Helmets, clothing and equipment

Motorcycle Clothing and Equipment.  Largely irrelevant now, as this stuff was for use by rental customers.

It is strongly recommended that you bring along your own helmet and personal riding clothing. You know the quality of it, how well it fits and where it’s been.

However I do feel sorry for overseas tourists who appear on my doorstep woefully unprepared, and for this reason I have amassed a collection of odds and ends to help people where I can do so.

Note - I offer no guarantee as to the fit or quality of this clothing. Some of it is brand new and in excellent condition, whilst other items date back to the arc and are getting a bit tatty. Might be regarded as retro cool though.

I reserve the right to make a small charge for some items.

Starting from the top….

Helmets – Full Face
AGV helmet – XS 54 Very small – child / small person
Lazer – white – S 55 / 56, small / medium
Lazer – yellow – S 55 / 56 small / medium
Novak – yellow – S 56 small / medium
Shoei (white) – S 56, only suitable for pillion as the visor is scratched
Novak – green – L 60 large

Please look after my helmet if I supply one to you. Helmets cost £40 to £400 each. When these become damaged I will NOT be replacing them. If a helmet is dropped onto a hard floor, it is supposed to be replaced.
