If you're a motorcycle rider who wants to keep your feet dry in wet conditions, but cool and comfortable in hot conditions, Sidi Tour Gore-Tex Boots are one of your best options. These boots have a breathable, waterproof Gore-Tex membrane that keeps your feet totally dry both in the heat and the rain, but at the same time allows your feet to breath so that they don't sweat when it's really hot.

Riding in all kinds of weather is a part of having a motorcycle and few riding pants are better for this than the Telluride Textile Sport Pants from AGV Sport. You can wear these sport pants in colder weather, in warmer weather, and even in nasty rainy weather. You'll also benefit from the superior protection that AGV Sport's motorcycle gear is known for.

Even under cool conditions it can be hot riding a motorcycle in the summer, but the Breeze Perforated Leather Jacket from AGV Sport makes your ride a lot cooler and more comfortable by creating a great deal of air flow around your torso. As the name suggests, it is well-perforated in the chest, on the arms, and in the back for very comfortable summer riding.

Unless you live and ride in either the highest elevations or the northernmost latitudes, there will be times when you need help staying cool on your ride. There are days when vented and even mesh gear don’t quite cut it. This is when a good cooling vest can keep your core temperature to a more comfortable level. It is also important to note that keeping that core temperature at a reasonable level in extreme heat is important for rider safety on multiple levels.

There are some things that you can evaluate about a motorcycle cover straight out of the box. Other attributes take months and seasons of use to assess. I have given the Nelson Rigg UV-2000 as thorough a test as a cover should have.

Spoiler Alert: The Nelson Rigg UV-2000 has proven to be one most durable and useful motorcycle covers I have ever tested.

The OGIO Terminal Travel Bag is definitely among the best travel bags I have ever had the pleasure to review. I use this travel bag for everyday business trips. The internal features kick ass.

The Bear Claw HTR (K587) made by Kenda Tires, made their way onto the 2012 Polaris Sportsman 850 H.O. EFI for review.

EFI.
