Tips to secure your motorcycle

With many bikes stolen in the UK each year, motorbike security should be top of the list for any rider.
Bikes are stolen by joy riders, stolen to order, or stolen to be broken down as parts, and can often be out of the country before you know they're gone. But despite this, less than half of all bikes are protected by bike locks or any other security devices.

Visordown Eazi-Grip Tank Grip Review

Visordown have been trying out our Eazi Grip tank grips on their long-term Kawasaki Z900.
They have posted a review with their thoughts and it's a good read.
"TANK GRIPS on motorcycles have pretty much been around for as long as humans have been trying to eke out as much performance as they can from their machines.
Since day dot, motorcyclists have been pushing their bikes to the limit, and sooner or later, the limiting factor is how well the fleshy bit on top can physically hold on to the damn thing...

Eazi-Grip Supported Westby Racing’s MotoAmerica Round Up

To say that 2020 has been a trying year would be an understatement that being said it showed us just how much potential we have moving forward.
Starting off the season it really took about 2.5 events to get cooking, the new and improved 2020 Yamaha R1 was going to be a challenge but one that would and did pay dividends by season's end. The new engine configuration lent itself to better throttle response, better oiling system and most of all better reliability at the pointy end of the stick. Even fairly choked down by Euro 5 emissions the 2020 Yamaha R1 was clearly the bike to beat. Now that we have some time to develop more engine configurations we should be spot on to battle for a championship in the 2021 MotoAmerica Superbike Series.
