We love the Klim Marrakesh. It's like a mesh jacket on steroids. From a strength and abrasion-resistance perspective, it's as strong a textile jacket as you'll find.
In this review, Chris, the geezer in the cap, talks us through some of Motolegends’ favourite winter jackets. He is, of course, his normal bumbling self, and in this video he seems to get particularly confused about the positioning of elbows and shoulders. But is he getting better in front of the camera? We're not so sure.
The Shoei Neotec 2 is not a new helmet. In fact, it’s been out for almost a couple of years. But we’ve never done a video about it, so Sean thought some people might find it interesting to have us walk through the helmet and how it all works.
When Rukka released the Nivala onto the market a couple of years ago they kind of shot themselves in the foot. And that’s because, even though it was and still is, the most expensive outfit in their range, it was so much better than anything else they produced that the Nivala was the only Rukka suit everybody wanted to buy.
In this review, Chris talks us through Rokker's amazing, single-layer Rokkertech jeans. It's a product that we have championed ever since they were first released. They are, in our view, the world's best riding jeans. And by a country mile.

Your average motorcyclist rides about 5000 miles a year. A high-mileage rider might do 10,000. But the serious commuter can do 20,000 miles a year, sometimes even more. We’re talking about riders who ride 100 miles a day, all year round; come rain, come shine, come the freezing, bloody cold.
Here at Motolegends we spend a lot of time telling our customers that there is no such thing as the perfect motorcycling outfit; that there is no suit that is going to work in all conditions; and that it is the kind of riding that you do that will dictate what kind of suit is going to work best for you.
