I’m far from a competent off-road rider, despite the best efforts of friends, and instructors on various courses. But at least I might look a bit cooler using the new LS2 Charger Goggles with iridium lenses as standard.
There are seven different lens and strap combinations to choose from, ensuring you can pick the right combination to match your riding kit. And they’re also road-legal in the UK, as they’re certified to the EN 1938:2010 standard for motorcycle eyewear. Which is handy if you tend to ride your bike to local trails or a nearby MX track.

The New Weise Recon Jacket
Old army kit has always had a place in motorcycling, whether it’s ex-military bikes being sold off cheap, or boots and jackets picked up from army surplus stores. The new Weise Recon jacket is inspired by that look, but with all the features you’d expect from dedicated motorcycle clothing.
So you get a 600D textile shell, packed with removable Level 1 Re ZRO shoulder, elbow and back armour. And along with the removable 75gsm quilted thermal layer, there’s also a waterproof, windproof and breathable liner. Overall, the Recon is AA certified for safety.
You can find it at your local Weise stockist, which actually includes Halfords. And if it’s not the right choice for you, why not check out all our coverage of motorcycle jackets, including the Weise range.

The new NEXX Y.100R URBANGRAM helmet might have a typically odd name, but offers some eye-catching designs and decent features for just under £200.

And you can’t miss the the three graphics options, with Indigo Blue MT, Nardo Grey MT and Neon Black MT.
So along with the new NEXX Y.100R URBANGRAM Helmet, you get a spare tint or iridium visor, a wind deflector, the removable Go-Pro Mount, and a Pinlock 70 visor insert for £199.99, with sizes XS-XXL available.
