 72 and you cut to size.  They are just a elegant way to enhance the wheels on Adventure Bikes for sure, yep it is a each to there own solution but for me its one that works so well and helps keep things looking good too. They do take a little time to install, a couple of hours from start to finish, that included cleaning the wheels spokes and cutting then fitting …

Ermax Touring Screen

Ermax Touring Screen for Africa Twin CRF1000 The stock screen on the Africa Twin is rather small and once you hit a decent speed (which is to easy lol) the screen really does not help, which lead me onto needing to buy a new screen to help with some protection from the wind and rain, but also went for a light tinted one to help match better with the bike. Now there are so many decent screen and pricing really does range from £60 +, I was very keen on the Givi Air Flow system which is the one I …
